Mexican loop holster... And belt
Eddie Q replied to Stetson912's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Ha, very AWESOME !!!! I have two nephews that are huge fans of guns n holsters. One of my brothers is SO anti gun, but my nephew(he's 4) was just in awe when he saw me with my gun holstered on my side. My other nephew(5), I made a lil rifle sling his daddy is a huge hunter and a forest fire fighter so no biggie with him. I'm making a couple holsters for Christmas for them. Thanks for this post, it's just too cool !!!- 23 replies

Black dye
Eddie Q replied to TLP's topic in Dyes, Antiques, Stains, Glues, Waxes, Finishes and Conditioners.
Just make sure to soak in acetone or brake cleaner for a bit to remove any oil residue from it, have fun !! I also love experimenting with this sort of thing -
Black dye
Eddie Q replied to TLP's topic in Dyes, Antiques, Stains, Glues, Waxes, Finishes and Conditioners.
Well, for what it's worth, here's my experience ....I've used both Fiebing's pro oil dye and USMC black on different types of leather and I prefer the USMC black, amidst other fine folks recommendations. I do reduce it with alcohol and oil after some buffing. I have a wallet I've carrying for the last four years with no rub off at all ! I also believe the quality of leather has a lot to do with dye absorption and something not many bring up is black resolene diluted 50/50 with water, I'm true believer in it. There's also a post somewhere in this site about "vinagroon"(making and neutralizing) I've also used it successfully, but it has more of a metallic greyish black finish which I like a lot too !! Good luck !!! -
What an amazing piece of art, you sure deserve a few drinks !!

Your work is very nice Yin, hope you have better luck next time. I've always been invited to craft fairs by friends and I have been bashful about it(I have a full time job also which prevents me to make much stuff). I finally got convinced and on Dec 1 I'm going to participate at a high school art fest/ fund raiser. I ordered a paypal card swiper and hope it helps some. Now I have to get off my butt and make some card wallets misc. items :). -
