Members tanglang69 Posted February 26, 2014 Members Report Posted February 26, 2014 I have been working with leather a little over two years now. I have been making holsters for about a year now. Here are some of the holsters I have made. Here are a few more. Quote
Members marine mp Posted February 27, 2014 Members Report Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) Tanglang69, most excellent work for a fairly new leatherman. No doubt. A few words of constructive criticism, If I may be so bold.....stitchline looks to be a tad bit to close to the borders, need to pay a little more attention to finishing the edges and for myself, I particularly like to see more rounded than squared off corners. They tend to be more forgiving. All in all, nice stuff. Take care. Semper-fi Mike Edited February 27, 2014 by marine mp Quote
Members tanglang69 Posted March 1, 2014 Author Members Report Posted March 1, 2014 Thank you and thanks for the critique. Since I am new to this and I am teaching myself from either youtube or other sources on the internet, I am always open to constructive criticism. Again thanks. Oved Zamora Quote
Members tanglang69 Posted March 1, 2014 Author Members Report Posted March 1, 2014 By the way Mike, how far should the stitch line be from the edge? Oved Quote
Members marine mp Posted March 3, 2014 Members Report Posted March 3, 2014 Oved...I go at least 1/8" from the edge. I do all hand stitching and have never had a stitch pull out because I leave enough space between the stitchline and the edge. Hope that helps. Semper-fi Mike Quote
