mliebs8 Report post Posted February 3, 2008 Here's a couple of pictures of two holsters I just finished. I'm really looking forward to the drum dyed leather to get here so I can see how they look dyed. This weekend I was bored so I just finished moulding 7 more so I can finish them up during the week. <center> <img src="http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k56/mliebs8/DSCN2024.jpg" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"><br><br> <img src="http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k56/mliebs8/DSCN2023.jpg" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"><br><br> </center> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Randyc Report post Posted February 3, 2008 Your holster are sure looking good to me. Right now I'm building another IWB holster for a Makarov. This one I might have run my stitch line a little to close to the trigger guard. The pistol fits a little too tight. It may end up in the mistake box. I look foward to hearing your feedback on the drum died leather you bought. Are you molding by hand or using a press? Randy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you molding by hand or using a press?Randy I'm using a press, I bought a 20 ton press from Northern Tool and had some plates made for it. I also bought some of the gum rubber sheets from McMasters, I'm using two on top and two on the bottom. I know what you mean about sewing, I had one yesterday that I hit the gas pedal by mistake. I'm just glad I didn't sew my fingers to the holster. I'm really excited about getting the new leather, I'm only going black for now but I have some color samples coming with it so I'm sure I'll end up with 2 or 3 colors. After my sewing mishap yesterday I started using the machine without shoes so I can get a better feel for the pedals because their so close together. I've had a couple that I sewed too close to the trigger, one worked but the other ended up going to the landfill.
