I posted this thread over in Sheaths and Such. Felt there might be some folks here that would really enjoy this read:

Fascinating stuff, Dave! I always enjoy your knife-centered threads here in traditionals, so it was cool to see a bit more of your leather work. Thanks for sharing!

Amazing work Dave! It’s like stepping back in time seeing the work you do.

That's a great WIP! Thanks for sharing.

My granddad cowboyed up around what's now Ft Peck back around turn of the century. He had a pair of woolly chaps (I'm pretty sure they were sheepskin) and said you really needed them come winter if you had to ride. Haven't thought of that in way too many years.

Thanks eisman. Woolies are very warm! They've been made out of about every hide there is that would work. Here is a link to another WIP I did couple of years back on a pair done with bear:
