I'm kind of new to this site and have been overwhelmed by all the information.I am looking for gun belt patterns,something beside the Tandy stuff.Any suggestions? Thanks,Dale

I also am in need of more leather for holsters.I have seen a number of times that people on these forums have made purchases from Weaver's but all I can find on their website is wholesale,not retail.Am I missing something? if(typeof(dstb)!= "undefined"){ dstb();}

I've been making a few holsters and it's been going good but someone pointed out that I need to do something so that the rivets and snaps used in construction don't come in contact with the gun.Is there some way that you holster folks address this problem?

I'm fairly new to all this.So I made some nice 1/2" wide wraparound bracelets with spots & pyramids.I made them from 2-3 oz .veg tanned leather.I stained them with oil stain & satin sheen.When I flex them to wrap around the wrist the leather cracks on the surface.Am I using the wrong kind of leather or is it possibly of poor quality?If so,what would be a better choice?

All I know until I can look at it is that it is a "New Home" sewing machine.

I'm fairly new to leatherwork and I have an opportunity to inherit my grandmother's old treadle sewing machine.It is in immaculate condition with lots of spare needles.My question is could this be used for any type of leatherwork?What is the maximum thickness of leather that could be sown and what types o f projects would I be limited to?

Looking more for something with separate attached sides or gusset.

I would like to make a small stiff case with a flap to hang on my belt to hold .22 caliber bullets.I have Al Stohlman's "Making Leather Cases" but not sure if this is what I'm looking for.Are the wood forms the best way to go?

I visited Weaver's website and it appeared to be wholesale only.Do they do any retail business? Thanksif(typeof(dstb)!= "undefined"){ dstb();}

Hello, Just getting started in leatherwork for the past few months and would like to ask you folks which suppliers you prefer.I am fortunate enough to live not too far from a Tandy store but not sure if their prices are always competitive or if there are other options available. Thanks
