This thread NEEDS PICTURES of your work please..
O.K., here you go.....finally got one done and got some photos of it. Wish I could take credit for the idea/design, but I found it in an article in The Backwoodsman magazine a few years back. Been meaning to make one for a while, and have been working on it off and on.
This one will be for my lead shot; I'm making another one to carry nontoxic shot in for waterfowling/hunting lands requiring nontoxic shot.
I added the beadwork just to give it a more "personal" touch. The bag itself is made of scrap leather that I had from a pair of moccasins I made, and the spout is made from a 1"-3/4" copper reducer I got from Lowe's. It's attached to the bag with copper wire from a disposable medical device I scavaged from the garbage at work. I've made 3 'dippers' for it for various charges of shot: 1 oz, 1 1/8 oz, and 1 1/4 oz. Right now it's holding some #6 shot.
