I never double stitch a holster.  Aint needed at all, and the more holes ya put in sumthin', the weaker it is.  Some a@@ will be along in a minute to swear that aint true, but ...

consider a diving board.  You feel safe walking out on the end, that's what it's made for.  Now drill holes across the board, a couple feet from the end, and THEN walk out and stand there. Not so fun now, eh?  BUT some holes (double row) running DOWN the board along the edges (like a fella might see on the edges of a belt) don't significantly damage the board in the direction of the downward force.  Still fine to walk on out.  

I think Stohlman said it like "don't stitch across a strap" or something like that, right?

@JLSleather Thank you Sir. I have a great tendency to over complicate things. That is so simple I just could not wrap my mind around it. Thank you for all your time.

Welcome - glad I could help.  MUCH of leather work is quite easy ... don't believe them "fancy' folks who spend their time trying to tell you they are somehow "special" and doing something you can't do.  Folks with a physical limitation is valid -- arthritis, limited mobility, etc - but the rest of us can just have at 'er ;)

154,731 FREE pattern downloads, causing what my site host calls "performance issues" :rofl:  This of course is just the holster patterns, not including the other info available.

The current "download winner" .. most popular AGAIN --- GLOCK 19 pancake style holster pattern (7666 downloads).  

ALL of these designed, edited and uploaded on ** my own time on my own tools -- no employer billed and paying for time spent on my stuff.  Dad always said 'pull your own weight'...

** DISCLAIMER:  NO employers were harmed in the making of these patterns or the site which contains them.

Toe2short, download JLS holster making instructions, then just pretend your pin pointer is a handgun. The process is exactly the same.

New download, which is really a new old stuff download.  1911 DOUBLE MAG carrier, just a slight revision from the single, one most you boys dun likely already dun.  Now, lemme say I don't so much care for these due to the amount of belt space they live on.  Still, the price is good (the download is free) ...

Thanks again for the patterns. It’s really nice to have one that you know will fit to help you when you try to draw one on your own.
