its been slow around these parts for awhile.
as many of yall may know i've been without a compooter for sometime and aint been able to keep up with the going on's around here.but that aint kept me from tanning hides and making groovy stuff out of them.
here is a picture of a shot pouch i made from braintanned buckskin. it is dyed in black wal nut hulls and lined with russian sheeting. i did the simple bead work with black and white 6/0 beads. powder horn made by my good friend allen harrison and the stopper was made by our good friend cody the patriot. i drilled out the deer horn powder measure to hold 50 grains of the all so holly black powder. i made the knife sheath copied from a old a.j. miller painting. its made from veg tan leather. i gave it a good rub down with some good ole bear oil. the knife is a original wilson butcher knife. the small brain tan pouch has blue and white 6/0 beads and holds my arkansas wet stone. i made the belt from a old saddle and put a will ghormley's brass hand of God buckle on it. allen made the oval strike and the "turnscrew"
