    New home made Badger sporran



    This is a Badger head sporran I made from a pelt my sons gave me for a birthday present. First time attempt at taxidermy but the bag was made from scrap leathers and the brass cantle is an address number (#0) cut in half and bolted back together over the leather work. I bought the tassels from L&M. Very roomy this one.

    Well done, shinenotburn. Perfect proportions. I particularly like your rebuild of the nose to take the handling that accompanies searches for what's inside.

    The nose is one piece of soft leather folded and molded while wet over the existing snout, much of which was missing. Expandable Gorilla glue help fill out the gaps. I do have to compliment my son for picking out such a nice pelt and attractive mask.

    An absolute sterling job on the sporran and quite frankly one of the best full face badger ones I have seen
