Thanks for the video. It really is good. When you see it like that it is so simple. Thanks again.

Hey Dwight, Man, thanks for the information. This may be a stupid question, but what do you mean by "dress your edges?"

So you use a drill press but put a sewing needle in it? I thought about that but wasn't sure. Good advice I will try it. Thanks a bunch for your response.

I am new to leatherwork. I need to know how to punch holes through multiple layers of leather. I am using 8-10oz leather to make holsters. I have been using a drill with a tiny bit to make the holes through both layers so that the holes match up. I know this is not correct, but I have yet to find a good way to do this and ensure they line up. My holsters are turning out okay, but I want to do it right. Can someone let me know if they use their diamond awl to go through two layers at once? Can you let me know if there are different size diamond awls, and if so what size would you recommend. If you respond, pics would be great if possible. I really appreciate your time. I will attach a pic of a holster I did.

Thanks for the info. I will try the fieblings out.

man that saddle is awesome-looking. I sure appreciate how you are so willing to share your tips and processes with others.

I made this holster about a week ago. I tried to dye it black, but it did not ever get black. I am using water based eco something that I got at Tandy. What the heck did I do wrong? Any other critique would be gladly accepted as I am new to this.
