Workshop Description: Be the envy of your hunting partners and join the hunt in style! Construct a new sling for your rifle using brown-toned alligator for the front side and smooth cowhide (don’t forget your maker’s mark stamp!) on the back. Finish off the look with some nice stitching (hand or machine), some Chicago screws, and you’ll be ready for whatever comes your way. {You’ll be using the COBRA MP Burnisher and COBRA Class 26 sewing machine; if you are interested in purchasing COBRA equipment at the show, call Leather Machine Company by February 1 to pre-order at +1 (866) 962-9880. Deposit required.}
Materials to bring: Notebook, pencil/pen and questions. Cameras and video are welcome. You will need a cutting mat, knife and scissors. If you prefer to hand-stitch your item you will need your pricking irons, needles, mallet, a pounding board, stitching pony, etc. Don’t forget your maker’s mark if you have one.
Workshop Instructor: Broderick Vaughan owns Vaughan Gators in Tallahassee, Florida. What started as a new hobby for an avid lifetime hunter turned into a full-time job as a nuisance alligator trapper for the Florida Wildlife Commission. After a decline in the international alligator hide market in 2016, Broderick began tanning all of his own hides at Sebring Custom Tanning. The unique experience of being a part of the entire production process, from capturing the live alligator to making the finished goods, is what led him to develop a passion for leatherwork.
Workshop Sponsors: Leather Machine Co. LLC, Renia USA, and Vaughan Gators
