Making leather masks for Dread Pirate Roberts costumes

Описание: Leather masks are our best selling item in our Etsy store. This particular mask design is our Deluxe Dread Pirate Roberts mask. The mask process is pretty simple - cutting, beveling, shaping, painting, and in this case a bit of sewing.

This finished mask is also available for purchase at https://bransonsgeneralstore.etsy.com...

I am always working on building something and try to average a YouTube video once a week. Most often leather work, but I have also posted videos on black smithing, knife making, casting, and even how I make soap.
