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!

Has anyone offered their help yet?

sounds like your trying to make the stamp without casing the leather, You need to case the leather with water by wiping it down with a wet sponge then leave it until it looks almost dry again. Case the whole piece then it wont leave a stain when it dries back out. If the leather is cased properly it should stamp easily you may want to google the casing process there are a ton of videos out there, here is a very good description of the process.https://dgsaddlery.com/properly-casing-leather/

three things come to mind good old copper rivet, Chicago screws with a washer on both sides or just have someone sew it correctly. if you use rivets make the holes in the webbing with red hot nail or some such the same size as the rivet or it will fray and tear out also. My hunting pack did the same thing, I just sewed mine correctly and it works great. You need tools for the copper rivets, the Chicago screws need some lock-tight and be sure they tighten against the fabric good or they wont help much either. REsewing would be the best IMO I think maybe even add some more material if you think it needs it.

Nice holster. Waste of a good shotgun imo monstrosity is right lol hope he paid his 200 bucks.

WOW that's awesome and yes you could quit your day job with stuff like that.

Simple and elegant! Love that.

I've read through some of this certainly not all of the comments but will add my two cents. My understanding about copyright laws is and I will use tee shirts for my example. Anyone can make a tee shirt because there is basically only one way to make a tee shirt so you cant copyright it because it has two holes for the arms one for the neck etc, nor can you copy right it because you made the arms an inch longer. You can copyright the cool design you put on, you can copyright the new material you created that you build it from or you can register you trademark that goes on it and then that is protected from being used by others but they can still make tee shirts, anyone can make a tee shirt and sell it as a tee shirt. Same with holsters a single action army has a certain shape and you cant make a single action army holster without using that shape. Stohlman used a shape in his pattern but anyone in about two minutes can find earlier examples that are exactly the same or darn close so his Holster design isn't really his to begin with and no one could prove you actually used his pattern, it a basic pattern for a single action army and it has to be shaped that way to fit the weapon, like a tee shirt. What you cant copy and sell as your own is Stohlmans art nor his books, same as the Harley Davidson logo, for example, or anything above and beyond that changes his holster from the normal basic revolver holster like a special snap or special tanning process for the leather etc.

That's a nice rig alright, I like how you did the plug especially. When I want something distressed I let my teenage son use it for a couple of weeks lol.

How would we know you don't say what state your in.
