Saw a charge on my account from W&C today. I can't wait to try their product. If I like it I guess I'll keep an order out there so I don't have as long a wait next time. Jake

Does anyone else care to chime in on this question? Jake

+1 on that noise. Although well done hand stitching looks the best. Thanks for the replies, guys. I figured most everyone was pressing the stitches but if you weren't, I wanted to know what your trick was for closing the holes. Jake

Just to update my own thread, I found some nice maple leaf patterns ( and pines and oaks too) in a book I received today. Inverted Leather Carving, by Al Stohlman Jake

Do any of you wet and then press down your stitching after machine sewing a holster? I saw it done on the Bianchi DVD set. Jake

Chief, ever find out what that hide was? Jake

Very cool! Jake

Rob, Do the Blue guns come with a magazine ,or will that need to be ordered separate? Jake

What method did you use around the insert edges, pitman? Also, did you make the knife, too? That's really a stunning set. I keep coming back and looking at them. Thanks, Jake

That's a beauty! Jake

Be sure to take him some Canadian Beer, too!

Not much difference from a penny to a dime.

I've been tracing and sewing penny sized circles. Much improved over before. Jake

Wiz, I may take you up on that the next time I come home. Jake

Now it makes sense..Thanks! Jake

Loop out the back through the same hole?? Having trouble picturing that Dwight. Are you say you do not sew between each loop? Jake

I was going to put this in "How do I do that".... How do I convince Tandy to put up a picture of George Hurst in full Steampunk garb that he makes in their Leathercraft Library project videos?? Jake

Or an online content...either way the greenhorn machine owner would certainly benefit...someone like me! I'm actually a little surprised DVD's on the subject don't already exist. It's a potential add-on sale for every sewing machine sold, I would think. How many "help" phone calls it could save the dealers, particularly if it was machine specific? All good theory, but is it practical? What would make for interesting content, I think, would be to take an absolute beginner and sit them down and film the lesson. Jake

Very nice work, CT. Jake

Thanks, Bob. I saved a copy of the order form but our printer is acting wacky. Jake

You should only post this under one forum heading.

Thanks, George. How's the back side? Smooth enough for a rough side out holster? Not fuzzy? Jake

I'm more interested in something life-sized, but thanks for the info. Jake

If some expert put together a dvd, or a dvd set, with all their accumulated knowledge in it, I'd buy it in a second. From set up to maintenance. What needle and foot combo to use, how to choose thread and needle for what you are sewing, trouble shooting, practice exercises...you get the idea. Jake
