Members Tango99 Posted March 11, 2023 Members Report Posted March 11, 2023 To all I am trying to build a replica m1916 leather holster. I was able to get all the leather pieces from an old company that made it except the solid piece inside the holster. Does anyone know the dimensions of that piece and what it was made of originally? any assistance would be appreciated Quote

Nice stuff, but how would a person go about printing them to be a usable pattern? Looks like they're enormous.
