  1. Its very easy once melted, however the fumes are very dangerous don't consider melting it at all. The hot lead will burn you handles. Bismuth from a reloading supply store would be your best bet. You can get whatever size shot works fill the void with the shot then pour in the epoxy over it. That way no heat and above all no fumes. Another thing lead may be illegal in some states. Bismuth would be safer by far.

  3. Why does a house burn down but everything in it burns up? If olives need oil then why do they sell it in different bottles? Same with corn?
  4. It could have been for any number of bending ,pressing or light stamping applications in just about any thing from tin and light metal to leather and it still can be lol.
  5. Thank you for that it says springtime all over it.
  6. its in the percussion pistol pattern pack I think tandy still has it in their library. Its a civil war era holster
  7. Your right that is the good thing, likely i; m sure but it doesn't I know cause i have one or two. Anyway one thing i do know from actually making and using my design and looking at his is that the top flap hinders the reload more than anything, and it is the primary reason either style would rotate up on the belt not the speed loaders them selves they are not in tight, at least mine aren't it should be a one handed operation. You may notice my top flap is long enough it hangs a bit below the bottom allowing easier manipulation of the snap and flap, think upside down thumb break. The hand comes up from the bottom unsnapping and moving the flap at the same time. Unlike the Velcro on his the snap is much easier to unfasten so doesn't pull the holster with it. As you can see by the temporary attachments I did spend some time thinking and working this out. Make the snap tongue to long and it catches on stuff, make it to short and its not easy to open. if you want it stiffer then use heavier leather on the back strap. Just other options and ideas the man can use or not that's what the forum is for right?
  8. My daddy had a saying "its your house you can paint it any color you want", i stand by that saying too.
  9. it would be a biiig cat to piss on a whole hide, cutting off the bad spots might work too.
  10. thank you. that was the prototype lol. They look much nicer when done completely.
  11. vinegar kills the smell of cat piss somewhat dont know what it does to leather though. on any of the ideas test before committing.
  12. you can make these out of strap with no waste, no fancy cutters in minutes, just my opine but those are way overthunk!
  13. well done! I would need three pairs of glasses to make those. lol
  14. more likely old age. that picture has to be 60 year old at least. Yea i make mine from two pieces of strap.
  15. here is how i make them . With a double thick flap on the back. it can be used without a belt also just by sliding the flap inside you waistband or into a pocket. I don't make the flap on the larger phones go all the way to the bottom of the case but they work just as well.
