If I do make it again, I am going to put the front panel [with the gusset slits] on the back also. I like the look and the extra room it affords Thank you, I have noticed that in this hobby you learn more than just leather. I can paint something besides a house now!!!!!

Used a pattern from DieselpunkRO I made a few changes, Moved the inside panel to the outside back, This give me a outer pouch added a pouch inside the bag with a zipper, [ I HATE zippers LOL]

Yeah, yours is different than mine, Mine also came from Tony . The way mine is built if you do the beak first you are painting yourself in the corner Get yours going. I would like to see it

NO, the difficult part was figuring out where to start and stop sewing. tip --work the beak from the small end to the large end

I like 5them both. but the first one is REALLY COOL!!!!

With every one wearing a mask because of the pandemic and Halloween getting close. I would think you guys would be making a mask for this year. What are you making? What cha got????

I have no idea what was bought. exactly. What did you order? Craftsman? B grade? economy?

4'' thick tombstone you can see upper left corner of the picture, it used to have a heart, someone broke the heart, stolen most likely. if you stop by your local monument maker, and look around the dumpster, you might fined a chunk like I found. I asked them if I could have the broken piece of Granite out by the dumpster and she said yes. 17x14x4 inches

I am pretty sure you guys already know about this, But in case you do not.

It is ALL GOOD, I have a very warped sense of humor and sometimes my kidding gets me into trouble because like you say, text is different than face to face

To be honest. The only reason i do not like it is because i cant afford it If i could afford one i would want a CnC machine and the software to run it

I mean no disrespect. I used the laughy thing [ ] in my answer. internet protocol is that by using a laughy thingy your post is non confrontational but it is a joke

Here is my soft wear and my hardware

I use 8 or 9 oz, and on some I double that It really just depends on the gun same with knives. I use a 8 or 9oz also. i hate a wimpy floppy sheath. you can use 2 8oz on the back side and a 6 on the front. There is no rule, you are the artist and the holster is your canvas

Here ya go.

Hey man. I restored an old family heirloom belt that a guys great grand daddy wore There was simply no restore to it What I did was glue the old belt to a new buffalo strip Then hand sewed the old through the old holes into the new leather. It took me about 12 hours of sewing to pull it off and it was tedious work BUT. the guy was happy as hell to be wearing Great Grand dads belt I under charged the guy. My bill was $100.00 cash

Look at this picture, Do you see the chrome plate above the bag?, that bolts through and sandwiches the the leather/pvc to the frame. What you need to do, is find out what frame/ make/model of the bike, and find the saddle bag mounting gear that comes with it or buy after market

2 ways of doing this my brother/ make a set of saddle bags that drap over the fender OR you need a plastic form to bolt to the bike and is covered with leather. It can be just the back pice not a whole box Then. You do not want to use bolts and washers you need a plate to hold the plastic to the frame
