Wishful

Thanks for the info, Glynn

That looks nice Dave, and probably the way I will go but did you line the holster front since it has the inlay? Also, did you sew the inlay by hand or machine? Thanks.

I was considering making a holster (The Tandy minimal) but want it to match a knife/magazine holder that I made with cow hide (hair on) on the front. Do you think the cowhide only would be OK for the front of the holster but still use the kit back (about 7-8oz)? If so, do you think I should use a backer or stiffener (what do suggest?) As an alternative I suppose I could do this with cowhide as an inlay only and put a 1-2oz liner. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Yes thank you, that was what I was trying to ask. ; )

Nice job - just wondering if it is lined. I am going to make a holster and want to use an inlay (or concho like you) and thought maybe it should be lined. If so, what type of fabric /liner did you use? Thanks.

I am looking to do my first inly too and wonder if you have a "bezel" around the skin or if you actually have a cut out in the holster portion. More pix may answer.... Thanks.

I like it - those are rivets in the belt?

Great looking piece! I am wondering what you use for your lines within each board. Are you using a swivel to cut the interior lines or a stylus? I have tried both ways, I like the thinness of a knife but like the control I have over the stylus. Maybe I just need more knife practice. ..
