Sporran makers

I think the gussett is not the front panel of the sporran, nor the back panel of the sporran, nor the flap of the sporran, but the 2" (or so) strip that separates the front and back panels.

Does that make sense? I think that's what the gussett is, but I'm waiting for coffee to brew, so I might still be in the spirit world.

It's the strip of leather that joins the front panel to the rear panel and gives the sporran depth.

BTW, if your boar's tusks are big enough they'd make a great handle for a sgian dubh.

My Kilted Half has been a bit remiss in following up (that's part of what *I* am around for, right?

His latest thought process is to have just the 'front' of the sporran made from the Ugly Piggie, although how the shot(s) land at the time will dictate exactly what is rendered useable.

He said he keeps meaning to get back to you on this.... (nudge nudge, Dear

Hortense and Guss got married early. They tried for years to have children. All efforts failed. They finally went to a baby making speciallist for treatments, and nine months later their son was born.

Hortense and Guss were so proud, that they named the baby boy Guss Junior. But all the cousins, just called him Gusset!
