Workshop Description: Let’s make an arm bracer with exotic snapping turtle tails! In this course, you’ll learn how to produce a custom-sized bracer template with inlay design. This includes learning what measurements to take and how to use those to create a unique template with some clever templating techniques I’ve picked up over the years. I’ll also be showing you how to prep snapping turtle tails for assembly. If you ever wanted to delve into armor or costume making, this is the class for you.
Materials to bring: Cutting mat, punch board, utility knife or box cutter, steel ruler (12in or 18in), mechanical pencil, curve stencils, favorite stamps, rivet setting rod, hole punch, mallet, anvil or small slab, wing divider, and a spray bottle, edge beveler, slicker or canvas.
Workshop Instructor: Brandon Corral, owner of Swift Hammer Leather, designs unique luxury leather items that are in high demand among his target customer group. He’s been able to build this audience, and his brand, on a minimal budget by creating highly engaging and interactive content that legitimizes his premium pricing. He actively mentors other artists on how to boost their sales through their social media channels for little to no money.
