dfd Report post Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) I would like to make a small stiff case with a flap to hang on my belt to hold .22 caliber bullets.I have Al Stohlman's "Making Leather Cases" but not sure if this is what I'm looking for.Are the wood forms the best way to go?

Tinneal Report post Posted April 30, 2012 I've made a few of the ammo cases in those books. Wood forms are definitely the way to go! And make sure to screw a metal loop into them to aid in pulling them out after everything's been all sewn up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glendon Report post Posted April 30, 2012 Looking more for something with separate attached sides or gusset. Then I would use the playing card case pattern, but use a box of the right size as your form. Maybe the cartridge case on page 27 is more what you want. If you don't want to mess with wood forms, another option might be HDPE plastic. Depends on what is easier for you to get hold of. I use the plastic because I live in a city with a local plastics supplier comfortable working with poor artists on small projects, and there are few lumber yards. If the wood forms are easier fir you to source, that's what I'd use. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
