Thanks

One Word...NICE.

That ray looks great.

Been working on a couple of belts for my Dad and I this weekend, He picked the skins up at a rattlesnake festival down in Florida about a month or two ago. I have added a couple of pictures of the progress made this weekend, I am doing a double stitch on the one in the picture, but does anyone have another way or another option then the route i am taking on keeping the skin in place. Thoughts would be appreciated.

Thank you, i guess the thickness does not matter on these.lol

Just posting some things I have been working on. Messing around with different patterns and what-knots.

Thanks for the help there fellas.

Anyone have any ideas on a Mares Leg holster that sets on your back? I'm thinking of running a strap with snaps that can be attached to a buckle that's mounted to the holster, Basically make a strap that goes from over the shoulder to the waist with an attachment that will connect to the belt to help secure the holster when you draw the weapon. Any other ideas would be great.

Awesome, Just gave me an idea on the one i am making now.

and the other pictures

Just adding a few pictures of a buscadero belt, Im sure something is wrong, but anyhow here the pictures are.

I guess i just got bent out of shape, but some of ther op comments make out like they are talking to a Dumb Adoubles, When the fact is, the holsters mentioned were not complete and do wet form to the firearms quite nicley when boning has been completed,any way thanks a great deal.

Well Dickf, I measured the holsters and you are correct. The measurement makes it 12 oz, but i still get good molding on the holsters when they are molded out. Just saying. To each his own. I understand what everyone is saying about the leather by thinking it is too thick, but i think all are not correct. The holsters come out fine when complete, but who am i to say since i am not a 30-40 year veteran on leather work . I guess Everyone can and does make things different. I can take constructive criticism and appreciate helpful statements not people trying to act like.... anyway I know that wet forming is done before sealing, The holsters were made and I applied neats foot oil. The wet forming takes place later. I appreciate the chart on leather thickness str8line that will help out the next time i post a 12oz leather holster or a 12 oz belt there will be no mistake on the size of the leather. So ask me how i know my tension is off, I do know this , I have been working to get it corrected, I just received the manual for it and have been waiting on it to come in to correct it. Anyway I am done here for now and appreciate all the advise, good or bad. I hope i can repay the favor to some of you when i can.

Just curious, how much time do you have in the completion of the whole suit? By the way it looks great.

I just can not figure how you all with the measurement eyesight can tell the leather is way to thick. I'm telling you all that it is 7-8 oz, now whatever you used to gauge the material, i would truly like to know so i can look at a picture and think i know all the aspects of whether the leather is way too heavy or inappropriately weight for the types of holsters i build, I think they work out just fine and if i were building your design on a holster i could consider your critique on the weight of leather i am using, but since i am not building your holsters i think that they are fine. Anyway thanks for the leather thickness class. Agreed.

Awesome Post. Thank You

Looks good.

Love the design, great tooling.
