Rick Skinner Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 I just finished this cartridge pouch based on this picture I found in "The British Army 1660-1704" By John Tincey & Gerry Embleton. 1691 King William's Army Musketeer.
michaelsbagley Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Bueatiful as always Mr. Skinner! Can I ask what you used for the toggle? It's kind of hard to tell from those photos... Wood? Bone? Antler? Tightly rolled pale leather?

Antler? Tightly rolled pale leather? Piece of wooden dowel I had laying around. It will do for now. I have not found the "right" button yet. I thought about using gold coin as a button, but that may be too flashy. Maybe I'll use a human finger bone from a bag of Bucky Bones. Thanks for the compliments everyone.
callenish gunner Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 very nice work indeed ....did you make that with interior pockets or dividers? plans to make more perhaps?
Rick Skinner Posted August 1, 2008 Author Posted August 1, 2008 My orginial patterns did include pockets inside, but changed my mind. However, I may modify this one in the future. I'm currently working on my first leather bottles, so modifications to the pouch is on the back burner for now. Making more? The thought has crossed my mind.
