Turned a concho into a snap concho now that I know it can be done the next one will have matching rivet drilled out the concho line 24 already had a hole i used a hollow river and set tool but learned the set tool will not fit inside the snap, so I used a punch to start the mushrooming process and finished with the line 20 set tool

Doubles as a pouch for my 44 mag

My rifle only holds Five also, you made a 10 round pouch that will last you all weekend . I like that idea very much most of the hunters that buy mine are sick and tired of three cheap spandex thing on the rifle butt , the holes stretch out and you lose ammo in the woods

Hummm ? 10rd? I like that idea, I make 5 rd ones and yes they sell, the snaps keep the rounds from falling out while walking

Not really, it turns it dark and that us about the extent of it what does seem to work is cheap liquid polish you get at that dollar major store it slicks down the fibers well, I use it on the back side

Thank you for the reply, the front panel does go over the gusset. At the top but not at the bottom, Is that what you meant? Cover the bottom also? Hmmmm, not a bad idea the outside panel is 2” smaller or 4” total narrower than the back panel maybe this picture will help. The first image you saw was kinda crappy Shows offset Shows flap over gusset

Thank you, That is the look I was trying to achieve.

I made a set of saddle bags but seemed to have misplaced the horse the bag itself is a Herman oak split back strap is 9oz veg tan flap and straps are 6oz veg tan saddle tan antique with neutral resolene as a resist. And tan kote finish front panel of the Bag is 2” smaller than the back giving the bag an “offset” look

Well then, That is the way I will go thanks for the input guys pre-she-ate-it

I bought a side gyom Springfield that is a veg tan split I found a huge brand on it and decided to make the brand part of the project here is my project First image is the front panel next is the back panel and then flap what I am wondering is the best method to highlight the brand when I apply my stain I will be using an antique saddle tan should I first paint the brand with a resist

Edited you take anything apart turn the crank so that the handle is in the 12 o’clock position take a picture of the orientation of the 2 cams in relation to the 12 o’clock handle this picture wil be of help at a later time . At the same time open the bobbin door and take a picture of the orientation of the bobbin carrier hook in relation with the needle while the handle on the crank is at 12 oclock

Thanks Billy I am toying with using 2 punches and a border of sewing machine holes without thread i need to make a jig so the holes will be equally spaced

This design is not mine it is from a shoe called Florsheim I am intrigued by using a hole punch to make a design on leather Has anyone here done this and if you have please show your finished product

I cut the design off of the leather and sewed it onto a credit card thingy using lamb skin
