Members rustyriggin Posted November 4, 2010 Members Report Posted November 4, 2010 I need about a dozen Steel Thumb Break Stiffeners, all the places I find are minimum of 1000, and I'm sure I won't need that many in my life. Does anyone know where to get just 12 or so?? I'm not that picky as to what size, I haven't even designed the holster yet, so I can work around it. Thanks in advance.

Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted November 4, 2010 Contributing Member Report Posted November 4, 2010 If you don't mind working w/ kydex, you can get a sheet of .06 from Springfield for CHEAP. It's a square foot, and should provide you with at least 100. I make mine out of kydex and haven't had any problems with them.

Members NoahL Posted November 4, 2010 Members Report Posted November 4, 2010 Give Marianne at JRM Clips a call: http://www.jrmclips.com/ Don't use the e-mail form, it doesn't seem to work properly, just give them a call. I know the site has a minimum order listed but they let me get 10 thumb break stiffeners and 10 belt clips, so you should be fine Quote Website: Wasteland Leatherwork Collaboration Projects: The Wasteland Crow Project

I had thought about that, think I'll give it a try, I have to go to Springfield tomorrow anyway, Thanks Quote "A horse is someone who can see the truth in you even when you are fooling everyone else."

Members joe59 Posted November 6, 2010 Members Report Posted November 6, 2010 Rusty, I cut my own from old hack saw blades. You can narrow them and take the teeth off with a sanding drum or grinding wheel. You can also make them as long as you need them. Hope this helps. JOE Quote
Members SLP Posted March 19, 2016 Members Report Posted March 19, 2016 I just received 100 from jrm products. I called and spoke with Mariane. She was more than happy to let me order a small order of 100. That's way more than I needed, but at $0.15 a piece, it is well worth it. They have several options to choose from. After shipping it was $19. http://www.jrmclips.com/thumb-break-stiffeners.html Quote
