  1. Tom... That´s really a nice collar, smart to have a loose D- ring ... You do great work, keep it up..
  2. Thanx for the tip rickybobby .. I have a 2 " marble slab which I use for all my tooling and carving .. I have found that when I use Ghormleys stamps, I do it on my concrete floor with a small iron plate under , it works fine .. So I will not cut the stamps...
  3. Glad that I can help John.. It works sooo nice, took me 30 min to make and cost me $14

  6. Howdy pards.. I´ve used my havy leadhammer to make good impressions with my makerstamps (new one to the right), had to hit it so hard that things fall down from the walls :-\ But now I´ve made a press on the most simple way, I bought a jack and welded it together on my work, saved hundreds of $$$$$ ;D And my friend Dick (rebsr52339) bought the Frank James Holster Rosette Stamps for me from Mr Ghormley so I could pay him by paypal. On those beautis I still have to use the leadhammer, dont know if I dare to cut the handles and use them in the press ???

  10. Tom, do u thing I´m made of money, I cut them :-) I used a 9 ounce leather and lined it with 5 ounce suede. The color is Eco-Flo Gel Antique Dk. Brown with a coat of Super Shene. It took me about 8 hours to make 5 of them is sewing :-( but i dont want to use a machine..... yet. If I want to live at the stuff I make then I think I needs a machine, atleast for the long stitching.. Tanx for all the nice feedback pards:You_Rock_Emoticon:

  19. Hello out there.. Here I´ve made a rig for a friend. The modell is the rig Russel Crowe use in 3:10 to Yuma. Its a verry popular holster for the moment and fun to make to.
