If you don't have the US stamp, here is a link to one I have purchased and had great success, should you need one. No affiliation. https://www.shop.bunkhousetools.com/US-P0422a.htm?categoryId=-1

Welcome to the forum. I am not sure of any books per se, but know that for particular elements / products there are a number of YouTube videos on the subject. Weaver Leather does a great job on certain things, Don Gonzalez has great instructional videos on how to draw floral designs, Joe Meling has some great videos too. There are also several for how to create patterns for holsters, knife sheaths, etc. What type of patterns and designs would you like to create??

nice detail work. very sharp!!

Looks like an advertisement for some link. If it is for writing essays, might get a better salesperson.

What rifle is the scabbard for. Nice work!!

Have you reached out to Tandy Leather? They may do it for you. There are two in ATL metro.

Love that outside skin. That's beautiful.

Let me know if you want a pattern. These are fitted to the Ozark Trail 20 oz. tumblers sold by WM. I sell the tumblers with the wrap.

I am not affiliated, but saw a USM Hydraulic clicker on FB marketplace for $2000. It is in Marlow OK for anyone interested.

those look awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Can't wait to see pics. What was the purpose of the RFID protection for a holster?

I know its an old thread. As I read through it, it made me laugh at times, and even wince a few. Can anyone tell me the type of material Bob's tools are made from? Stainless, High Carbon? Thanks a bunch!

That's a good idea. I lace them before placing on tumbler so it is a press fit. They don't go anywhere.

I like that stitch. What thickness of thread are you using? Thanks Chuck! Have sold some and given some away. These shown are on my Etsy store.

Those look really nice and would be relished by anyone in archery. You're not too far from me either. I reside in Carthage MO. Just a couple hours away. May have to meet up at SLC sometime.

Thanks! I just use a simple lacing to close the back. Would like to see yours if it is different.

Saw some on Etsy the other day and thought I would take a crack at it. More tooling and stamping...no stitching. This one has an arrowhead concho attached.

I had a gentlemen from Colorado ask me to make him a holster for this Canik suppressor ready pistol. He was pleased with the end results.

When I first started in leather, I had a long distance mentor who suggested I practice my carving and stamping on tumbler wraps. To this day, I still like to make these. Here are a few I have made recently. File size limits....here are a couple more

at one time, i had access to the glow forge and was able to download free images from the web. Don Gonzalez has several free patterns on his site as does Jim Linnell. Not sure what their thoughts are on selling the items though.

Looking good. Is that .6mm thread?

WOW! stunning. Love Damascus. Nice quality work. How long did it take you to create? Were you going to add any knurling?

One could always use the old doctor's bag pattern. That is plenty roomy for the tools you mentioned.

Very nice indeed. Love the nice straight lines of the basket weave.
