So 6 and a half inches to be on the safe side. So if the width is 20 inches, that translates to a circle with a diameter of 6,4 inches. You do this by taking the width of the leather sheet you cut out in the previous step and calculating the diameter of the leather circle you need to cut out to make your bottom. Use the excess leather to laying around to make the bottom of your quiver. If there is any excess leather left lying around you save it. I prefer scissors since it’s easier but it’s more likely you have a boxcutter knife laying around. You can use a standard box cutting knife or scissors designed to cut leather. Step 3Ĭut out the leather according to your measurements. You will be overlapping the leather sides in the following steps. Make sure when you are marking out the dimension on the leather sheet to leave out an extra inch or two in the width. That should give you a nice circumference of 6 to 8 inches to hold your arrows. So the length of the leather sheet is the arrow length minus 4 to 5 inches. As you can see in this article here, you don’t need that many arrows. The width of the quiver depends on how many arrows you want to fit in the quiver. The length of the leather sheet should be your arrow length minus 4 to 5 inches. Once you have the length you go to the next step. That’s going to be the length of your quiver. You measure your arrows from the tip of the arrowhead to the nock.Īfter you get the length of the arrow, you subtract 4-5 inches. Now there are outliers but the vast majority of archers will have arrows of that size.
