  1. It will work fine, promise. I do the same thing with the kits, can't stand round holes for flat lace. If it does have a problem "flipping open", before you lace it together wet down the fold lines and put a book on it or something and let er sit for a day and it will stay, don't groove it though just wet it, fold it, weight it, dry it. Hope this helps. Peace Bryan
  2. Don't know if you have a dollar store around you anywhere but I recently found a bunch of flexible plastic placemats that are excellent for patterns, flexible and strong enough to last for decades Peace Bryan
  3. What kind of kit are you looking for?
  4. I have the same problem only my wife thinks the money from my "hobby" should go to bills and her "jewelry business" should go back into the business. B

  7. There are two pattern sets just for cuffs on the Pattern and templates section by an awesome guy named Jim. I attached them but I don't know if it worked. If you can't get them to download let me know and I can e-mail them to you Peace Bryan P.S. if you go to his website he has some AWESOME tutorials on holsters.

  8. Howdy from Utah, and welcome, lots to see here.
  9. I use a sharpie ultra fine point, the white case ones not the new fangled black ones because they bead up and smear. Bryan
  10. Ok all you saddle makers, I replied on a post this morning about stamping and carving on wet moulded stuff and told the person to ask the saddle makers because to me doing a swell would be the same thing. After posting this I have been cruising LW and the web for what seems like days trying to find ANY information that might help. NUTHIN. ANYWHERE. Can some of you explain your process for those of us that are dumbfounded. Pretty Please. With sugar on top. Many Thanks Bryan
  11. Thanks Jim, i for one sure do appreciate that you are so generous with all of your knowledge and patterns. Hope you know how big of a help it is to us. Peace and love Bryan
  12. Translation from Bing "Only wet form, nice crop, and glaetten....dann about Holzform Evert (you hates the form even if you wet first...?) Fix Holzform on solid hard ground and stamp / punzieren! Finish auftrage...It works just fine, if the pieces are not too large! > > > guad ischs...gell hanno! Gruessle of Virginia" I say ask the saddle makers they stamp and carve on swells all the time, couldn't be much differant than stamping on a mould.
  13. OK, first and foremost, AWESOME JOB, second you're way to hard on yourself, third you can still antique over super sheen I've done it lots. Last there is a lesson to be learned. Always always cover the non painted area with something the paint or stain can't go through. I use saran wrap and cut out an area the size of the design and then go to paintin. Oh yeah if your mom doesn't want it send it to me and I'll make sure my wife will throws it away in about fifty years when it's worn out. Peace and Love Bryan
  14. I'll bite, info would be good. Plus PLEASE post when you have found someone please. Peace Bryan
