That works also. I prefer to do it the other way so I can cut like 4 er 6 er 10, glue and sew, form 'em as they are ordered. Just saves time, and ensures that when a customer comes back for another, or his buddy sees it and wants one, the next one is just like that one (though not identical).
The purpose of that video was actually that "fade" thing SO MANY were on about for YEARS. LEather workers will take turns claiming the invented it, but Gibson Guitars made that big decades ago, calling it "sunburst". Guys were taking turns making HOUR LONG videos about it, so I thought somebody might benefit from seeing it done in 3 minutes
That said, I can't find the pic of THAT holster... can't keep em ALL. But this is a G19 done the SAME WAY, but with a reinforcement panel. From this you kin prolly tell that it's not "flat", its actually curved BEYOND flat to a natural curve. This is assembled and sewn before forming.
Jeff, is the Glock 17/19 pattern on your etsy site this style or 50/50? There is nothing in the descriptions of your patterns to indicate which.
Thanks

Jeff, I disagree about the value of the Adams videos. He has some methods of work which are good to look at and the pace is OK to digest what he's discussing. His workmanship is good but the gripe I have with his patterns is they are 50/50 pancakes except for one he did on revolvers. I think one or two is worth a look. The EDC videos are a confounding waste of time.
