you can get delrin in rod form a lot of places if you have a lathe shouldnt be hard to make

Thank you for the replys i have that book and several others but they assume you are braiding all the way around and back to the starting point. The problem is if you are starting at one point and lacing around to a different ending point so the dont join and wanting the beginning and end to look good.

I am doing a project with mexican round braid and i need some help. What i need to know is how to start and end the braid when the beginning and end are not in the same place. I need to start the braid on 1 side of the project and go around three sides and end on the opposite side. Any expert that can help i would greatly appreciate it.

I am doing a project where i want to use a mexican basket weave but it is not a complete circumference so it starts at one point and ends at another can anyone show mw how to start and end it?

i am getting the cocked and locked version but really didnt want to put wet learher against his colt to mold it. Also the 1911 is so popular i figure if it comes out well i may need ro do a few more and i might decide i want a colt myself one of thes days but i do like my ruger p85 for a carry. Thanks for the input also doing a 3 mag carry on the other side for balance it works well with my ruger and i dot need to tye it down it balances the weapon weight and i can use a double shoulder loop slip on with 2 inch elastic across the back and its easy on easy off and comforatable. Do you guys use any metal in the retainer for a thumb brake for quick open and draw? I was thinking of putting a slight curve in the thumb break to make it easy to flip and pull any input is appreciated. Thanks for the reply Monty

Thank you for the info Randy i dont do much with holsters usually just do cue cases but a friend in my apa pool league begged so im giving it a try.

Can anyone tell me the cheapest place to get a colt 1911 model 70 blue gun i need to make a shoulder carry for a friend.

Mike i should probably preface that answer i just gave by saying this isnt an exact science. All internet communication is 2 way even downloads as evfey packet is verified and the published speeds of the providers are the maximumj not the actual if your wireless signal is weak you probably dont achieve the best possible speed. That said the you will get closer to the actual speed with a solid land line so it is possible that the difference in speed could be less than the 50% that the published speeds indicate i hope this helps. Monty

Hi Mike that is about 1/2 your current speed Monty

You can avoid the blueing by putting down a coat of red before the black.

Just wanted to inject a big thank you to Steve at Leather Machine Co. the new Cobra 4 and the 29k60 are working great and the cobra stirch is awesome i couldnt be happier with the machines or with the excellent support from Steve.

Looks good you going to tattoo it for color?

Just wanted to put in another plug for Ed the bearmans mauls and to thank him for the ones he made me. They are just the right weight and strike well i think im going to really likr them so thanks again Ed.

Thats great Jay i build cue cases mostly one offs to this point but have a production line comming out in about 2 months i look forward to seeing it. I plan on getting around to posting a few of mine soon but have been really busy trying to get all things necesarry for the production runs ready.

Maybe try sealing with acrylic or other sealer after dye and before paint. I'm no expert but just a suggestion

Nice work Jay i'm always impressed with those who have artistic abilities i can draw a little but when it comes to coloring it im totally incompetant. Based on whats on the show off area now im a little old fashioned i like the tats and dyes not to sure about the printing, i think i would rather see a tatoo or airbrush paint myself but thats just a personal preferance

I use one of these and love it. you can connect any internal hard drive to it outside the case through the usb bus. its fast cheap and lets you buy a cheaper internal drive and use it as an external.http://www.xpcgear.com/usbdsc5.html

I use hard drives for all my back up and excess storage but there is a usb connection that you can find at computer stores that will allow you to use any regular inter hard drive as an external. I just plug one up tranfer to it and then return it to its anti static bag and put it on the shelf. This is the cheapest and fastest way i have found. I hope this helps, just works well for me.

it looks to me like it was hand stitched and the holes were mase with a punch not an awl as they are round.

great wallet and beautiful work, can you tell me where you got the black leather with that grain you used for the main part of the wallet been looking for that. thanks for the show

That was well said horsehairbraider and i might add excellent advice. I feel that anytime you inject yourself into someone elses business particularly if you are not a principal in the transaction you are asking for trouble. I was not a casemaker involved in this and if i interjected myself into the discussion i feel i would be inviting bad karma. Perhaps many people would be best served concentrating on their business and sales and not trying to critique others work to potential customers they only look small and defensive. just my nickles worth

they can also be bought from cue components on the web they make pool cues parts and sell blocks for buts and shaftsat www.cuecomponents.com

you can try cue components and the other cue making supply sites those are mainly shaft blanks for making shafts for pool cues
