Josh thats beautiful great detail thanks for showing

Nice work is the toe plug stitched in it's hard to tell from the photo thanks for showing

Wow thats a beautiful rig nice stitching work also thanks for showing .

Thanks it was fun to make i love making tools .

yes thanks for asking it dose have an edge but it can be used on any size belt if you look at the chest holster i posted the slide is narrower than the jig where you can see through the plate it's easy to line up or you can use a filler let's put it this way if you have this one would not even think of laying it out by hand . Thanks for the question and comments.

Hope this comes out right had a request to see my home made bullet loop jig the plate shown is for 44mag the tool the shaft is 0-1 tool steel the rest brass and walnut works great very fast layout.

Sure i'll share but i'm new at posting pictures i'm working all day today i'll try to get it done tonight .

Thank you for the nice comments the ammo loops are done with a tool and fixture i made just for doing bullet loops this one is for 44mag it makes layout very fast i'm very lazy about doing repetitive work so lets say a layout for a gun belt with 30 loops of - 44mag or any other cal would take about two minutes this sets layout dimples for machine or hand sewing the math is always right the diagonal thread under the loop is set in a stitch groove thats done dot to dot very fast around two min it's so fast it's fun to do best part they are always right. Thank you all for the comments.

I would take it apart from the buckle end the good part is you can pick the stitching out only to where your going to fold the belt make a new elonggated hole for the buckle then re stitch only the back of the foldthen new screws or whatever to hold the buckle on hope this helps.

really nice like the idea nice job

thats very cool that should bring in som doe

the picture is horrible and i have no idea hoe to send but here goes nothing just made this chest rig for a 44mag ruger holster is 2 - 7to8 oz veg tan color pro oil saddle tan fin 50/50 res and water payment typ lots of deer and ham plus home made wine and some electric work he is very happy with it.

show that knife and sheath to your boss he might go for the gun instead!

well vikefan you done a nice job on that one got to say thats nice

I find it interesting you assume i'm taking money from somebody else and making post on thire dime ! while playing with leather WOW thats funny LOL.

Sorry Branson didn't mean to mislead by leaving out tooling leather but if these guys say harnees is good for wet molding i would listen to them they have great experience it was just my opinion. anyway best of luck with your holsters .

Tried wet molding a holster out of harness recently must say not what i was looking for but then i dont have anywhere near the experience you gentleman have i did get a nice holster out of it just not what i was looking for. With my limited experience i'll stay with tooling leather for wet molding just works best for me .

Yes sir tooling thank you.

Not so good for wet molding best use veg tan for that.

Wow thanks for tha tcommercial The best in the world they are !
