Thanks, I could not find a free pattern on the site so I took several of the members ideas and put them together. 1) Started with a blank sheet of paper and traced my belt out. 2) Then placed my blue gun down with both the trigger housing and the ejection hole on the belt and traced it. 3) then drew a stitch line that was half the width of the gun and half the thickness of the leather plus 1/8 inch from the tracing. 4) then placed the belt holes over the tracing of the belt. 5) finally traced out the rest of the pattern so that I liked the looks of it. This is a great site and thanks to all those that helped without knowing it.

Thanks I will look into both of those.

After much reading of this forum I have tried my first holster. Front: Back: Tell me what you think. Also what is a good method to smooth the rough side of the leather? Thanks.

This is a sporran I did for a friend.

Not really, it runs about $100 a month. Not anywhere near what it cost to feed a child. I know i have tried:lol:

Hi my name is Rob and I just wanted to say that this is an amazing site. I have only just started leather working an hope to pick all of your brains on some of the marvelous thins I have seen. Among my hobbies are my two lads Seamus and Boru They love to go with me to both parades and renaissance festivals. As you can see going kilted for me is the only way to be seen when you have these lads with you and why I have become interested in leather work. My current and planned projects include Sgain Dubh's, Sporran's, and a vest.

Hi my name is Rob and I am new to this forum. Just wanted to start by showing my first good looking (only third one) project. let me know what you think.
