@ThisIsMyFirstRodeo BLESSING GIVEN !!!!!!!!!! Take it and run with it however you want -
Not knowing what cuts of the hide you are using , import bellies 10/ 11 oz are fairly cheap and should hold up better than going thinner . Just a thought , as it seems you are about function and not something to tool or to visually impress . https://www.springfieldleather.com/Import-Bellies?quantity=1&leather-thickness=12

@Lazybearmetal After looking at you stuff I realized that a full blood knot might not be useful for the small things like your heart Montana state item . 1/2 of the same knot might work if you like the way it looks . NICE ARTWORKS !!!!!!!!!!! 3/16 inch hole 3/8 inch split

Blood knot is secure an looks nice I think .

@Fraulein This might help.... might at least give you some ideas if you are dealing with a flat handle . you might just want to do it on a small piece and treat it like a luggage tag ?

This is a WAG but I would talk to my jeweler and see if he could saw the marble in half ( so there is a flat side) . Then something like this might could be made to work. Good Luck !!!!!!

Any idea on how to make one of these?
Gezzer replied to MasonLikesLeather's topic in How Do I Do That?
Most things I do start with a card stock pattern , once you like that then transfer that to your leather and start cutting Don't be afraid of wasting a little leather , I think most here di that starting out . -
Like Chuck said those are squares . This is how I do diamonds . I too think a V-gouge was used

Young folks next door have a Boxer/Pit mix , great dog . They have been a big help to me so I decided to make a collar for Toby ( their dog ) as a little thank you . 8 oz veg tan , diluted saddle tan , dark brown antique ( no resist ) acrylic top coat

Weight of leather will have some effect , 6/7 oz I lose right at 5/8 inch per foot . Best way to know is cut a sample @ known length ( say 9 inches )and braid it then measure to see what you are loosing . Overall length will be shorter by X amount , now just do the math for the you want .

@Bert03241 if you have $40.00 more to spend , buy one of their holsters and use it for a pattern . https://byrna.com/products/byrna-nylon-holster?variant=31820201033795

This is for a great young lady who is a nurse and actually understands what that encompasses . She took care of my brother back in Dec. , during which time I found out she hunts and is planning her first elk hunt for this fall . I thought this would make a little Thank You for the care she gives each and every day !!

I just take my mop&glow to my leather shop and have the guy keep it in the back for me . He will pour it into smaller bottles and add a buck an ounce when I come in for supplies , just makes me feel better about the whole thing .........................
