Sporran #2 WIP

[Eleazar]

Did you say something about trades in a earlier post?

I really like the simplicity and focus on detail. Very nice.

The detail you show is really great for those of us who would like to do some work like that. And your technique is unique.

But the final product is beautiful. I really like your ideas of taking the basic military style sporran and making it something more. What you end up with is something really nice.

Thanks for all the photos.

Thank you for the very kind words. As a craftsman, I'm coming from a completely foreign place. I have only the smallest family connection to Scotland and being in a community that was, less than 100 years ago, declared "The German Athens".

It's gratifying to hear that I've succeeded to some degree.

Thank you. I've always been a big fan of simple. It is usually deceptively so. Things lacking ornament show every flaw. Minimalism is very hard to do well. With less stuff to 'entertain' the eye, it wanders to any perceived flaw or variation in line or proportion.

As we used to say in design "Next-to-nothing costs a LOT more than lots." You have to place the emphasis in the proper spot for it to make sense.

BTW: PM sent.
