All the best

Hi Nap, have you thought about the throw away bits of etched brass sets, I have some that I could make into about 2.2 mm wide, 2 pieces 110mm long and 2.2mm wide, it is only about half a mm thick but should hold its shape with a small amount of weight on it.
 
Hi Guys

All uniform done ...less buttons

All leather work done ...less decoration on main belt ..Lots of different variations in leather !

No pics for that its all clinfilmed ...tease eh!!

But I gave got one sort of ...the small pouch and sknnng knife ...lots of beadwork added ..pic not really showing it ! ..the pouch will be on a red cord ..a little bit of colour in amongst all that green .
