    yaklady, thank you.... yes after it was done, i was not happy. i do have another one and i have ordered Wickett & Craig chestnut color leather. small pcs of work & dark color one can get away with flub ups. But large pcs are trouble.

    Guitar Cover

    Luke Hatley replied to TracyMoss's topic in Art

    tracy it turned out better than good. that is very classic. there will be some sound difference in the acoutics of the before and after the covering of an acoustic guitar. But covering the body of an electric guitar there is no change of the sound. I have always liked the looks of Waylon Jennings guitar.....

    this has happened to me before. completly re -thread the machine, re wind a bobbin and start all over. from the photo it looks to me like, top tension needs to be tighter or bobbin tension need to be losen up so the top thread can pull the bottom thread up into the leathers.... it can be confusion some times.

    Grumpy just a thought .... are you tapering the end of thread that you are putting thru the eye of the needle? maby put a larger stiching hole in the item you are sewing.
  15. Luke Hatley
    regis... i would line it also.... do like abn said or go thru the scrap box and look for some 2-3 oz. calif. that would stiffen it up. then you can mold the gun to the holster...

    Al Stohlmans book "HOW TO MAKE HOLSTERS" would be the perfect item for you. it has patterns, how to make your own patterns, tools to use and how to hand sew..

    Thank you Regis.. strange tidbit of information.... a short time after receiving this hide to start working on there was an item in the newspaper about africans contacting strange diseases while working on animal hides there... The Doctor assured me that these hides were tanned in the approiate way!
