That soft rifle case is the nicest I've ever seen.I'am having one made out of cow leather that is very similar to yours and is nearly complete.Where did you get the leather dyed?

Vandyboy,
Would you tell us who made the sjamboks and pencil holder for you?

The Wildlife Gallery did my mounts from my '08 trip to Zimbabwe. They made the Sjamboks and pencil holder as well. They also made some very nice pillows from some of the back skins as well.

Murray Custom Leather made the case.

But the skin was imported as a salted hide from Africa and tanned and dyed at Specialty Leather Processors.

I put the tusks in the table and built the caps myself, I'm afraid as you see it there is no way it would have made it being shipped in a crate.
