First Holster

[IanCantwell]

Thought I'd have a bash at carving and decided on a holster. Used an F.O. Baird pattern, struggled with the cartridge belt part and might have to rework as the sewing isn't holding the shells tight enough, might try the loops through a slot method.

Isn't it difficult to take clear photos of leather stained black?

Your critique please.

That is pretty nice. Did you dye it your self or get that predyed black leather.

Thanks. Dyed it myself. Usually use Fieblings but didn't have any black so bought a small bottle of spirit shoe dye from the local cobblers.

Experimenting at the minute with 'vinegaroon' to see how it works with smooth, tooled and carved leather for my next project.
