  1. I second that bodean, I ordered from them and had it in 2nd days
  2. I bet you're a real... Ahem... Fungi... To be around
  3. That should be the new smiley for Walmart... As an employee, I can say two face is fitting. Haha
  4. For applying edge dye, try a sharpened pencil. It's nearly the same shape as those expensive conical applicators and works the same or better.
  5. 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.
  6. 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
  7. 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
  8. 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
  9. 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.
  10. Ah ok. Thanks. It's easier than I thought haha. Well, I say "easy" but, we all know how deceptively difficult it can really be haha.
  11. How did you do that lettering? I mean the technique not the actual letters. Did you use a groover? Looks awesome
  12. 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.
  13. Nice! I know what you mean about repeat projects sometimes. Not as challenging. But for me anyways, I enjoy just making something haha.
  14. I like the last two sheaths the best. They are uniquely designed and I like the style.
  15. Kinda scared to see the hand that fits that glove... Haha just foolin.. All looks good though, in all seriousness
  16. 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.
  17. Then you couldn't be an adventurer any more! Hehe This quiver is exquisite! Great work!
