    He said he shipped mine a couple of days ago, so I'm expecting it probably next week, assuming no problems with Customs. You never know with that bunch.

    Although I can't locate it just now (being on a different computer), I believe those are the same pix he sent me as an "average" example of condition, with the caveat that some might vary. I'm also very much looking forward to receipt of the actual piece!

    OK, now for the (possibly stupid question) what is the best low tech way (for the money poor among us) to go about making one of these lovely cantles on our own.

    looks like quite a decent MkIV. Solid soldering (no gigantic gloopy soft solder repairs) no major corrosion. A veritable steal for $55US delivered.

    I emailed him to see if he had any MkI cantles about, but he doesn't.

    I have two on the way now from Robin!

    It's what makes XMarks so awesome! I'd missed this thread but a kindly XMarker gave me a heads-up.

    And if Artificer is willing I'd love to send one of these MOD cantles to him, and get something like this...




    Actually without the small bottom tassel, and with the centre tassel doubled, as Artificer has done on some other Culloden sporrans.

    The Culloden sporran I already have, seen below, is in the hands of a sporranmaker who has had it a year. I don't know when if ever I'll get a sporran from him.
