Making a Black Jack, Traditional English Leather Beer Mug, From the Ground Up

In this project I attempt to rekindle a lost art, just what I like doing! Only so much is known about how leather mugs, bottles and pitchers were made, so the project was a relative success considering. I learned about them originally from John Waterer’s book Leather and Craftsmanship ( ). The black jack is fun to drink from, light, and seems pretty durable. No, there is no weird taste.
