Members usmc0341 Posted April 16, 2009 Members Report Posted April 16, 2009 I'd like to see the back of the first holster if you don't mind, and very nice work, I'm guessing you're not new to this Quote
Members Rock76 Posted April 16, 2009 Author Members Report Posted April 16, 2009 Thanks for the compliments and encouragement guys. I'll definitely be here awhile. I'd like to see the back of the first holster if you don't mind, and very nice work, I'm guessing you're not new to this No, not exactly new to it, but I learn something new with every project. Quote

Members usmc0341 Posted April 17, 2009 Members Report Posted April 17, 2009 Thanks for the picture of the back, you do very nice work. I'm guessing that you machine stitch? Quote
Members JRB Posted April 17, 2009 Members Report Posted April 17, 2009 Very nice all the way around (design, molding, etc.). Surely this isn't your 1st leatherworking?!? Quote ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ
Members Rock76 Posted April 17, 2009 Author Members Report Posted April 17, 2009 Thanks for the picture of the back, you do very nice work. I'm guessing that you machine stitch? No, I haven't gotten into stitching machines yet. Still doing it the slow way (awl and a couple of needles). I would like to get a machine in the future, but for now I don't mind hand stitching. It's kinda relaxing for me. Very nice all the way around (design, molding, etc.). Surely this isn't your 1st leatherworking?!? No, it's not my first piece. I've been working with leather for awhile. I used to build pieces for Japanese Katana; primarily scabbards (saya). I was making the handle for one particular sword and wanted to learn how to do the stingray skin wrapping, so I stopped into a local leather shop for some advice and have been hooked since Quote
Members usmc0341 Posted April 17, 2009 Members Report Posted April 17, 2009 Man, I would have bet that was machine stitched, your stitching looks great. My stitches have come a long way, but I still have a ways to go Quote
