  1. Really nice!
  2. Hey IrishD, how'd you get the leather to adhear to the curve of the flask? Did you glue it before you laced it?

    I used Mink Oil and my sable buffing brush to finish up. Also found out that I can buff it too much. Oops. I buffed off the edges a bit. Sooo, fixed that then reapplied finish and mink oil and LIGHTLY buffed it to make it shine. Much better the second time.

    Used Eco Flo, Super Sheene finish. Took a couple coats. Leather sucked that stuff right in.

    Stitched it together using the waxed thread from the kit. Went together pretty well. Used Gum T on the inside to smooth things a little more for the draw.

    Used Eco Flo Coal Black dye. Had to do three coats. Must have got some oil from my fingers on the leather...didn't take well on the first coat. Also applied a couple of coats of edge coat after I buffed the edges.

    I did a temporary stitch and wet-formed the leather around the weapon. I wrapped the pistol in plastic wrap so the damp leather wouldn't damage it. The leather formed nicely around it. I found out a boning tool will remove all the work I did on the basket weave so I just used my fingers to get it close. Anybody have any tips on that?

    My first project since 1976. Simple conceal holster for my brother-in-law for this Christmas. I'll upload my process. Any tips and comments you might have would be appreciated. Thanks!
