  1. Yes, the mouth does stay open, if fact I wore this holster around the house one day without a weapon in it just to see if the mouth would stay open. After a few hours I put my gun back in the holster with out any problems. I did not really do anything special with it to make the mouth stay open like that.. I just wetmolded it and let it dry and then sealed it with fiebing's leather balm with atom wax.... When I made the holster i was not really all that concerned whether or not the mouth of the holster stayed open or not. I just wanted to make sure I could get it out quickly and easily.
  2. Hey Ken, I hand stitch all of my holsters, I just kind of prefer it that way. It does mean that it takes me longer to sew a holster though. John.
  3. Hey, Thanks for the comments. Here is another one I made, I think it looks better than the first two I made.
  4. They may not be pretty, they might be big, but they conceal very well and are very comfortable to wear. One is for a Para .45, thats what I carry now. The other is for a Beretta 92FS.
  5. This is for a Ruger Vaquero .45 left handed. It is pigskin lined. The pic is photographed backwards so it looks like it is for a right handed shooter. I took this pic with my computer and I will be honest.... I don't know how to fix the pics.
  6. This is some of my latest holsters I have been working on. I tried to do a duel 9mm mag pouch, it came out ok, I found some things I need to do different next time though. Tell me what ya'll think. Thanks.
  7. Hey everyone, I am making a small of the back holster and was kicking around the idea of putting in a tension screw. I don't have the foggiest idea of how to do this. Can someone please fill me in on how that is done? Thanks.
  8. Hi everyone, I made a tomohawk sheath for a friend of mine, he did not want any shine to it, so I just put neatsfoot oil on it at this point. I left off the acrylic resolene. Tell me what you think please. Always room to improve and I have gotten better because of your critiques. Thanks.
  9. 1. I use fiebling's leather dye I think its alcohol based. (mahogany) 2. 6 to 7 ounce single shoulders 3. No, I have not been buffing until no dye rubs off, I rub in dye twice to get good coverage. 4. I use fiebings acylic resolene. Thanks for your help, I will be happy to answer any other questions in order to fix this problem. I apologize in advance if I am doing something or not doing something to cause my own problem. I am absolutely still learning so much. John.
  10. Hi Everyone, Here I am once again seeking your council. A problem has just come up with the dye on one of my holsters rubbing off. I dont think it is affecting the look of the holster but I dont want dye staining my customers and friends clothing. Please tell me what I am doing wrong in the dye process or what I can do to fix this very troublesome problem. Thank you very much. John.
  11. I was thinking of using guns my friends and family let me borrow, so it is extremely important that the weapons I use are returned in the exact condition as I got them.
  12. Thanks Mike, It is gratifying to see improvement with each project I do.
