Members Bruno Rock Posted January 14, 2015 Author Members Report Posted January 14, 2015 LederRudi, I've wet the leather with a sponge and I've just stamped on it, and the stamping was coming out all right, I didn't purchase that hide from Zack White leather, I've bought it from and old man near my town. You have to ask those questions about dying and tooling, to other guys from this forum with more experience than me, I'm sure they will give you, the right answer and advise about it. Nice avatar! I use the same one on another forum! Quote Bruno Migliorini's Leather Works on Facebook Bruno Migliorini's Leather Works on Instagram

Members bagga Posted January 15, 2015 Members Report Posted January 15, 2015 the first thing i thought was "i like the angle of the basket weave" it's something like i never saw before. that's what art is all about, doing something different. Quote

Members Bruno Rock Posted January 17, 2015 Author Members Report Posted January 17, 2015 thanks Samalan for your nice comment, There's no toe plug, I've skipped that part, I'm about to complete this toe plug tester, as Jim Simmons suggested, as soon I'll be happy on my toe plug tester, I'll starting making holsters with it!

Members Jim Posted January 18, 2015 Members Report Posted January 18, 2015 WOW! Just . . . . WOW! By golly this has inspired me to hand out the Tooling Patterns I created for this holster. These are based on designs used in the 1800s for holsters in photos that I have seen in Packing Iron and other sources. Good work Bruno!
