Hi everyone. I became interested in leather working because I could not find a holster I liked. I saw a bunch of custom work online and said heck, I can work on just about anything. Why not cow hide? My wife got me a few starter kits from Tandy Christmas of 2017 and I finally found the hobby I had searched for my whole life! Now I find myself at the shooting range a lot less and at my desk playing with my leather all the time. Glad I found where everyone hangs out.

Your story sounds familiar! But, when I am at the shooting range, people ask about my fine holsters and gun belts!

Where are you located?

Hopefully I can irritate you into learning even more ;)  To begin the irritation, check out and download some [free] holster patterns and PUH LEEZE alter them so they're more betterer. :o

Instead of dumpin ammo at the range, you can dump your BUSINESS CARDS ;)

I'm not far from Baton Rouge. Funny you should mention free holster patterns. You may recognize this one :Psignal-2018-12-27-064803.thumb.jpg.057d094ec9310ccb50f165728438983c.jpg

I combined two different patterns on that one. I liked the cleaner look of the one without the stitching around the top and the rear belt loop. It's for a good friend who is going to wear it probably every blue moon or so. It was a rush job for a gift that I finished on Christmas day haha. I like the 1911 holster I made for another friend even better. For some reason I forgot to take pics after I slicked the edges and added the snaps.

Haha! I think we're using the same patterns! (I did without the snap)

Great work!
