Don't call it a Small of the Back Holster, and print up a piece of paper with instructions warning that it is not recommended to be used as an SOB holster and the potential injury if it is.... give that with holster purchase... it might help if you have concerns.. And Semper Fi Brother! Rummy

There's a free Utility called PIXResizer that I use. Create a file in your Pictures folder or wherever, name it "Resized Pictures" or whatever you want, download Utility.....you select the picture and choose the new size, then once it is resized, send to your new destination folder. Also will do Batch resizing....pretty slick! Rummy Oh....and nice looking work! Rummy

Thanks for the tips, I'm the foreman in a wood shop so modifying wood is no problem! Or making new handles with a lathe for that matter. Appreciate the good help! Rummy

Thanks for the help!! Rummy

Hi all, I am going to hand stitch...saddle stitch 10-12 oz leather.. I'm confused about awl blades, sizes, etc.... I was looking at the 4 in One set from Springfield leather but not sure if these blades are what I need. I need a Diamond blade as far as I know... I'm using this thread http://springfieldleather.com/Thread-Wax-Nyltex-DkBrown-25yd and 000 Harness Needles, so would this awl set work http://springfieldleather.com/Awl-4-in-1-Haft-Blade ? or should I get a haft and a specific blade size for this project?? Appreciate any help!! Trying to get an order together from Springfield Leather tonight. Thanks, Rummy

Thanks Troy, I'm just west of Winchester 15 min. or so, not too far from ya. Rummy

Hi all....New to leatherworking, I have a lot to learn and have learned a good bit just browsing today. Good stuff! I plan on making a rifle scabbard and right now I'm looking at what tools to get, awl blade sizes, thread, etc, etc.. Glad to be here, Rummy
