🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 5 star review from Rybjor: great pattern

This pattern is very user friendly and easy to understand. Has alot of potential for costume if useing thinner leather but is really protective when using heavy leathers that are wax hardened. I used this pattern with 10oz veg tan hardened with beeswax and rivited steel plates for steel fighting, they work very well for full contact

This was a fun project to do. I’m new and this was the second thing I made. I added the little sling at the bottom as it holds a lightsaber hilt!

🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 5 star review from Sophia Uldriks: One of my favorite new bags

I have made several other Dark Horse patterns. This one was quick and easy to make. It took me maybe 2 hours to hand cut and hand stitch. I plan on throwing it on the laser engraver in the next week or so.

You can find the links to these inexpensive little tools in the first comment of this video.

I’ve discovered two awesome tools for edge burnishing that I’m excited to share with you all! First up is a Bingo-Style Marker, perfect for filling with diluted Tokonole. The second is a Chisel Tip Paint/Dye Pen for precision application. Say goodbye to the frustration of awkwardly applying Tokonole to your edgesβ€”these tools make the process smooth, efficient, and mess-free!

Just a quick video to remind everyone that I have a BLACK FRIDAY Sale on with 50% OFF all of my Individual Patterns as well as my Viking Art Packs.

On top of that I've decided to release what was the pattern that started it all for me. My first every Pattern release that really made me realize I could do this whole YouTube thing. Thanks for all the support.

Be sure to check the comments of this video for links and coupon codes.

Over the past year, I’ve had the chance to work extensively with three incredible 40W laser engravers: the WeCreat Vision, XTool S1, and Creality Falcon2 Pro. In this video, I’ll break down how they compare to help you decide which one is the best fit for your needs. Whether you’re looking for precision, versatility, or value, I’ve got you covered!

Take your time, read the entire pattern, watch the build videos, make a plan on how yours will look, put it to action. As long as you follow your plan, it doesn't matter which piece of the armor you start with. Make it your own, put your own family crest in the Cuirass if you want.
