Paying it forward - free to a good home.

UPDATE: Spoken for.

Kind of surprised no one commented on The Artificer's fine work on the refurb. The colours are really rich and deep. Looks great with my predominantly brown/red MacDuff Hunting Modern kilt.

Ach, weel.

I just saw this, mate! Scott did a superb job (as expected) on the refurbishment! That sporran is absolutely gorgeous; love the colouring (very earthy, of which I am quite fond). Well done on paying the remaining bits forward. You're a good man, John.

Cheers,

I just came to this too. What a nice thing to do! And your refurbished hairy is dazzling. I want one...

I didn't comment at the time because I considered the post a bit like a 'for sale' post, leaving it to those who were actually interested in the item.

I absolutely love that sporran, as I do with your other Artificer sporran!

I must confess when I first clicked on your post I had read from the title that it was a 'paying it forward' item, but my eye was immediately drawn to the photo, so for about a second I thought that your Artificer sporran was what was up for grabs and my heart leapt!

...then I read the text and came crashing back down to earth

Please don't ever do that to me again!

Sorry, Calgacus. I obviously didn't wish to mislead and hadn't read it that way until you pointed it out. Again, I apologise. Oops.

No worries, who could foresee that anyone would be daft enough to think you'd ever want to part with such a beauty

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Scott's work is marvellous.

Very kind of you to pass on these pieces to a good home. Well done, sir.

The parcel is winging it's way to Thomas H courtesy of the Royal Mail.

If his end result is as fine as his cromachs, as I am sure it will be, his new DIY sporran will be very nice, indeed.

Cheers!

Thank you so much kind Sir , I will post pictures when it is done. I will let you know. Again thank you for your generosity!
I may pay it forward with a cromach soon too. As to follow your example.
