Frédéric Vigne Leather

The Dzungar is my go to for form and practice, I think I am getting pretty well now. Next move is to get up to speed with the Jurchen but it’s a 20# jump, it will take time to really be comfortable and then accurate.
And the Simurgh, this one is perhaps a Christmas goal!

Thank you @sanders.senate.gov , @aoc.bsky.social , @booker.senate.gov , @warnock.senate.gov and a very few other democrat politicians for working in the interest of the people. I am not sure where most of your colleagues are, they might be somewhere though. Not sure.

It usually does yes, I don’t know if all of their bamboo recurves are best for them ring though because they are very long and therefore you cannot do much of a khatra. I made peace with shooting the Jurchen with 3 fingers. But it’s also a 53# and I have arthritis so I don’t want to hurt myself!

@sarmat archery stuff is spectacular isn’t it? I have a Dzungar and a Jurchen plus a variety of arrows. But the one I have my eyes on in their laminated Simurgh!

Well if this is the only impact, it only enhances tourists stupidity, not NPS struggles.

You are absolutely correct! I was not tech savvy 30 years ago, I didn't even know what online meant, but I see your point.

I agree wholeheartedly, senator. Yet I somhow hope this will happen since a lot of folks who voted thses creeps into office are actually on some sort of welfare. See how they love their small government now!

That's how resistance operates.
How it does not? Social media postures.

Politics is like a dead star projecting light from the far end of the universe. Politics is at best dormant and maybe dead. Politics supposes a conversation but there is none right now. Now is the time for ideology and brute force. #politics

I haven't been shooting a video in the studio in a while, therefore this is already an oldie, but the behind the scenes varies very little. It's all about measuring, trimming, assembling and, of course, hand-stitching. #leathercraft #qualityoverquantity #handcrafted #vegetabletannedleather

I guess I should introduce myself! I am Frédéric, born and bred in France and in Turkiye (only for a couple of years as a child). Moved to Ohio in 2013 and never left! But we are who we are and leather is in my blood: I learned from my father 4 decades ago. Then life happened...
