Members Rohn Posted September 9, 2014 Members Report Posted September 9, 2014 I finally finished some projects with the MRB. I want to say thanks to Chief for the videos. They were a BIG help. I like the billfold done with this round raid but I don't prefer it for the holster. I think I'll do my holsters with the triple loop braid as it seems to lay better and flatter for the heavier holsters. The bill fold is a different story, I'll be using the round braid on all future billfolds and similar projects. This billfold is one of Tandy's kits. I did it for a customer and he did not want anything stamped or carved on it. Just plain black. So that is what I did. I much prefer to stamp or carve a design, but I must do what the customer wants.

Members WyomingSlick Posted September 9, 2014 Members Report Posted September 9, 2014 lol ! Now I had just the opposite reaction I like the looks of it on the holster better, but then; I am just judging by pictures By the way, damn fine looking holster ! Quote (John 8:32) And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. (KJV) And the truth is that religion is nothing more than the lame attempt by largely ignorant people to bring sense and order to a world that was beyond their comprehension. Once you see religion for the delusional and superstitious artifact it is............... you will be free !
Members Halitech Posted September 9, 2014 Members Report Posted September 9, 2014 Looking good Rohn The customer is always right, even when they are wrong Quote Every day you learn something is a good day. If you don't learn something every day, was it worth waking up for?
Chief31794 Posted September 9, 2014 Report Posted September 9, 2014 They both look great Rohn, excellent job. I really like it on wallets, one thing is that it looks as good on the inside as it does on the outside, that really sets it off on a wallet. I haven't laced any holsters, I sew them, but I think yours look great regardless of which stitch you use. Chief Quote "Life's too short to carry ugly leather"
Members Rohn Posted September 9, 2014 Author Members Report Posted September 9, 2014 Halitech, Thanks for the kind words. Chief, I do a lot of holsters and not very many wallets. I am going to make myself a new wallet as soon as I get the time. I was actually going to use the kit shown here for myself when I got a request from a customer for a wallet so I used it for the customer. I think I'm going to do mine by cutting all the parts out myself instead of using a kit. The billfold I now have I made over thirty years ago and while it is looks very well worn it is still useable. I think I need a new one and I'll be using the Mexican Round Braid on it. Quote Rohn(John 8:32) And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. (KJV)
Members MonicaJacobson Posted September 9, 2014 Members Report Posted September 9, 2014 I actually agree with Wyoming Slick (though I'm no expert on holsters). I really like how it looks. Quote http://monicajacobson.com/ https://www.etsy.com/shop/TrimGoTrix?ref=si_shop
