new wallet back stamp
Stetson912 replied to Studio-N's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
That should be the new smiley for Walmart... As an employee, I can say two face is fitting. Haha -
Yup the white lightning one. I did notice the pebble grounder in the other piece too but it's more spread out and not repetitive like the white lightning one. But that's what scraps is fer. Haha. I still love your work and still am jealous. Haha.

measuring belts for western/plate style buckles
Stetson912 replied to jasonmccluer's topic in How Do I Do That?
I'm making one myself. The buckle should be here today. Just have some letters to tool and we will see how it looks. I'm using a double shoulder I got from Roger at rjf. Seems nice so far. Look forward to seeing what ya make -
measuring belts for western/plate style buckles
Stetson912 replied to jasonmccluer's topic in How Do I Do That?
Yup, that's exactly how to do it haha. I've seen also to put the hook end of the buckle where the center hole will be and measure 4 inches from the end of the buckle and add that to the billet end just to be sure you have enough length to get through the buckle. (Using the image jls provided above, you measure to the right 4inches) hope it helps. It good to make sure there's enough billet, it's a lot easier to cut off some leather than add more hehe -
Awesome as usual. On the second one, the pebble grounder. Do you rotate the tool when you is it? It just seems like the pattern is predictable and I was thinking that rotating the tool as you go would randomize it more. Just a thought

buckstitching causing uneven edge - how to avoid?
Stetson912 replied to thekid77's topic in How Do I Do That?
I'm not too familiar with buck stitching, but maybe lessen the tension of the stitch. I know when saddle stitching if I pull the stitches too tight it causes the edge to get wrinkly . Sometimes tapping the stitches with a hammer helps even it all out but not always. -

How did you do that lettering? I mean the technique not the actual letters. Did you use a groover? Looks awesome -
Thin Blue Line cuff or bracelet

Looks awesome Bruce. And a worthy tribute. -
Al stohlman's book on case making (vol. 3 I think) has one that may be adapted to fit your needs. Or at least offer insight to creating your own.

Knife Sheaths, etc.

I like the last two sheaths the best. They are uniquely designed and I like the style. -
First Bag

Looks good. -
I've been searching around a little. I haven't found one for purchase but you can rent one for two weeks here. https://americanholstercompany.com/mold-gun-rental/ They have a 2 and 4" model. Just scroll down to the drop list and it shows what they offer. I also can't comment on the reliability or integrity of the vendor. I'm just searching around.
