Members katsass Posted October 28, 2013 Members Report Posted October 28, 2013 (edited) Glockanator -- Just so you understand my earlier statement about GT being nasty uh..... stuff. I bought one bottle of the uh,,,,, stuff ten or more years ago. After playing with it full strength, diluted, warm, cold etc. , and ruining a pot-load of good scrap leather, I took that bottle and threw it as far as I could out into the middle of Mojave Desert. May it be discovered in 10,000 years and befuddle whatever creature lives on this ball of mud at that time. JMHO.

At my age I find that I can live without sex..........but not without my glasses. Being old has an advantage.......nobody expects me to do anything in a hurry.

These pics may show the amount of stitching required, it takes a while.

Members malabar Posted October 28, 2013 Members Report Posted October 28, 2013 I treat the inside of all of my unlined holsters with Fiebings Aussie Leather Conditioner. It's a non-penetrating, beeswax-based product that seal and smooths the fleshy side of the leather and creates a kinder surface. Simple and easy to apply -- smear it on, rub it in a bit, you're done with it. Quote
Members usmc0341 Posted October 29, 2013 Members Report Posted October 29, 2013 Thank you sir. I figured you would have to stitch everywhere, but I was reading it wrong. Quote

Members katsass Posted November 2, 2013 Members Report Posted November 2, 2013 SouthernCross: Yes, I hand stitch all of my work. I was taught to stitch by a WWI cavalry soldier waaay back when I was about 17 yrs. old. That was one OLD man. Don't figure on even trying a machine, I just don't like the way the stitching appears. Thanks for the compliment. Mike Quote NOTE TO SELF: Never try to hold a cat and an operating Dust buster at the same time!!
