**************************************** Thank you Timbo... Hats? a friend of mine is (Buckaroohatters.com) ever now and then i will get hat bodys from him and fix them up for buckskinners or civil war reenactors

Maeshin, get yourself a good cutting surface, check out the Offla cutting mat sold at the fabric shops. while you are there take a look at the offla cutters. Get a good straight edge. Thin or light weght leather is not easy to cut with a Pull thru cutter. you will like the roller cutter.

My favorite is Masters..but I have been using the Tanners Bond Contact, cement from Tandys and i like it. Fast set..

COOL.........put a name on it and use as a wall hanging... it is always good to have a sample of your work,that folks can see.

AS ALWAYS YOUR TOOLING IS ASWUM.....question. did you use a beveler on that or was the background tool used as a beveler ?

Thank you.. it amazes me some times what i have accumlated over these good 30+ years........and still finding items i think i need. that mallet started out at a 2-3/4 x 4" it has been trimed down 2 times. Ed if i were you i would forgo the rawhide mallet, and find one of the older rawhide mauls. they are heavy and mine works better than the mallet.

and ..... you will be able to see your see your stiches. i thought the same thing.
-
Thanks Mike.... the stiching that is over the instep enables the mock to fit the shape of your foot. after a period of wear they will fit like any other Mock.

Luke Hatley replied to Regis's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
REGIS when i do my holsters , the front of the rear site will rest on the top of the holster, with mabey just a tad of clearance. after all it is an adjustable site ,dont want it being bumped too much. -

pistol caddy
Luke Hatley replied to Luke Hatley's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
thank you (who's stap is it)??? the stamp is a Craftool from the 60's to me it is a very plain one , but i like the bar design, you just cain't those old tools ! -
Second try... I took an order for two pistol carriers, they turned out so well I made me one. The Basket weave design turned out great ,very even, "I think". The Lettering came from F. O. Bairds Book. Color is Tan fiebiengs dye and antiqued with Angelus Maghogany , Hope i can find some more. * second one is the actual color... light problems*
