Step 7Assembling The Back
Center Index the cross brace and screw it in from the back.
Coat the back with titebond 3 and center the arm piece leather on it. Run some additional screws through the arm piece prior to gluing on the shearling.
I riveted a hanging strap on at the last minute.
Use the dividers set at 1" to pattern out the edge for the upholstery tacks.
Trim the long latigo straps and secure them with upholstery tacks.
For all purposes this shield is done, but I wanted to try a new technique on the front for more detail.
