A "Guess what I am going to make" & then a "work in progress" thread!

[jojo]

See how long it take people to guess!

Leather, about 6ft long by 3" wide. That's all you're getting for now...

I'll add some pictures as I get along with the project. It might take a while as I haven't made one before.

Im all "a quiver" with anticipation...

Isn't a baldric a small metal button for attaching a scabbard to a belt? I remember the wry look on Tony Robinson's face when he explained this on Time Team...

A chastety belt

Hmmm, I know it as the cross shoulder belt that holds a sword or a knife.
William Wallace made his from the skin he stripped from the man who 'insulted' his wife. From the nape to the heel, it is said.
"A belt, usually of ornamented leather, worn across the chest to support a sword or bugle.

Seems you are quite right - I must have misheard him - perhaps he'd found the button that attached the scabbard to the baldrick?

 

[Toddy]

Maybe, but it's usually called a frog.
Don't know what the button thing's called, you might well be right too

cheers,
