Contributing Member SooperJake Posted September 16, 2013 Contributing Member Report Posted September 16, 2013 Awesome looking rig! How's you manage to get your belt stitches to run parallel hole for hole? Quote Once you know what the magician know.... it isn't magic anymore.
Members Eaglestroker Posted September 16, 2013 Author Members Report Posted September 16, 2013 Wow! That is plumb beautiful. Thank you! I like that stamping pattern Robert! It makes it look strong, like some sort of linked armour. Sort of a modern chain mail look. Paul Thanks Paul! It gives it a neat look, I'm glad I went with the smaller stamp. You're work is definitely some of the best out there man. Your stamping is awesome!!! I'd be insulting a lot of folks to take that compliment, but I appreciate the words none the less Looks awesome and love the double stitching! Thanks! Wow nice nice nice! Thank you! Quote
Members Eaglestroker Posted September 16, 2013 Author Members Report Posted September 16, 2013 It's gorgeous. Very nicely done. Thank you! Just great! Running out of appropriate superlatives! I like the tri-weave. Is it the Tandy stamp you used on this project? It is a Tandy stamp, does just fine though. If I had more requests I might get a nicer one. Very well done. It is a real pleasure to see a well executed piece like this. A very good job of matching the tri-weave stamp impressions to the border stamp line to produce a harmonious design that fits the size of the belt and the holster. This is a rig that screams " TOP QUALITY WORK " through and through! Thank you for the compliments! I'm not OCD about much, but any weave we do has to match angle wise from holster to belt. That sort of thing drives me absolutely crazy! Very elegant. I'm sure the client will be very happy tk Thank you! Awesome looking rig! How's you manage to get your belt stitches to run parallel hole for hole? More blind luck as it doesn't always work out, I mark my start holes so as long as the machine does its part we are close. I can thank Cobra Steve for that I guess? Quote
Members Jasonlboyd Posted September 16, 2013 Members Report Posted September 16, 2013 Love everything about it. I'm new to leather working so what finish did you use for this? Dye, hi light, and finish? I love that deep color Quote
Members Eaglestroker Posted September 16, 2013 Author Members Report Posted September 16, 2013 Love everything about it. I'm new to leather working so what finish did you use for this? Dye, hi light, and finish? I love that deep color The dye is Feibings Dk Brown, cut and applied until I get the shade I'm looking for. Takes a while but you get pretty good at forcing what your looking for most of the time. After dye I buff a ton, buff it some more, oil then a coat of resist, black antique in this case, buff some more then final finish. Biggest thing is patience! Quote
