Members LederRudi Posted July 14, 2017 Members Report Posted July 14, 2017 (edited) Once I bought a Cheyenne style Tandy kit. I hated the large lacing holes and the wide slits on the skirt. I only used the kit as a pattern and as such it is not bad at all. The skirt has the shape of an oval and the typical "Cheyenne-hump" sits between the loops. Both might improve the looks of your holster which, by the way, is nicely done. I just searched the Tandy website for said kit but they don't seem to sell it anymore. One more thing: I'd also move up the "Cheyenne-hump" a bit. Edited July 14, 2017 by LederRudi Quote "If you work for a living, why do you kill yourself working?" Tuco Ramírez
Members Clintock Posted July 14, 2017 Author Members Report Posted July 14, 2017 Appreciate the feedback. The 3 that went out was changed completely. Wasn't even the Mexican loop style so now I have a chance to try again with my pistol. Think I know the style you're talking about. Seen it on tales of Wells Fargo on the western channel yesterday. (Noticed I pay closer attention to those now). If you have a picture of the holster you mentioned I'd love to see it. Quote

Funnily enough, I've found I'm doing the same thing, always studying holsters and belts. Quote Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500.

I've given away a finished holster of the type in question without taking pictures. However I found an example surfing the web: https://www.etsy.com/listing/263101865/cheyenne-double-loop-holster-55 It seems that the maker used the Tandy-pattern. As I said: I like the oval roundness of the skirt and of the loops, but that's subject to personal preference of course. Quote "If you work for a living, why do you kill yourself working?"

Members Clintock Posted July 15, 2017 Author Members Report Posted July 15, 2017 Looks like they went with lacing as well. Mighty big holes just to stitch. Appreciate the pics. That's the style I thought you were referring to. Looks nice. Believe you're right about it being a Tandy pattern. May be the Tandy kit where it's already cut out. Kinda looks like it was stamped out or clicked or ?? Don't know the proper terminology. Quote
