This past Christmas, I got involved in the Fools With Tools Treasure Trade. A lot of makers from the Facebook group Fools With Tools gathered to play Secret Santas.
I received an awesome gift from the very talented prop maker Karolien Hinz, and I needed to make one for Rasmus Loen Steensguaard, an also very talented blacksmith from Norway (check his channel here: / axrac .
When I heard he likes Lord of the Rings, I decided to make him a pair of leather arm guard/bracers/vambraces. In the movie, when Boromir dies, Aragorn starts wearing Boromir's arm guards and I thought it would be nice to make Rasmus these vambraces, as a symbol of friendship.
I used 2.6mm vegetable tanned leather and 2mm cow hide. Once everything was ready, I died the leather brown, and stitched the hide with my sewing machine. Then it was a simple assembly, stitching by hand all around the first piece and three layers.
I really like making thing for others and I think they turned out pretty well. Rasmus seems to like them, so I'm happy.
