Attached are photos of a snuff case/holster.

This was a learning idea as a new wet molding project, while stacking up some Xmas presents for friends.

In the molding process progress, I'm looking for everyday things that can become the mold. This is a piece of 2.5 inch pvc cap (exactly the right size for snuff can) and a piece of 3 inch pvc pipe for the outer mold. so the mold cost all of 75cents and a few minutes to cut the pipe to the right height.

Knifed out and sanded after machine sewing. The belt slot is for a 1.5 inch belt, dyed and sealed. I burnish my edges with a popsicle stick while wet with dye and later sealer. If I really go all out I'll add some shoe polish to the edges!

That pvc size looks like it would mold a nice size coin purse. Next?

Looks great! I wish I could get my molding to look that smooth. the only thing I would do diffrent ( being a chewer myselff) would be to add some sort of retaining strap to hold the can in so it can not fall out.

Just a thought.
