never tried it but neodymium magnets are really strong they may be the ticket, i have bought flat 1 inch square ones and they come with a 1/8th inch plastic spacer between, if you get two stuck together its almost impossible to separate them.

Great post I just got blessed with two American bully pups and am in need also. My families problem is a 17 year old blind and deaf cat that uses anything on the floor as a pee stop. Please post some pics and maybe instructions on your build. I was thinking just a couple of the felt type throws with about two inches of batting inside sewn up, definitely needs to be washable.

deer cannot be tooled to my knowledge, the roll type is great for backgammon because the dice cups double as ends for the roll and everything fits inside.

i would use deer hide or some such light leather if you want it to bunch up like a bag and dye the squares on it. If you want to tool it try a tuck and roll pattern, cut the lines then bevel both sides, use a seed stamp for the buttons and cut some fold lines similar to the center pattern on my backgammon board.

ball swivel mount, ball and socket mount

if you have s drill press Frodo chuck them up and use a file then some sand paper to finish the process.

maybe post some of your own and they will change, i think that is what happens but dont know for sure.

you could build a couple of spacers for your 20t, you wouldn't need a gauge then.

Heck yea!!!

nice work !!!

Hardening and tempering details are easy to obtain from the steel manufactures they aren't secret by any means. Its how well the tool makers can reproduce with certainty the process every time that create better tool makers than others. Type of high carbon steel used is just a part of the equation imo and not as important as in the end its a mater of the finished hardness and temper being correct for the tool and work it will be doing. I agree with you the cheapest and most expensive can be just as sharp.

Heck yea !!!

sorry it took so long to respond, I was havin a Beer lol. Now what was it again we were talkin about lol. Oh yea why have a punch and could use a beer when you can have a beer and use a punch.

great video, Man it takes some work to make something look used lol.

Awesome work, nothing quite like self-made tools! Its always beer thirty somewhere lol.

oh man that's nice iron and nice leather!

maybe get a course grained sponge, they use them a lot for watercolor painting, and mottle the whole belt.

Those are called happy mistakes by Bob Ross lol.

Very nice!!!!! green thread would make it pop and tie it together too.

yes a bit of Elk antler.

ok then you have ruled out hundreds of pistols that arent used for concealed carry. I would research popular cc weapons and start from there,

i use a leather thong ran through the belt loop, the button hole fits the thong kind of tight then a half hitch knot knot is all that is needed after that and makes it easy to loosen, just pull on the hitch side to slide the button and loosen the strap. .

What kind of holsters do you intend to make? Western, Concealed carry, hunting?

I agree, there isn't a darn thing wrong with being opinionated, His work is excellent as are his designs.
