beautiful work friend that jacket rocks! I would love the the thicker leather its gets colder than he## here but the wind is what is the worst, pushes that cold right through regular clothing.

Both look great!!! yea its a slim Jim, IMO, the only difference is because of the revolver shape. The slim jims were made for the black powder guns of the day that had the reloading lever under the barrel so have another little hump. Dont know much about the term walking holster i figure it is something left over from days past when they had pommel holsters and such that identified the holster as being carried on the hip or belt. You would get a pommel holster for you saddle and a walking holster for when on foot. Some folk put in a welt that matches the width of the trigger guard then taper it down as it follows the barrel, i never have but it reduces the stretch caused by the trigger guard in that area as it is used over time.

its a great idea very easy and simple.

i agree with you for once, whoda thunk it. But lets say it for what it is they treat their people like slaves and steal the intellectual property of every other country so they don't pay the necessary living costs or design costs that the rest of the world does. They spend their money on influencing politicians in every country.

it looks to me like it is one really big stamp used with a press of some kind.

look at black powder shot pouches, or black powder ball pouches.

Those are great guys and would make nice presents and such.

those are the best i have seen!

That is NICE!

i see no ball in the glove. Must be safe. I love your work friend.

Americans celebrated Independence Day on July 4th, the date the much-publicized Declaration of Independence was approved, rather than on July 2nd, the day the resolution of independence was adopted in a closed session of Congress. With their yes votes, the members of the Continental Congress became traitors to Great Britain and wanted criminals. That is why Ben Franklyn uttered his famous line, “We must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately.”

Thank you friend!

welcome that is a nice wrist band for sure, you are catching on very well.

i have used iridescent paints lightly air brushed here is a sample black with blue green and purple, i think if you did something similar with a silver it might work. if it were my project i would try a dry brush technique or maybe a sponge or paper towel drug across with very little silver to create that effect.

thank you for sharing !

you clicked on each of these filters i copied and posted below and only got one thing? that is odd it works for me even from the ones on this thread. Filter by: All, Craftaid Tracings, Doodle Page Sets, Doodle Pages, eBooks, Kids Projects, Pattern Pak, Tip Sheets, Tooling, Video, Video Only

just make your own, its not hard to do by any means and way cheaper.

go to the tandy site, tandyleather .com, at the top above the picture header you will see three options, shop, learn, new arrivals. Hold you pointer over learn for the drop down menu. Pick leathercraft library, right under that header picture you will see in very small letters "Filter by" with all the options, pick what you want to look at.

a lot of the Stohlman books are free on the tandy website site

well i think you pulled it off, that's some nice work.

i think that three hole chisel may be a lacing chisel and not for stitching but for lacing need a better pic of it.

lol i went down to buy some and they were unmarked and the kid there couldn't find the price so i got mine for free!!! That's a fine build! made me spit out my coffee! now that's funny.

very cool!

That was an awesome thing to do ! Darn right it was worth it!

thanks yea i just wanted a hint of iridescent look to it, i think it really set it off. That was a five hug project lol the daughter loved it.
