You kin keep the runts on Leech (assuming you're in line with all the other liberal rules n laws n regs n statutes n ordinances They have a no-kill slot (20-26, or was it 22-26) and you can keep ONE over 26, or in other words, keep 4 fish under 2 lbs-ish. Which is fine for lunch on the lake, but for dinner, I eat 6 of those just waiting for the taters to get done! Off to the gym... before I change my mind

IS there a 'bitch, whine, complain' section? You know, like the 'show off' section, or the supplier section. Or, is that BWC normally JUST ME ... NOT FOR THE FIRST TIME, I got a message from a fella - wants a belt that tapers (and shows a pic attached of a ranger belt). And gimme an estimate for cow, shark, stingray, elephant, and sumthin else... cuz "I don't want to spend a fortune" I don't even have a source for some of that. ANybody know where to get stingray 50" long for under $1k?

EVERYBODY misses that. You can still FISH it, just can't KEEP any of 'em.. catch 'n release only. Now, with Redheads, I git that, but walleyes I sometimes want to bring home

I wonder if aguycould raise the feed dog just a tad and stop that? I don't race around a holster - much slower than I go down the side of a belt - so I'm sure that helps. The dog should be at or just above the plate when the needle enters. If it's still below the plate, that could result in stitching angling toward the back edge. (note, in MN "aguycould" is one word).

I didn't get a pic of the back of this one - in the box and gone. But this pic is the same P365, done the same way with the same pattern.

Oh, yeah - gotcha. I have everything all done.. including edging .. before I sew the edges. Once it's edged, THEN I mark the sewing line "a strong 1/8" in from the edges, including the edge of the slot (with the disclaimer that on some models I go a little wider from the slot ONLY, just found it fits the look of some models better). You do have to watch when sewing with a machine that you don't get SUCKED DOWN IN the slot in the plate, which can result in that angled stitch. I dn't get a lot of that, but I've had it happen so I know what you mean. I USUALLY (again, I almost never say 'never') sew with the left toe and with the holster to the outside, so only that 1/8+" is over the slot. This is due to the holster being a #curvedpanel - with a 50/50 you could easily put it to the inside, and then your issue is eliminated. Or, you could sew and then trim

Not sure i'm followin' yer question. I cut the parts, glue the shark to the stiffener (4/5 oz tooling), then glue and sew those to the front panel, with some arch in it. Then glue, trim, punch slot, and sew the front section. I sew it after it's already trimmed to match. Then glue, trim, punch slot, and sew the "back end". I sew it after it's already trimmed to match. When I'm done sewing, dye the edge and burnish (first pass) before wet forming the holster. I hit the edges again when it's nearly dry, though depending on the work load it sometimes gets away from me and i end up re-wetting the edges to burnish later. Doesn't change the result one way or other, but hitting it while its "right" moisture content first time saves time in the end. Maybe something in there answered your question ...

Oh, cool .. more stuff. We all love stuff!

Blue shark. It's black, but the SPECIES is blue shark. Know ... never mind .

Nope. Was checkin' see if'n YOU need some Haven't actually used any ... they aint fer eatin', they jus fer lookin' through.

Okay, I'll bite. WHY not continue the lace all the way around? That would have been my preference, but also seems like it would be less work than stopping the lace and ending on both ends, then stitching that little bit.

This looks GREAT! Always like your use of color, and here you've grabbed the change in focus from the subject and the (nicely but nor overly done) "background". The hair effects are stunning (as we've come to expect from you) and the eyes are 'spot on'. I'm not big on projects that just look good sitting, and don't "do" something utilitarian. But this is ANOTHER great work - color me impressed.

I don't do anything to it. No acetate, no alcohol, no acid, .... Have you purchased leather with some type of coating or finish on it?

I don't know WHERE some of these ideas come from. Dish soap? Never used it. I suppose it may prevent mildew and fungus from forming in the water. Personally, I just change the water. 110° ? I use a bowl of water at room temp (around 68°). Fill it with distilled water (because not all tap water is equal), set it on the desk, use it until it's either gone or dirty (usually from little "bits" due to edging or sanding), then dump it and replace it. Every few days I WASH THE BOWL - using dish soap - so maybe that's where that idea comes from?@! Kaint help with the swivel and where to get one. Never used one, and never will, so I just don't have that info. I do know others use them, so they're available.

The best tool for the job is the one you will USE. IF you're comfortable with it, that's the one. Wait for it... some a@@ will be here in a minute to sell you a new tool to do that with and sign you up for a paid class on how to use it

Or just buy the swivel and lay it out yourself. Nothing different about that holster other than they added a different style belt loop to it.

solar leather was out of stock in 2016. Still? Wait.. the 800 and 806 use the same blade?

DOE NO NUTHING bout a sailrite, but I had that Consew .. should STILL have it actually. Good little machine, easy to use, reliable. Since i don't have it any more, if I were to get something in that range again, I'd likely do the Cowboy 227, which is 'basically' the cylinder model of that same thing.

Loaded basically to show the free software, download it in seconds, make the video in a couple of minutes. I'm a bit slow on the draw here, you know -- NOT left handed and all that ... pocket holster push off.mp4

Is that a typo? Or can I really order a NEW one for $350 more?

My judgment, you're going to be better off with a slightly lighter machine.. maybe the cowboy 227. Should sew your garment leathers reliably. Hand sew those 3/8" thick sheaths 'n' holsters... far less stitching on those.

I admit it. Put some seriously purdy gurls on yer show, an' I'll member it a long time. I'll 'member it daily. Course, Mom 'm' Dad was fans o' Roy 'n' Buck, and who don't like Glen C?@! Ah.. these kids got no idea what i"m talkin bout... WAYNE, ya need these snap covers?@! Kin ya hear me inna back?

weird.. he got yellow hilite on the qty 12, but nothing on the 100 (though it comes up if you try to add to cart). Seems like it should work though. But I STILL want to know where the snap goes before lining the rig.. cuz I want the plastic thingie recessed into the liner. But Idunno what I do with 100 of em. Wayne, you need any o these?

http://www.bluegunstore.com/snapprotectors.aspx Hate to advertise this guy if he can't clarify his pricing. Not sure how they are 29¢ each or 12 for $11.88 ?@!

Yup, that's what i find, too. I can be in there an hour and only see 2 or 3 people come in. Got the manager and two girls working, usually. One early 30's, kinda cute. Other one can't be more 'n' 21-22, kinda cute. Wait, maybe we aint talking about the same thing any more ... Anyway, it's about hour and a half each way from here, so I only go when I need to pick out something, which isn't very often.
