Members katsass Posted November 20, 2010 Members Report Posted November 20, 2010 During the summer I mixed up a batch of vinegaroon. When done, I tried it out on a number of pieces of scrap and it worked well. It's getting a bit cooler now and things have slowed down so I dug this old Beretta 'Brigadier' out of the safe and quickly tossed together this holster just to see how the stuff worked on a complete project. Seems to have come out OK. Mike Quote NOTE TO SELF: Never try to hold a cat and an operating Dust buster at the same time!!

Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted November 20, 2010 Contributing Member Report Posted November 20, 2010 Looks good, Mike. I think you'll find that as your batch ages, it will lose a lot of its odor. Quote Mike DeLoach Esse Quam Videri (Be rather than Seem) "Don't learn the tricks of the trade.....Learn the trade."

Thanks, It was pretty strong in the odor dept. The finished holster wasn't too bad after I rinsed it in soda water then clear water and forced dryied it. When dry I oiled it and shot it with a couple of shots of Fiebing's Leather sheen. Doesn't have much odor now. The leather variations show more than I realized that they would show though. I don't do much work in black. Mike Edited November 20, 2010 by katsass Quote NOTE TO SELF: Never try to hold a cat and an operating Dust buster at the same time!!
