I want to make a sporran out of bear skin, whith the bear's paw as the flap... I figure the weight of the pads and claws will hold it shut without the need to use any kind of fastener. (Unless I was doing cartwheels, which I probably won't be doing in a kilt anyway)
I was wondering if anyone knows a way that I could get ahold of a template that I could use for cutting the bearskin into a proper shape for a good sporran. If worse comes to worse I would dismantle a professionally made sporran to use as a guide, but I would prefer not to have to dismantle a perfectly good sporran.
