Great finish on edges and such....where are the skulls and flames !!!!?????? -
Nice work, kinda raw and down to earth, like that....leather is a simple product and sometimes it makes sense to create simple things from it.... Looks like your bags will last for ever....U need to slow down on that maple leave stamped all over your stuff....hahaha... Great work, show us some more !!! Jimboob

Roll Top Bag
Jimbob replied to Hi Im Joe's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Love the color, love the oil tan ? leather and love the style.... interresting design and welll executed.... some detail I have seen, cheap rivets make a cheap bag....use higher quality rivets or all sewn....your stitches look, and I couldbe dead wrong, to big for the thread u used....to big of a needle?....also wonder if you had to much top tension....I would have used tan or earth color for thread, where the bag is rolled and connected there needs to be re-enforcement so it wont tear on the seams. All in all a wonderful bag and very nicely made....again, I love thestyleand color!!! Well done!!!! jimboob -
Go to Diamond D custom leather.....they have exelllent pictures of this holster on a person!!! You can really tell how it goes together and what it will look like being worn!!! Hope that helps....mine is done sold and gone... Jimboob...

Well, not much to it....I usually start with 1 inch hardware so the strap starts as a one inch it gradually turns after about mid-chest into 2 inch sometimes if requested into 2.5 inch often the strap does not have a curve as on this one! But on my shoulderholsters near the ankerpoint I have a light curve into it for better fit near shoulder blades....just make a straight template then draw a slight curve about 3/4 up the strap about 1 inch of to the side....easy....mirrow turn for other side. hope that helps a bit.... glad you like my work....thanks James
