CJW306 Report post Posted April 19, 2016 If I was making something similar to this holder with 3-4oz leather, does anyone know what sort of length difference would be required between front and back? I assume that the back needs to be longer than the front, but I wonder if there is an aprox length difference for a rule of thumb or calculation based on leather thickness? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
