Amature Leather Work for Trade

Postby Torix » Mon Jul 04, 2011 4:39 pm

So I'v been learning how to make leather armor, and am starting to have a small collection of pieces that iv made. I was just curious as to if anyone might be interested in trading something for them at CW.

First up is a prototype mask I made

It doesn't have any straps to attach it to your head, but it does have 2 holes punched that you could thread a shoelace or something through.

While i would love to use it/wear it, it causes horrible fogging of my glasses.

Thats all for now- more to come later.

What is the material of each piece? Are they armor grade? Veg tan?

Details.

Ahh yes.

it looks to be ~3/16 inches thick depending on where i measure, so yes, armor grade. I dont know how it was cured exactly, but it is very hard for water to get into it- it takes about 30 mins to an hour in warm water to be workable (even the inside is cured) It feels like it has been baked even tho it hasnt. The part thats stitched on the nose is the same thickness, but a softer leather- feels like veg tan (its not armor grade 'hardness' until baked tho it is armor grade thickness)- could bake it if requested. All stitched with double threaded (2 threads thick for each stitch) wax thread.

I dont know what im looking for- just seeing if anyone is interested in offering for it. I cant really use it, but i figure someone prolly can and they might have something interesting to trade for it. (maybe another piece of armor- maybe something to add to my garb- maybe something else)
