I searched and searched on this forum, and I think I found ONE person who was doing this. This was the BEST part! As you can see in other pics, I added a layer of black leather (pre-dyed) with leather glue and then when that had set up for about 5min, I started molding my holster around the gun (which was saran wrapped and rods added for sight clearance) and when I put it in the vacuum mold, every little detail of the gun started showing up. It was very exciting to watch, lol

If this is your first project, stick with it.  That's pretty cool!  I use a vacuum seal as well.  With the basketweave, exotics or rough-out, it works particularly well.  If you are doing finished sides, the bags will put wrinkles in the leather you have to push out.  Also, you don't need 48 hrs under pressure.  A few minutes works well.  Nice finished project.  There's a few little design nit-picks, which you will correct in the future... not worth commenting here.
