Chief31794 Report post Posted November 7, 2013 Made a lot of holsters but never one this style. Took some layout time and learning curve but I like this type of holster. Next one will be much better. Chief Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mlapaglia Report post Posted November 9, 2013 Looks good, Nice stitch line along the trigger guard. Good color. I see you made the same "mistake" I always do. On the reenforced piece where you cut the edge to fit on the front side. The leading edge is not burnished to the same quality as the rest of the edges. I do that almost every time. Other than that you really did nice work. The comment about the cut edge is not criticism, it just struck me as funny that someone else did the same thing I did. Keep it up. Ya done good.

Chief31794 Report post Posted November 10, 2013 Michael, Thanks, I agree and thanks for the comment. I burnished the edges before molding the holster but then after it was moulded I did another "final" burnishing because the thorough wetting from the moulding "loosened" the edges, so then after sewing and dying, I went back and really put the work in the on the edges but it was very difficult to get around the support piece. I'll have to sand them more after assembly and burnish them better as well. Chief Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
