Got a very nice packet today from 702plmo. He was a bit longer in sending it because he took the time to hand-make a couple VERY nice leather items.
The supply of gifts included a Double Bull DVD and a North American Hunting Club book by the Wensels (I'll enjoy looking at both!), a neck lanyard, and a Game Tracker string tracker! I've always thought this was an interesting device, but never thought of buying one. I may well experiment with it on spring turkeys next year!!
Jim SAYS he is new at leather crafting, but the things he included in the Dumbo Drop are really top-notch work. He sent an armguard with a diamond of Rattlesnake skin embedded (made from leather he got from 4nolz), a matching limb tip protector, and even a little possibles bag. If I had a gold coin, I'd put it right in there!!
The final item was a hand-made leather/bead/feather decoration for the rearview mirror that his wife made.
Jim, this is more of a "stash" than I would have ever expected, and I appreciate your craftsmanship and generosity. Thanks for all your effort, and for making this exchange so enjoyable. I hope you did as well with the box that landed at your home!
