  1. Nice job Chuck like always, I'm sure they will love them. The sewing looks great, and how you did those words pulls it together.
  2. Thanks, Matt I did a belt one time It was a ton of work lots of stitching, and a lot of time washed it after the roon with baking soda way too much soda the belt looked like it was 500 years old it was unusable LOL now. not sure what ph levels I had but thank you for the information if I ever use roon again I'll be sure to check the ph levels for sure I did another job with roon and it didn't crack thank God but I will say I used a lot of water washing it after the roon that was about 4 years ago and it's still fine shit luck on that one if that one had cracked I'm not sure what I would have done. I'll show a pic of that one you will see why I would have left town or something or maybe jumped off a bridge lol. Doc I let mine sit for about two weeks for the best result don't forget to neutralize the acid as soon as your done with the roon.
  3. Nice job Hags I made a rig for a Ruger 44 mag and for a grizzly bear hunt the guy took a great pic of him and his sons with the bear but without the holster on o well as far as the holster goes, I put quick disconnects on the front. the way the guy wears it is not the way I intended it to be worn but he says he loves it but as far as adjustments go after this holster I have no idea LOL it was not intended to wear in his arm pit LOL

  5. That sure is a nice-looking holster and a fine piece of work you did' , I hope the guy gets you pictures of the bear with him wearing the rig.
  6. For the fine stuff, I use a pattern maker's head knife from gomph for just about everything else I use a 5" head knife. I didn't like head knives at first but once I got used to them it was hard to use anything else the pattern head knives are the best for tight close twists and turns.

    Hello

    Hello from Boston mass. Glad to have you aboard.
  11. loophole center to center just go through the same slot i like some room between the bullets so i would make the slots about 1" apart pull the leather through go across the back out wrap the leather around the bullet go back through the face and keep doing that a decorative rivet that holds the leather at each bullet you cant go wrong with this method and it looks very nice. hope this helps Frodo the ones shown are 44 mag but set at each six you can put a spot in between each bullet like a 1/4" fast rivet

    New pistol

    the ride looks good but I would clear that leather from the grip area you don't want to be grabbing leather. Also end the stitching at the trigger guard about 1/4" lower back stitch it just a bit , the stitching at the round of the trigger guard I would get it closer and at the muzzle end I would get the stitching closer to the frame. that's all if this is a holster to carry . If it's just something to put the gun in then that's not a problem. All that said you did a clean job . And this is all just my opinion not meant in any way to criticize.
  25. Beautiful job !
