First Ever Tooling And Carving Project
benlilly1 replied to tkirwan's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Nice design of the sheath...too bad the resist wasn't right, it would have looked cool for the skull to stand out. Don't know how you wet the leather but make sure it's not too wet when you start to stamp. Other than that you'll discover all the tips and tricks to perfect your projects. The more you practice your stamping the better you'll be. -
Looks great!!

My First Hip Flasks
benlilly1 replied to Nerull's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Good job for a first and congrats on the 2 orders! -
KurseD, 3 coats of poly. It could have taken more. It really soaked it in. I didn't have my spray unit set up so I brushed it.

That's classy looking...and your own design? Very nice!

Thanks everyone!! DoubleU that is exactly how I work...all tools spread out on both sides of me. Hopefully this will keep me more organized. I might put the stamps I use most right in the middle for easy access. I have a special spot for this holder...hence the size 6x6x3' for a future topic. I got this cedar on Craigslist for $5 so the cost and my labor makes it cheap and custom.

That will be a cool design on a seat! Keep us posted.

First 2 rows are 1" apart for my smaller handled tools. 3rd row 2" apart and they are 7/16 holes. 1" holes in the back for holding my other hand tools. I couldn't keep my work space picked up so this was really needed. Thanks for the comments!

Decided I was tired of sticking my stamps in a 1" piece of styrofoam. So this weekend I made a tool holder out of a 6x6 piece of cedar 3 ft. long with 97 holes. I have empty holes but hoping to fill those up soon.

I love buying my leather already drum dyed black...if I need to touch it up, it's a breeze.

KurseD, I wet mold it using office clips to hold it until it's dry. I also use cut pieces of computer mouse pads to cushion where the clips sit or there will be marks left from the clips.

WOW, What a find!!!
-
Yes too bad, Shtoink, I guess I didn't do too good on figuring out that center section...looks like part of a motorcycle motor. I initially surfed to find more images but couldn't so I guessed. The customer is happy with it though so I guess that's what counts.

I was just thinking about that same idea the other day but, I don't have a sand blaster:( Great job on that!!
