    Classic Lawman

    tEN wOLVES added images to a gallery album in Our Leatherwork Galleries

    This is a gun rig I made, it was dyed in dark roast coffee and finished in a hand rubbed oil, the belt is the money belt style, which is the most comfortable to wear, bullet loops are sewn on, and all the sewing was done by hand.

    AC, your pancake holster looks good, Outrider helped me out with the ones I made too, it's a good design, and can be made for several different style guns. here's a couple I made.

    Howdy Westbound On stitch lines I usually use 3/16" to 1/4" away from the edge, I also make sure the back side is just a little proud of the finish side on the seam line when cementing, after I cement the seam line, I go to my belt sander and using a clean 220 grit paper, I bring the seam line to 90 degrees, this is where having the back side a little proud of the front comes into play, you won't end up sanding into your seam line, on the front but will straighten it out so you can put an accurate stitch groove on the back, it makes this process a lot easier when everything is at 90 degrees. Good luck, and enjoy the craft tEN wOLVES

    Law Dog Style holster 2009 015.JPG
    Thanks WESTBOUND, I started in leather a little over four years ago, and my main purpose was to learn how to make my own holsters and gun leather, it's a lot of fun, and the best part you can make it the way you want, fit and finish is all up to you. Good luck with your holster making, just go slow and enjoy the process, and make sure you save your first holster, so you can have it to look back on to see your progress. Regards tEN wOLVES

    Law Dog Style holster 2009 015.JPG

    From the album: Holster for Pocket Pistol

    Howdy All This Holster is a variation of a popular holster used in the later part of the eighteen hundreds, it has a little more drop from the belt, which make drawing and re holstering much easier, I dyed this rig, in my home made walnut dye for three days, then wet formed the holster to my gun, it has three coats of Neatsfoot oil, and three coats of Skidmores Leather Cream, as a conditioner and protector, before the leather dyes thoroughly, I rub in a generous amount of Lexoil contitioner, but not too much at the throat of the holster where I want to be stiffer and keep its shape. This is my first day in the Leather Worker Net. so I hope I'm doing this right. Regards tEN wOLVES

    This is a new pattern I just made for a holster for Pocket Pistols, which are very small, it's the Mexican two lop design, and a high ride, the holster is worn on a money belt which was very popular in the period, it has simple border tooling and is dyed in my natural home made dye.
