Just finishing this up. I don't see the practicality in it but the customer said " its for my zombie gun"

I suggested going with a tie down but he wants it the way it is. It actually is not as bad to walk around with as one would think.

Fortunately he won't need to do much running. With zombies, a fast walk should suffice. Now, did you do the good salesman thing, and suggest a bandolier for all of the shells he'll need? :)

Aghh.. so the customer decided he wanted to have a black rig. The problem is that I have already finished the edges ( wax). If I dye it black as is what will happen to the edges?

Not sure. But I think any contrast may look ok. Try thinning the dye and see if you can get a grey color?

That sure is different. You could do the vinegaroon. I think it would soak in from the inside. I am not saying this from experience, just a hypothesis from my playing with it.

It is cool though.

vinagroon will work, but i think i would lightly sand the edges again then re dye it...try angulus spirit dyes cut 5 to 1 with denatured alchohol.

Unless you "really" got heavy on the wax, . . . black should work anyway, . . . at least that has been my experience.

If you have light areas, . . . a light sanding with fine sandpaper stapled to a board is what I would use, . . .

I have to admit, when I saw the title, I had to come over here and take a look, . . . I had visions of this great big hunk cut out of a full side of leather.

Good job, . . . although I personally see no practicality to it, . . . but so much of the leather trade is just that, . . . things people want, . . . not necessary to their lives, . . . but "feel good" items.

May God bless,

Dwight

Thanks everyone for the advice. Dwight that's what I was afraid if as well. I took inspiration from race gun holsters
