  2. I have a nephew. Busted him with his mouth on my glue can. I keep the can on lock down now. Damn kids
  3. You CAN use live primered rounds you WILL pop one, but the excitement factor is second to none do not try this at home, this info is for educational purposes only after you cut the round to desired length, squirts some oil or water into the case. let it sit s bit then carry on with your mad scientist business. pictured are live 22lr rivets
  4. I like the small cans of contact cement because they have a built in brush. The quart size do not have the brush but the quart cans are less expensive so I keep a small cam around and refill it frons larger can i fashioned a piece of paper into the shape of a funnel 4 3/4” tall, 2” diameter at the top and a 1/2” at the bottom then I poured the glue. The next day. Glue had hardened I had made a funnel
  5. When you use a metal straight edge the leather under the straight edge can move it has been my experience that the middle portion of the straight edge does not get enough weight pressed in it I personally am guilty on not pressing down in the center myself. Buy a c-clamp
  6. When you cut the edge the idles edge stretchfed when the event happens again that you described, check the edge that you measured from. The center of your cut has stretched on you when you cut it
  7. You did? Man I do not remember did you send it via a pm? If so it should still be there
  8. @tsunkasapa nice bags for sure i have a truck for you that you might use if you deem it worthy Use bullets as concho type rivets you have to only use these calibers because the end of case is wider than the sides 22 30/30 7.62x54 mmr. Russian mosin nagant ammo drill a hole on what ever you choose that is the size of the sides of the brass case. The thickness of the template is 1/4”. Or adjust as needed cut the brass, punch hole in leather I use a acorn brass nut screwed onto a threaded bold to flare the case out you will have to modify the angle of the acorn nut to get the desired flare hammer flat after flaring use fired shells

    Elastic

    This is interesting to me i have made a frodotype shoulder holster using 2” elastic as the strap around the chest, very comfy and holds the gun high and tight but, …. The elastic I have used is not a good quality so I abandoned the effort. I am thinking this girth strap is what I have been looking for

  15. Today was rather interesting try and follow along. I ramble we have an insurance card that gives us $75. We can use for food or utilities, they load it on t by e 1st of the month we went grocery shopping, we live rural so we only go 1 time a month we had 2 carts full of junk at the register and after it was wrung up. I used 2 crass to buy the bill first the insurance card. thh my en my debit card no problems, off we go to unload when we got home the wife reforms me that our bank shows we paid all of the bill and the insurance card was not applied quickncall to that cards number verified that yes it was used hummmm. Seems that t by e store owes me the $75 it collected twice phone calls made and facts are laid out we arbiter for 45 minutes store says no record of a card being used and the card co says, yes it was used at xxxx time and xxxx register after demanding supervisors they say they will reimberse i feel vindicated. Feeling good then wifey tells me thevreceipt she gave Me from the day before and the one she now has clearly shows the card transaction opps so now I have to call them back and say I was wrong do not reimburse vhess I am about to eat some crow

    Elastic

    Yuma, I am going to say to scrap the elastic idea. I have found over the years that elastic does not hold up. if you do not use your loops often then the loops last a long time but if you actually use the loops then the elastic will stretch out on you your rounds will drop out the bottom i propose you sew the elastic so the bullet pouch is a Z pattern with the small end on the bottom making it impossible for the bullet to “drop” out
  17. I am using the wrong pear Shader it looks like he is using the 209 and I am using the 206. Which is not as long take a look at f119
