Shipping Finished Leather Goods
IngleGunLeather replied to IngleGunLeather's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
Ahh ha. And with Christmas right around the corner I'm sure I could stock up at a low price. Thanks Chief. -
Hi Cogs. I think it's very creative and I like it. I don't know much about Native American dos and dont's, but I believe anyone would appreciate the creative process. Nice work indeed.

Shipping Finished Leather Goods
IngleGunLeather replied to IngleGunLeather's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
Yeah, I didn't see it in writing anywhere, but I had a feeling plastic wouldn't be a good idea. Where do you get cheesecloth at? -
Just wondering what type of material to use for protecting finished leather goods for shipping. Bubble wrap? Foam peanuts? Newspaper? I don't really know what to use to protect holsters and belts from getting marks during shipment. Any help would be appreciated.

Gum Tragacanth Question
IngleGunLeather replied to drof99's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
You could also try the edge paint. If I remember correctly that stuff will stick after gum had been applied. Several coats may be needed though. -

True story. -
Second Holster (Mexican Loop)
IngleGunLeather replied to Samalan's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
+1. Looks very good. I need to get some of that Wyo Slick. Do you like it better than Gum Trag or anything else you may have used? -

Shrinking Thumb Breaks?
IngleGunLeather replied to George B's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
The exact same thing happened when I built a shoulder rig for an XD9. Thumb strap was nice and snug around the blue gun, but when the real gun was put in the holster the snaps wouldn't line up and snap. I think the blue guns are a tad bit smaller than the real thing. I wound up taking the same corrective action as well and it eventually stretched the strap. -
Holster Inlay - 1St Attempt

Excellent work Matt! Very clean. -
Holster/ Belt Combo.
IngleGunLeather replied to JohnBloch's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
Be sure to check the rule books for whichever association you look into. I just joined the Cowboy Fast Draw Association and their rules are quite different from World Fast Draw. Not sure about SASS. Wasn't a local club, so I didn't even check out their rules and regs. You're off to a good start, keep going. -

Not bad at all, especially if you are just getting into leather working. -
Single Loop 'slinger Cross Draw
IngleGunLeather replied to DHopper's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
I'm no stamping expert, but I think this one looks better than the last. A couple recommendations though:1. Don't stamp on your stitch line, inset it some. 2. I think the flap should mimic the shape of the pocket. Your pocket has nice curves, but the flap is rectangular.
