Matt would you believe that despite me reducing the sizes to enable the pics to fit they still wouldnt load, its a shame because i had to chop so much off the originals the overall effect has been lost so i will have to take more pics, when i have done i'll send them to u. cheers bud

One greave fully complete now. Lined with brown felt, and I used brass strips with loops to tie the leather thong to.

Nice job Magnus - they look like they will be pretty comfortable to wear with the lining.

Yeah, they're not bad...I had to play around with bending them so they were a bit more snug, but I'm happy.

First Of all I'd like to say great job, you should be very proud.
Are you using a course felt lining or something softer?

It's a medium courseness I suppose. Not the tightes felt weave I've seen, but it does the job.

Didn't fancy a bit of the old sheep skin? Where did you find the felt?
