I tend to be bit lazy when leatherwork is concerned, but not because I do not enjoy it. Yesterday I found my resolve and made this belt pouch... it´s still not perfect and has to see quite some refinement still, but as is, I like it. It´s overbuilt with at least 3mm thick vegetable tanned leather, but I like to be rather safe than sorry.
I have to do this more! ;-)
Those are the adventures of Mr. Fimbulmyrk, in bushcraft and blacksmithing, mountainbiking and hiking, reenactment, writing, singing, dancing, stargazing and having a piece of cake and a coffee. Pray have a seat and look around you, but be warned - the forest´s twilight is ferocious at times.
