I started late 50 s with an interest in holsters and being left handed could not find or afford what I wanted. I have not made anything sellable but several quite useful items, some in hard to find styles. Most friends who see them can’t believe I am capable. I often make a nice (for me) item then try to tool it and get a lower quality result. I should probably just stick to plain leather.

Looks nice. I am too short to carry that.

So sorry. People with such strength are so rare.

Found it. Go to menu at upper right, go to account, ignored users, add user, select options. Choose ignore.

For some reason this does not work n an iPad. I think I did it before by hunting up a real computer. If anybody knows how to ignore somebody with iPad please let me know. Thanks.

Only animal ever put me in the ER. Great to be laying on your back in a gravel road, 14 hand colt on top of you, car coming 50 mph. could be one thing, reground to be another.

Thanks.

That lying Siri - can’t ever trust her.

I hate to copy and paste but I searched for Winterholm Hoof Knife and got like 100 pictures of that tool. Whatever it is its wore out. The internet is rarely correct.

Hoof knife.

I was in a tactical-type gun shop and they were selling gun belts with a steel liner sewn in. Supposed to not sag under weight. Quite pricy. Has anyone made these? What is used for liner? I guess with or without gun it would trigger metal detectors.

I run 138 thread on top, 92 on bottom, sometimes 138 maybe in bottom.

Book should show stitch adjustment. Hold down button in bed ( left one maybe) and turn handwheel forward and back to set stitch length. Numbers on handwheel show setting. Mine lacks the dial.

If you are using machine portable it might be quieter bolted down.

Sorry I meant to say neatsfoot oil. I would not do linseed myself. Getting my gunstock finishes crossed with my leather finishes.

A coat of linseed and 1/2 a day in the sun will darken that just enough.

Nice looking pig. I helped some guys cook 304 butts Saturday. Then I cleaned out the pits and pressure washed grills Thursday. Ready to nap.

Try thread exchange.

I bought a pallet of stuff at a sharpening service many years ago. Before I quit bidding they threw a box of these circular knives on. I have maybe 30 . 6 3/4 inch diameter, very sharp, beveled one side. Wonder if this would make a head knife if cut in 2. Not sure how to mount handle. Maybe leav a stem at the bottom.

I am building a pole building for leather work and some other pastimes. Was thinking of using a tall metal cabinet for veg tanned. Wonder if it will mold (unseated)?

This is not leather for sure, but fits and carries great.

Thanks guys.

This is listed on Offer Up for $200, bout an hour from me. Supposed to function. 5 others of different models. Wonder what model and what capacity? Thanks.
