Stupid Rawhide rims....
#2
I have been thinking about using rawhide on my second shield someday, (sighs whistfully)

What type of thread were you using?
And what weight?
Did it break during construction or later during usage, transit?

With plain tanned leather edging I've so far had good luck using the waxed linen chord from the beading section at Walmart.
