Rick the 2" x 46 is I need to be veg tanned 4 oz. I am not sure on the mesurment of the collar I will post that later today thanks my friend. Josh

Howdy friends I am making a breast collar and need enough latigo to make them but I don't want to get a whole side can you assist. Item number two a 2 inch strip if 4 oz leather about 43 long. I am willing to pay for your trouble and martial thank you. Josh

Good info art I have been renting from them for some time great resourse. Josh

Adding to what's already been asked and stated, kydex would work nice but this can be done with leather but it's a real project first off I need to know what kind of holster and how it will be worn and then I can get in to design this should be very interesting to see what ideas are thrown out here. Josh

Thanks guys that great stuff. Rick I am very gratefull to you, I have goten a lot of help from you thanks. Josh

Whats the best way to clean a saddle dirty from dust and dirt. I was asked to clean some saddels up real nice and what's a good price for some thing like that. Thanks Josh

Thanks Kate I looked it over good and showed it to the buyers and came up with a few changes. The design on the back has a reason and that is it pivots there making it a breeze to open but it's a week point as well, any way changes are in works. Josh

Thanks Dave and Max I agree with you on the flap for sure make that a one piece unit, if you look at the flap you will see that it's really not a snap closer it's a rare earth magnet that's just a concho not visable from the inside. Josh

Thanks Sam for the input. And thanks again for all Josh

You know those little foot sized saddles for display and stuff, were can I get a tree or even a patteren for those. Thanks Josh

Wow some great stories I think this has been a good thread. Josh

Howdy I make knives and sheathes among other things my advice to you is as follows, 1. Don't make any thing that holds a weapon before you know what's what. 2. My thoughts are that a good sheath is one that is safe. 3. So wild rose trading I think is Chuck burrows website look that up he has some great tips on there you can print out. Sheath making guide 4. You can use a hole bunch of different leathers for sheathes but for starters vegy tan 9/10 oz will be top notch. 5. There a couple books that are cheap that give good idea of sheathes I will post those later. 6. Also what kind of knife makes a huge difference is it folding or a fixed blade. 7.this Is a start I will add on later. Josh

Howdy all I need some input on some saddle bags for horse back. No carving I little stamping regular size full veg tanned leather what's the going rate for a custom set. Thanks Josh

Well I regret not having a camera with me it was a heavnly scene and as I sat there I thought it dosent get better then this. Great storys all very interesting. Josh
