you might be able to find someone with a wood or metal lathe that could cut to length. check with a local wood crafters store or a local vo tech school if you have one. if cut on a lathe you will get nice smooth straight ends

a have found a adler 205 for sale locally. it is a german made machine and looks nice in photos. question, is it any better than the 441 copies, it is about the same price as a new clone but i will probably have to put a dc motor on the adler i mainly make holsters and belts . old story new machine customer service warranty or older machine no warranty. thanks

Kooky Question On Leather Pistol Grips
Big G replied to Fredo's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
congrats on the 1911/ my favotite i have been thinking about the same thing.. you could glue and sew 2 layers like a belt with a filler in between to round out the outside. 1911 grips are rounded not flat. inside filler would reinforce the mounting screws. filler could be kydex . by the way springfield leather will give you a piece of kydex to play with -

Gun Belt - First Attempts
Big G replied to particle's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
wonder if you can use prewound bobbins in a tippmann boss? mine had one in the box when i bought it but i havent tried one yet. they usually hold more thread than you can wind on by hand -
Gun Belt - Ordered Blanks
Big G replied to particle's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
you can get kydex from almost any plastic , plexiglass,lexan,abs , kydex at plastic supply houses . most will cut for you or you can score with a utility knife and snap it off. cope plastics is one supplier i know in okla city. added benefit is you can heat and mold for sheaths and holsters etc. -
if you live in a large city you should be able to buy auto or interior upholstery leather at a wholesaler. if you live in a small town check with a local auto upholstery shop, they should be able to order for you. use a high density foam. nothing worse than having your backside bottom out . if you have spare time build me one too

A Couple New Holsters
Big G replied to particle's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
great work as usual. i carry a 637 S&W without the shield the hammer will work on you after a while. -
look at the exploded view in the parts section on tippmanns web site. very simple design , very little to go wrong. 2 air valves and a quick exhaust valve to release. has a air bladder that inflates instead of a mechanical linkage and air cylinder
