Backup

#1 Post by stumper »

Well last night I brought the new bow to Will’s house and in his words “that’s the most bad ass bow you have” and I completely agree. Well after flinging a few arrows in the dark and a refreshing bowl of pipe tobacco I was on my way home. Shortly after arriving back at my residence I realized I had forgot my glove and arm guard at wills house. Right now I have no spare so what’s a guy to do??? How about delve into leather crafting. Remembering that I had a few swatches of test leather in my toolbox I decided to go ahead and fashion myself a tab. Disclaimer: I am not leather craftsman, but now I have a back up in my quiver if I loose my glove again.

Good job! Be sure to test drive it in case you ever have to use it. Don’t want no suprises. And sorry; ain’t no way it’s fancy as the duct tape glove!
