Members katsass Posted October 19, 2012 Members Report Posted October 19, 2012 Just another comment from the grump: When drawing my patterns, I draw the outline of the gun then establish the cut line - -At the front of the trigger guard - - then the stitch line in the same location. From knowing the depth that the gun will be in the rig allows me to determine the location of the mouth of the holster and,in turn, the toe. I can then figure the cut and stitch lines around the entire shooter. It's just the way I do things, because, in my mind, the stitching at the front of the trigger guard is (arguably) the most important - most everything else is done in relation to that location.

Being old has an advantage.......nobody expects me to do anything in a hurry.
Members dickf Posted October 19, 2012 Members Report Posted October 19, 2012 I'd start with this edit to your pattern. Yes, you should do it again...and again...until it's right. No, you should not sell or attempt to sell things you know are sub-par and could be potentially dangerous to the end-user. If your standards are high, so will be the quality of your work. Good luck!
