Since I asked I better post a pic.

I use the handles of the edge beveler & stitching wheel. Also use my hands.

What is the gold color rod next to the ruler?

knitting needle i think, maybe?

It's a crochet needle. I use them, too - great for making a straight line with a ruler.

This is my favorite, a variety of antlers in various shapes and sizes.Dave

I just use whatever smooth, rounded item is close at hand. Like JRB, I seem to end up using the handles of my edgers and stitching wheels a lot.

Same here. I also really like 1/4 drive deep well Craftsman sockets, chrome plated of course.

I've only made one holster, but these Corian tools I made seemed to work fine.
