Hi, guys & gals!
What a wonderful resource you have created with this community! So glad that I ran across it.
A number of years ago I worked my way through one of Tandy's starter sets/kits that contained half a dozen or so projects. It was a lot of fun. Not sure why I didn't continue doing leatherwork. Perhaps, it was because I found everything Tandy sold to be quite expensive, or I got busy doing something else. It's hard to say. In any case, I'm gearing up to give it another try. Pretty much starting from scratch. Sure, I would like to get good enough to sell a few items, but being able to make my own belts, wallets, etc. will also be quite rewarding. Plus, I figure doing this might help me to stay off of Facebook! ;-) I wish my new starter set would arrive...
Now for the questions:
Not that I plan on going into the holster making business, but do you who make them for sale (large or small scale), carry any kind of liability insurance? What if some dunderhead shoots himself or someone else and blames it on the holster?
How many of you belong to Tandy's Wholesale Club? If you do, at what level (Gold or Elite)?
I've read here not to buy one of Tandy's large tool sets, just to buy what you need as you need it. Any particular places besides Tandy and maybe eBay where you like to by stamping tools and such from?
After all the reading here and elsewhere I have been doing the last few days, I guess I don't have as many questions as I thought, so I guess that's it for now... Thanks!
Joe
