thanks thunder moon. i wanted it to come out longer but at the time i only had those 4 hides. one of these days i'll get around to making it longer or making another one. the hat was made for me by a guy named little griz out of kansas. if you ever meet him you'll never be the same just a funny story i think some will enjoy. the other day i was smoking some hides, and since i have moved i aint got everything set up right yet. so i built me a tri pod and wrapped the hide around the tri pod and built my fire in a bucket under the tri pod. so anyhows the hide was not wide enough to wrap all the way around the tri pod and i had a big ole opening that i was losing alot of smoke. looking for anything that would fill the hole i saw my coat lying there and would you believe it was the right size. so i got my hide smoked and now there is a spot on the inside of my coat that is darker than the rest

Real nice coat Billy! That's the next project on my buckskin clothing to-do-list. Every time I get some nice hides done, someone wants to buy them. That's the way it goes!! Dave

Whats better than skin to skin??? Nothing but.....Braintan to skin is a close second !!!! Cool in the summer cause it wicks moisture away from the body,, feels like velvet, insulates in the winter.
