Finished A Rifle Sling For A Friend
Rohn replied to Colt W Knight's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
As far as the fleece picking up stuff as he walks through the woods, I don't think that will be a problem. The sling will be over the hunters shoulder not out in the open beating the brush. The only thing it will be touching is the hunter's clothes as he is walking. IMHO. -
Thanks everyone for the wonderful comments. They are an encouragement to get on and make more. I love carving leather.

Belt For My Grandpa
Rohn replied to mpluc1's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
I agree it is top notch indeed. Nice job on the BW and the letters look great too. -
Thank you all for the nice comments. Here is how I did this holster. After tooling was finished and the leather dried, I dyed it with Fiebings Saddle Tan and let it dry. Then I whip stitched it every other hole, wet the leather and molded it to the gun. I let it dry. Then I cut out the lace and gave it a good coat of Tan-kote and let that dry. I then applied the antique dye and once this is dry I gave it another coat of Tan-kote. Then I laced it with triple loop stitch. I takes me approximately 45 minutes to lace a holster this size. I do not use any glue. Once the final lacing is done I give it a final coat of Tan-kote and it is done. Hope this answers any questions but if not keep asking. As for me not using any stitching with thread - that is about to change as I bought a sewing machine and will be doing some of my things with that as time goes on. I just don't enjoy hand stitching and people like my laced holster anyway. This holster design is my own and at this point the holster is not yet sold, but I don't think it will be around long.

I just finished this holster today. I used Fiebings Saddle Tan oil dye and Sheridan Brown antique dye. I am happy with the way it turned out. Let me know what you think.

That is a real beauty. Letters look really good. There is nothing I can see about this sling not to like. -

Para-Cord Stitched Knife Sheath

I'm not a big fan of neck knife sheaths, but it looks like you did a fine job. Did you glue under the stitches? -

Thanks Chief. My customer originally wanted White lace but changed his mind and went with black. I'm glad he did. -

Thanks for the nice comment. I used Fiebings dye for both, oil dye for black regular for the red. -
Here is a holster I did for a customer. I think it turned out pretty good and so did he. He paid for it and I shipped it. Let me know what you think.

Looks good from here. That is really cool - harvesting a gator and having stuff made from it. Looks like you are doing a great job. -
