kron Report post Posted December 2, 2012 Hello all. New member from Houston Texas area. Fell through a Google wormhole and found this treasure trove of information. Decided I needed to stick around and absorb as much information as possible. Googel search started when I bought a random, hand made holster for my new SAA 4 3/4" revolver. The holster that came in the mail was decent for the price as expected, but nowhere close to what I ultimately want to carry this piece in. A few searches later on leather, and tooling, and holster patterns, and whatever else... I ended up here. Looks like a nice place with lots of helpful, knowledgeable folk. Since then, I've picked up about a dozen LW books (mostly Stohlman), some leather, some tools, with more to come as gifts later this month... So spending time soaking it all in for now. Eventually, I'll be trying my hand at some holster, knife sheaths, and whatever else strikes my fancy. Already this site has helped me convince myself that I need an iPad cover, messenger bag, and a lot of free time to practice. Thanks! Kron Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
immiketoo Report post Posted December 2, 2012 Welcome Kron! Gunleather is how I started too. You should look at a book called Packing Iron. Great ideas for your SAA! and you have the right length too Anyway, welcome again and enjoy! Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kron Report post Posted December 2, 2012 Thanks! WIll check that book out. My downfall may end up being that I also found the SLC online store/wite. Already received their DVD catalog.... And I have a TLF about 1 mile from the house for when I can't wait for an online delivery at a good price... My wallet is in trouble. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
