Members bussted2 Posted July 16, 2020 Members Report Posted July 16, 2020 A new customer came in today. He wants something I have never tried. It is a molded holster for his Ruger 100 this thing is double action with a large frame. I am going to use 10oz. vegetable tan with a natural finish. What is the correct method of wet forming this project?? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. My email is in my profile. Quote
Members Dwight Posted July 16, 2020 Members Report Posted July 16, 2020 A lot of the answer will be determined by the type of holster he wants. If for example he wants a flap over holster . . . similar to the old cavalry holsters of 150 years ago . . . the molding will be VERY minimal. If he wants a "wrap around" holster similar to what John Wayne wore in his westerns . . . you do a bit more molding. If he wants a pancake holster with lots of "grab" and no suicide strap or thumb break . . . you will do a lot of molding. Let us know which type holster . . . we can go from there with much better and more detailed information. May God bless, Dwight Quote
