Howdy pards..
I wonder what thickness you have on the leather for the avenger and pancake? On this one I used 2.5-3mm leather and it was easy to
bone and form. I was making one more today and that leather was from the same hide but 3.5-4mm and it come out like sh*t
It was hard to work with and allmost impossible to form, dont want to show it here, will sell it to some blind guy..
