shot and ball bag set

[sms77]

Just made a couple of bags this weekend. Both are made from deer rawhide I made myself. I soaked the rawhide in walnut dye to turn it brown and loosen it up. The spouts are made from bamboo that I stained in red mahogany set with beeswax and wrapped with linen cord. The stitching is waxed linen cord. I also rubbed neatsfoot oil in to keep the bag loose and let it stretch a little. The ball bag holds about 40 .600 round ball. The shot bag holds about 8 ounces of #7 shot. All that is left is to make a couple of stoppers for the tops. Please feel free to critique.

Well done, I don't like working with wet rawhide but it is a must when you are making something from the slimy stuff. You did real good.
