Hey Cowboy, I fully understand that " doing it because its all you know " thing. Some one asked me yesterday when I was going to retire and I hurt myself laughing.

Heck, Cowboy, you could stop right there and slap a coat of antique on it for a finish. Looks good.

Hey Cowboy, lookin real good there. Camp stools are a good thing to have, especially ones that have been custom built. Your folks will love it. JD

I have often looked at those stools and believed that they could be the penultimate gun cart accessory.
If I did do one (or two *S*), it would be my first leather project since that Boy Scout wallet some four (or was it five) decades ago.

I am not talking about the carving and such ... my plan would be to keep that area covered as much as possible ... how difficult a leatherworking project is it? Good for a rank Beginner?

cowboy316 · July 02, 2009, 05:05:57 PM

Wadd
its a fairly simple kit i just did my own design on it cuz i wanted something orignal
thak care thanks for the kind words pards
