Equipment making

[Puddle]

Hi people

Just wondered if there is any books or web pages that shows you how to make your own leather equipment eg: hoods, jesses and so on as I have just been though 10000 results on the web and getting pretty board :x

Not so sure about hoods, but anklets and jessies are a doddle to make, all you need is some good leather, good pair of scissors, hole punches (I find the ones you hit with a hammer are best) and a eyelet tool. Just make sure you make em the correct size.

Glasiers book gives relatively simple instructions on making a basic anglo indian hood and how to make a glove.

Hi,

There is a book called "Falconry Equipment" by Bryan Kimsey and Jim Hodge. It show how to make most falconry equipment including jesses, hoods,falconry bags/vests and gloves along with numerous other pieces of equipment.

I don't know where it is available in the UK but I got my book from Mikesfalconry.com (http://www.mikesfalconry.com/product.asp?specific=jnpofpq0)
