    I was looking at that, awesome work indeed. Yea getting that curve right is kinda tricky. When i made mine i was wishing for my moms old sewing dummy, it sure would have made it much easier to get the shape around the shoulder.

    lol that's the biggest roach clip i ever seen don't let Cheech n Chong see that. Now for the serious its sure beautiful and like Retswerb said functional art, it would look great in anyone's house just for décor. I take it your selling those do you have a site?

    consider the seam type also in the overall strength a double felled seam may be a better choice.

    I dunno but all the ones here in Wyoming I have seen have one. Horses buck and trot and do a bunch of fun things that loose guns don't do well with. they also used holsters with a full flap. also they had holsters that fit over the saddle horns and weren't worn at all.It doesn't matter really its yours to make any way you want beautiful work indeed.

    They usually just had a loop around the hammer spur with this style of holster back in the day. Beautiful basket weave nice and crisp.

  19. chuck123wapati

    I think it takes much practice but in the meantime here's how i do it. lol I punch each piece separately from the finish side then glue using small brass brads about every inch or so to line up the holes then use an awl to clean and make sure they are in line. I use a piece of soft wood, pine, as a punching board and some beeswax for lube.

    LOL great work reminds me of a time I and a friend ran across a sleeping black bear while bow hunting.
  22. chuck123wapati
