  1. Flawless looking! Great work!!
  2. That's a fine looking rig!!
  3. Thanks for the responses... I'll look into a roller cabinet...
  4. Now, now... No rocks... I'll just throw this very badly designed holster of mine... lol
  5. Awesome color... awesome craftsmanship... awesome everything!!!!
  6. http://www.harborfreight.com/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/370x/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/i/m/image_11844.jpg Just curious if anyone is using this box. Looking for an upgrade; need more storage...
  7. Dude... you're awesome!!
  8. Way better that my first attempt at an avenger, right JLS?? lol @deloera Listen and take notes for JLS. He's the man that can make you see things from a whole new perspective ..... Or pester him until he offers the pattern for the gun your working with!
  9. See....... Yours always comes out so clean.....
  10. Thanks for all the help! Gonna give it another try soon... Love getting to pick your brain!! So the "front" belt slot needs to be as close to the bend as possible? And, needs as much "meat" as possible along the back?
  11. My biggest mistake was not waiting on you to offer a pattern for the sr40c!! LOL Design mistakes are: I think my overall design needs to be tweaked to say the least. To much material behind the back belt slot. The stiffener could have been designed with a better flowing line. Backside of the stiffener is over sized for the area. The trigger guard stitch line could have been tighter. Needs lines that flow. Belt slots need to be executed better. But, what I learned the most is that I need to make more corrections to my patterns before cutting the leather. I tried to do to much on the fly...
  12. My first ever attempt at an avenger style holster. No where near perfect by a long shot, but I learned A LOT making it.
  13. Anyone have any pictures of a double loop laced edge that also has a stamped border near the lacing? I'm working on a project and am afraid it's going to look to plain with just a laced edge... Any ideas of ways to dress a laced edge up?
  14. How do you recommend someone care for leather that has been finished with acrylic resolene?
  15. WOW!!! That is truly awesome work!! Great detail!!
  16. I really had no idea of where to start. @NVLeatherWorx- Thanks for the info! Your 50/50 mix with the Resolene, is that tap water or distilled? @JLSleather- Always a pleasure getting your input on things! Thanks for pointing out the don'ts for me. I need all the brain cells I have left!!!
  17. Hey guys!! I'm changing from water-based dyes to spirit based and I have a few questions. First of all, what can you use to reduce spirit-based dyes? Second, when can I oil the leather with neadsfoot oil? Before dye? Between dye and finish? After finish? The finish I have chosen to use is Resolene. Any input will be greatly appreciated...
