That's a nice sling any ar would be happy to have it.

I will when I can get back out in my garage to work this spring its just to darn cold right now lol. That's where I do most of my knife making and antler work for some reason the wife doesn't like the smell of burnt antlers in the house lol. Thank you.

One coat so far and I laid I on kinda thick then heated up the leather till it soaked in then rubbed it down it will even out in a couple of days and may get a bit lighter though not much.

Thank you, I made those grips also Good ole Wyoming Elk antler.

Better put this here now as its done. You can still tell me what I jacked up if you want. Its flat backed and made with 9 oz w&c leather mildly wet formed and burnished a bit and edge koted then I used some Fiebings Golden Mink oil to finish and water proof it. The next change to the pattern will be moving the strap up about 3/4" so it can be carried cocked if wanted.

that first one sure looks like a finger muncher lol look at that gear assembly hangin out there.

that's a good price for a handmade knife they are nice indeed!

I make mine from brass rod its pretty easy to do.

I think rivets would eventually loosen up in fabric then they just pop through the hole that's why you don't see it done a lot , sewing is the best for fabrics and webbing imo You do it right and you'll never have a problem.

The back is what impresses me, those cuts are simple but beautiful, is it a lined belt or are those cuts on the rough ? I couldn't help looking deeper into this man what a humble honest and caring person he must have been his work is amazing.

great work indeed

I think you can easily repair them as well or better than new but any insurance company more than likely would not protect the wearer if he did get hurt no matter if your work failed or not, OSHA wouldn't accept it either. Personally if an employee of mine brought in safety gear that was altered or rebuilt by anyone other than the manufacturer or people qualified to do repairs on their product it would be a get them out of here situation. That is why people sue the repairers because they get these things repaired without thought of laws, rules and insurance companies then when they get hurt they have no other options to cover their own personal negligence of not just buying a new pair. Yes we live in a world devoid of common sense.

very nice and handy , how does it work It appears to be wider than the strap shown is there an edge on the template that keeps the marks a certain distance from the edge of the leather? Will it do multiple widths of belt?

Very good looking set. That's quite a bunch of work there.

I like that color combo. Me id be drawing penguins it isn't so warm here lol.

How thick is the leather you use? those are cool indeed.

That is one cool old car! they used those same brakes on my jeep in 68 lol.

That's nice tooling on such a small piece. Great job!!

That's gonna look nice, great sketch work!

beautiful!!!

Lol the movies only show a fraction of this beautiful country and most of that is the touristy part, believe me there is much more that most folks don't even know about. LOL yup!

Very nice!!

That's a lot of hand work and it came out beautiful Truly a piece of art!

LOL yea it was at least a county full and I might have known them I'm not offended a bit . We have a ton of Deer also My daughter will give em an apple once in a while so now when they see her they come runnin and follow her around like puppies.
