  1. There are many designs used on older black powder guns taht would apply to your guns. Search on line for them, many reanctors of the Old west and earlier times ,have made these types using leather.
  2. Nice tips on the tools. I like the Olfa rotary type seems it would take less downward pressure to hold in place. Thanks all
  3. Cutting a perfect circle, to make a disc is difficult. Other than a stamp cutter what methods or techniques are known to do it ? The size I want to cut is about 2" to 3"
  4. OK ! good three letter answer. only said pigskin cuzz don't know other soft leather that won't be rough on gun metal. Will give veggie tan try. Thanks
  5. I'm about to do a lining for a holster and have concerns about wet molding after assemby. I have made several holsters without the lining and wet molded those to fit the firearm. I'm reading here that contact cement is a good way to attach the lining , but what am I up against with the moisture ? I want to use a light oz soft leather .......like pig skin ? Ideas ? Thanks Hewy
