Brain tanned
« on: October 12, 2015, 10:53:00 am »
I'm needing some small pieces of thin(very thin) brain tanned leather, something that is too thin for your project. I only need scraps.
 I've got all sorts of stuff to trade like poplar shafts, hill cane a bit later in the year, etc.

I have a few cut off pieces. They aren't very big though, so tell me what size you're looking for.

Scott, I'm making a buckskin outfit for a 14" tall figure so I really don't need much but thin scraps sounds about right. I'm making leggings and a war shirt for it.
 Let me know what you want in trade.

Pat, I also have some scraps if you need them.

Unless you are making a Voodoo Doll of me...:-)

No voodoo here.    ;)    I'm making a set of buckskins for a 14" tall figure. Thin pieces and irregular edges are preferred.

Unfortunately, my scraps aren't gonna work. Im afraid they are too small and stiff to be of any value. Hope you can help him Lyman.

Pat! I'll take a chance on the VooDoo.....PM me your address and I'll send you some.

Give me an idea how big the pieces need to be....I'm guessing a 14 inch doll would have 6 inch waist to feet? Let me know.

I got a nice bunch of brain tanned scraps from Lyman(nclonghunter). Thanks Lyman. What you sent should work well.
