Course Overview

Sure, you can go to the store and buy one of these, but it’s much more satisfying to the soul to build one from start to finish using raw materials of the highest quality. The canvas and leather firewood sling is an excellent beginning project to learn the history of canvas and leather construction, from canoe packs to modern day messenger bags. Learn the skills needed to build this useful item, perfect for hauling wood and displaying on the wall. Starting with a brief history of canvas and leather and introduction to techniques, we’ll work step-by-step to cut, sew and hand-rivet this eminently functional piece you can use, abuse and proudly show off for years to come.
