It’s funny, after he brought that over and I handled it with the lazer I liked it so much I ordered one for my Sig. The one on the Sig is made by them and really fit nice, looking like an integral part of the gun, and has a lifetime warranty. It’s also a green lazer I like green better, his is red.

I never touched a sewing machine in my life till I got my Cowboy 4500. man, did I stitch up a pile of scrap practicing. Under and around my machine looked like a barbers chair at the end of a busy day, except it was cut up pieces of thread

I can’t help you with your project but I hope you find someone that can. I lived around you about 40 years ago in Ridley Park. Good luck!

For avoiding skipped stitches, when your needle is coming up you’ll see the thread above the needle go taut- your hooks got it then and you won’t loose the next stitch.

That looks great, the minor stitching hiccup going around the end is a learning experience. Your dog will never notice!

I wrap some of my stamps with blue painters tape, a lot to build it up. What resist were you using? I use tan kote, but even with that I don’t let any antique sit for long. I usually wipe it off right away.

Thanks Chuck!

Thanks folks!

A sawsall blade with the top of the blade ground down to fit in the hole will work as a broach.

Believe it or not, they both have Fiebings British Tan. the top pictures were taken in a light box, so the lighting was diffused, the bottom one was taken outdoors. they both actually look more like the top one in person.

If you use that Coco Bolo be careful, some folks are allergic to it. I won't go into what it did to me a couple times but I stopped using it around twenty years ago.

My neighbor asked me to make him a holster for his Ruger LCP with a Crimson Trace lazer so I made this for him...the two top photos. then I made another one for my Sig 365X after I put a Sig Lima lazer on it to fit for the added lazer. I've been wearing this one the last few days before photos so it shows a little wear. bottom photos.

It’s always nice to wake up in the morning and still be on the green side of the grass, on the other hand sometimes there’s things worse then death.

Those are some nice looking scabbards.

I also have a 8500 Kw portable I bought years ago to run my well in the woods when I just had a camper there. Then I converted it to run on natural gas and had a hose connected to my meter at the house in the city, to the back yard where my electrical panal was and back fed the panal thru a 50 amp breaker. One time it ran for two days non stop
