  1. Thanks, I'll look into it.
  2. I have a Pfaff 130 I picked up a couple of years ago. It came in an after market plastic case that has given up the ghost. I would really like a table I could use it on. The dang thing is so heavy it's hard to use in the case. Any ideas?
  3. Thank you.
  4. Thank you!
  5. I met a young man (just about all of them are young now) who is a roofer. He showed me a "holster" he had for his phone that reall looked like a Tandy kit someone put together from pretty crappie leather. It was falling apart. He asked me if I cou l d make a heavier duty version that would include his quote book, phone, and pen. Didn't need to be fancy........... May be I got carried away in the spirit of the moment... Hermann Oak 8/9, except for the divider inside that is HO 5/6 277 bonded nylon top and bottom. I do like to surprise people. He got his money's worth!
  6. It just fits in the back pocket. You just enter one number (hopefully low numbers) so you just move it to one side, put in the number, then back in the pocket. It's not a note pad. It's become popular in the past week. I've added a pencil loop in the middle and gone to a narrower elastic.
  7. Very, very nice. Beautiful font.
  8. Nice work! I have built several of these, recently, 4 smaller ones to fit across the drawer in my carving desk.
  9. Nice job! Not really a fan either, but, not my circus, not my monkey.
  10. Very nice Zippen! Glad to have you.
  11. First one's tough. Good job!
  12. I do like me some Oak leaves! Nice work.
  13. I've made quite a few of those! Who would've believed the different methods of making an oval.
  14. I have done several holsters for NAAs. Pocket, iwb mostly. I carry an lcp a lot, usually in a pancake, but have a pocket sleeve for winter. The little gun you have beats the one you left at home by a mile. Nice looking Chuck.
  15. I like those shorter dividers. Might have to look him up. The last punch I bought from Osborne I sent back as unusable. Very disappointed.
  16. 1750
  17. I have about $50 in this one. I bought the motor, a dual shaft Emerson Electric Manufacturing Company (God knows how old) for $10 at a garage sale. It had 2 Sears and Roebucks arbors on it, and several wheels, buffing and wire. I ran an ad on next-door for wood turners and gave the man one of the arbors and he turned the the burnisher for a $40 donation to one of the local charities. Works great and is dang near silent! The point on the end is great for belt slots etc.. I made the mount. Don't have anything on the left due to space.
  18. Yes J, they come out very nicely. You put your finger on the business end and lift up and they pop right up. Please understand that I used an under sized punch (5/16) top and bottom. Then wet the leather, then forced the rounds in. I let this dry, then oiled it, then replaced the rounds. The flaps are to ensure the rounds stay in place in the future. It has dried for several days now, and I still have to use a bit of force to get the rounds in. Dang sure a lot easier than loops. Wouldn't work on a cowboy rig though.
  19. Very cool!
  20. I make several items for our local golf course (I live on #3!). I recently did a bunch (420!) Coasters for a tournament, sand bottle holders, ball markers, etc. Our assistant pro recently asked me if I could come up witha score card holder. After burning through a bunch of scrap I found again that simple is just the best way sometimes when working with leather. This is 8/9oz HO that I skived at the fold. No sewing other than to attatch the leather to the elastic.
  21. Very nice work and thank you for the explaining process. I'm going to be trying that in the near future.
  22. Thank you all. I did not put any leather on the front of the gun. That is a typical mount for a 30/30 tube he bought off Amazon. It clamps over the tube very securely and does not cause any deformity. It is for a standard 1" sling.
  23. I have a logo made by Leatherstampmaker.com. They are a supporter of the forum. I then use a key fob die and stamp and cut basically key fobs out of scrap and use a sticky label on it for the price. I know it seems like a lot but it is pretty cool and I can do a bunch in no time.
  24. So anyway, I was not happy with the way I was getting reloads for my revolvers. After looking at this butt wrap idea,I thought why not make a 6 pack for pistol rds? Along the same lines,here we are. If there is interest, I will gladly share. It is so simple, it can't be new. But, the rds are captured, and cannot escape. It is very simple to make. Hope you can use this.
