Default RE: spurs again.....

ORIGINAL: mauser06

you leave your skin on the legs maytom?? i took mine off and thats when they fell apart...but i could sworn i seen that done on here by members...my one set turned out fine..it was 3yrs ago i dont remember what i did with them though......i glue my beards into the shotgun shell brass that killed them..put an eye through the primer....and sting it on leather lace with a spur on each side.....wish i didnt ruin the spurs from 2yrs ago....im trying not to make that mistake again...you let your whole legs dry out for 3-4 months with the skin on correct?
Mauser06, yes, I leave the skin on the legs. I just let them dry naturally for about 3-4 months. They get rock hard by then and the spurs are much easier to cut offat that time. I never had a single problem with the skin comming off the legs, or the spurs falling off? I like the look with the skin on, some don't. To each is own though, just boils down to personal preference I guess.
