Otto6294 Report post Posted May 24, 2015 I started this a couple weeks ago. Made the pattern out of poster board. 8/9 oz veg tan laminated to 4/5 oz veg tan backing. I have the holster face and knife sheath completed and ready to stitch to the leather harness. Trying to carry the inlaid alligator print design over to the harness surface....that was a lot of tooling. It took the dye really nicely. You cane see where the holster front and knife will be mounted. I was going to do bullet loops. but I don't want to cover up the tooling. I may make a removeable cartidge carrier for the strap. Thanks for looking. Otto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otto6294 Report post Posted September 26, 2015 I believe it is called a seeder for doing the inside of flowers. Makes a single dot and takes a good while for full coverage. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
