Members dickf Posted November 27, 2011 Members Report Posted November 27, 2011 Pancake for a Govt 1911 black on black Same pattern in brown with black thread Pancake for a G19 I find the Glocks especially challenging and it has taken several tries to get the stitch line in close.

Members Haystacker Posted November 27, 2011 Members Report Posted November 27, 2011 Stunning. some of the best detail work I've seen. Quote haysholsters@hotmail.com NRA Life Member
Members Eaglestroker Posted November 28, 2011 Members Report Posted November 28, 2011 I would like to know what the color is on that last piece. That combination with white thread and black edges looks perfect to me. How you dye the belt slots without ruining the holster is beyond me Truly exceptional design, work, and fit/finish. Quote
Members dickf Posted November 28, 2011 Author Members Report Posted November 28, 2011 Thank you for the kind words. I try hard, and am reasonably pleased with my results...most of the time. I think a press is on my short list. Any suggestions? @Eaglstroker - The color is the same in the 2nd and 3rd photo, believe it or not. It's all lighting - the Glock was shot sitting in the kitchen sink! The true color is between the top and the bottom. It's drum dyed chestnut brown.

Vacuum press with a poly bag and bone your details right through the bag. Quote
Members K-Man Posted November 28, 2011 Members Report Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) Great work. You're always welcome to run down here for a visit. We'll be here until Christmas. I can show you my press/clicker set up. Very efficient and takes up very little bench top space. Edited November 28, 2011 by K-Man Quote
MADMAX22 Posted November 29, 2011 Report Posted November 29, 2011 Very clean looking stuff. Great work. Had a questions, what size needle and what machine are you using. Your stitching looks really good and the back stitching part looks really good to. I seem to keep goofing that part up, it doesnt turn out to bad but not quiet as neat as yours. Quote
