    I'll have to use a strap or snap as I don't have any sort use. But I think the construction is a good method. It isn't full size and probably not as good as they used to be. I bought it on Amazon haha. Thanks!

    I don't, I wish I did. I will have to figure out how to make a pouch for those caps now haha.
  3. Stetson912
    I hadn't thought too but that sounds like a good idea! Just a little box type thing to stuff a bunch into?

    Or be the one robbing them... I wouldn't put it past him... He can cause some mischief I reckon. It is really over built tho, 10/12 oz saddle skirting for all of it haha. The little cap gun only weighs a few ounces hahaha although that's unloaded... We all know how heavy them 8 shot ring caps can get... Might add a gram or two!
  5. Stetson912
    I hope he does. Good way to get rid of that cheap skirting too, that stuff is fuzzy and hard to work with. Not much of an it left though now haha. I'm thinking I might add a hammer thong too. Just cuz

    This project was fun, it's a Mexican loop holster and belt for my nephew. It is for a little cap gun I got for him. He is 5 and like playing pretend and stuff so, I thought this could help with that. Let me know what you think. The pics show the holster still wet and I'll just do a wax finish on it.

    Very nice! Did you birnish the edges? I'm not familiar with the Sully but I thought it was veg tan. And in my experience, I run my wood slicker over the corners when I nip them like that. It rounds them out pretty nice. Awesome work!

    Thanks Gary, I don't have a slot punch but I do want one. I did make my own pattern. I followed jls template on that with a few changes. Wow, that's a killer deal!

    Here's another one off my bench. A holster for a SW Shield 9mm. I tried building it in the curved style. The retention on this one is really nice. I'm happy with that. Threw in a cool Paracord bullet bracelet for kicks, force patina 9mm shells to match haha. It is 2 layers of 4/5 oz stuck together. Critiques welcome. Thanks!

    This, this is good. I like , more power to ya for painting that with a nail art brush. Beyond my skills haha.

    Haha yeah, I like rings molds a lot. B ut the cooks work just the same. Not as pretty but that's not what matters haha
  15. Stetson912
    Right, I hear ya. I'm using a prepped mold that was sent to me for a m p sheild but I may cut most of it off haha. I just saw it on hold and it looks really close if not the same. I've also heard people cutting down commander molds to use for the officer model but, I don't like that either. It's the first 3.5" 1911 dummy I've seen though
  16. Stetson912
    From the pictures it looks pretty close to an officer acp. I've used cooks molds before and they are just fine. I prefer the unprepped version though. Prepped means they filled in the trigger area and put a "dowell" along the top to mold a sight channel. Only issue is it runs the whole length of the slide which is ok I guess, bit I don't like that personally.
  17. Stetson912
    Well idk if you've seen this one. Idk if it's different or not. Let me know what you think.https://www.holstersmith.com/vcom/cooks-gun-molds-rock-island-armory-c-555_656_832.html

    Does it have to be colt?
  19. Stetson912
    Very cool
  20. Stetson912
    Thanks man, yeah sometimes the down n dirty simpler projects that hardly touch the marble are the super fun ones. Haha awesome thanks for sharing that. Give it a go! They're fun to make

    Thanks fredk, it's a challenge for me being that small. My swivel skills aren't the best haha
  22. Stetson912
    Font is kunster script (I think) I used inkscape to size it and printed it out. Traced to the leather and lightly cut it in with my 1/4" angle swivel knife blade. Then after I dyed and had a few layers of sealer I used watered down black acrylic paint to antique it. Then sealed it with more mop n glo. Thanks! It is. It's what was requested too. Fiebings pro mahogany diluted a little with denatured alcohol and airbrushed in several applications. Thanks!
  23. Stetson912
    I have a few projects I'm trying to manage all at once. This was a super simple one so I thought I'd knock it out real quick. Used scrap leather. 3 mystery bracelets with names. Mahogany dye and mop n glo finish. Hope you enjoy! Ps. Sorry for the bad lighting names are Freddie, Kari, and Dave.

    Nice work!

    The hole cut looks a bit rough and jagged too, as if done after the fact. I love all the different thoughts and ideas and possibilities everyone comes up with. Several of them would work too. Just goes to show, more n one way to dress a salad... More n one way to skin your nose... No that's not it.... well, you get my drift eh? Haha
