Members Cyberthrasher Posted March 13, 2013 Members Report Posted March 13, 2013 I think you're right on track. At 5.00 per kit I could put them together in no time at all and actually be able to make some money on them. If I were to make the patterns and cut them out myself the price would be double for the end customer. These would be nice little impulse items to keep at the counter because I'm busy enough with holsters that I really don't have much time to invest in doing things like this unless they are quick and easy. For the full out custom items i choose to make my own patterns but not everyone can afford those things so this would be an affordable solution to those people which broadens my customer base. I'd much prefer quality leather over instructions. Let me know when/if you start selling them. That's pretty much what I'm thinking there. I try to focus so much more on custom work that I haven't gotten anything up in any online store. If these were quality kits that I could whip up, it would give me a less expensive alternative to offer people who can't afford my full on work and get me some quick "stock" to post for sale as bread and butter.

Members Averya Posted March 13, 2013 Members Report Posted March 13, 2013 I'd be interested in these. Please let me know if you begin to produce them. Quote
Members J Allen Posted March 14, 2013 Author Members Report Posted March 14, 2013 (edited) I have decided to not offer these in kit form. Instead I am going to sell the dies. To those who responded and to those who showed interest, thank you for your input and insight. J. Edited March 14, 2013 by J Allen Quote
