We needed something to be a show piece for our stall - so Pete asked me what he should make? As he used to run a Country and Western shop and used to make gun rigs I suggested he make one. He didn't take much pursuading as he had been itching to make one for a bit. :D He also chose to do it in a Sheridan Style. The design itself took a couple of days to organise and trace out on paper before it even met leather. That in its self was not a simple thing - a work of patience - which I am very glad he has in abundance - because I think the finished article is rather nice. :) The holsters have been molded around Peacemakers. It does get alot of comments from people - even if sometimes they are not sure what they are looking at - I have had a couple of smart arses even laugh and point at it and say that it is a chastity belt. In a way - yes it is! *grin*

Are you kidding me??? That has to be the most AWESOME rig I have ever seen. Looks like it should go to a Museum of Leather MasterCraft. I'll be staring at this one for a very long time. Thank you for sharing it with us.

That is a very impressive rig. Ugly as hell, imo, but very impressive! (Guaranteed to get attention).

I agree.

I wouldn't even dream of accomplishing something comparable, but ... isn't the sequence of the Sheridan circles somewhat unbalanced?

Very impressive! Wow! That is the work of a true leather artist.

I am humbled at this type of work. I make simple book covers, journals, wallets...from Utility oil hides, latigo and vegtan... no real tooling on my work.

I recently bought some tooling tools and picked up some second hand tools through a friend. Someday I hope to be able to pull off something like that.

Its not really my style, but I still want to be able to do the work! :-)

All the superlatives have already been used, so I'll just add my congrats on nice work. It reminds me of a song, my dad used to sing, "pistol totin' mama lay that pistol down". :rofl: Again, nice work.

The work is awesome even if it's not to my particular liking. I'm much more of a simple guy, that rig is a bit over the top for me. I can appreciate the work and the number of hours involved in making it though, it's an incredible amount of work. Very nice work.
