Members CaptQuirk Posted October 2, 2016 Members Report Posted October 2, 2016 I'll likely be doing an Uberti 45LC next week. What pistol do you have there, and is it what you used as a holster mold? Quote
Members BHPshooter Posted October 3, 2016 Members Report Posted October 3, 2016 Holy crap, Josh! You are absolutely knocking them out of the park. Top-notch work. Quote
Members Josh Ashman Posted October 3, 2016 Author Members Report Posted October 3, 2016 Thanks gents, I appreciate the kind comments! TSes, I lightly scribe a guideline for the outside line of my bead with a set of dividers using the outside of the piece as a guide then I cut it with a swivel knife. I use that cut as a guide for the next line in and scribe it with my dividers and cut and repeat until they are all cut. Then I use one of the white nylon bevelers that go in a swivel knife handle. I bought a ceramic bead blade for a swivel knife and couldn't get good results with it so I just started hand cutting and beveling them. Skipper, The pistol in the pic is an Uberti. It is some sort of an NRA commemorative something or another, which is why it has the NRA on the grips. And I did use it to make the pattern. Good luck on yours! Have a great day folks! Quote

Members carguy4471 Posted February 7, 2017 Members Report Posted February 7, 2017 Here's a bit that's always amazed me. I don't find ornate leather tooling to be my style, but I still find it amazingly artful and beautiful. That really is a piece of art. I think I spent 10 minutes looking at those photos. Fantastic work!! Quote
Members Dwight Posted February 7, 2017 Members Report Posted February 7, 2017 Beautiful work, Josh, . . . several steps above my carving & decorating. Always enjoy beautiful work.
