shooter saddlebag

[WyattEarp]

hello everyone,
I made this shooter saddle bag. It take me 36 hours of carving and 6 hours of handstiching. It was fun to achive this projet.

That is some gorgeous work!  I'd say you knocked that out of the ballpark.  Great staging for your photos, too!

Outstanding!

WOW!!!

Gorgeous work all around.  Beautiful carving, nice and deep. It will look that good for a lifetime.

Usually holsters don't do much for me but that got my attention. A lot of thought went into that and I like the angle of the holster so nothing interferes with the flap. Very well done Jesse.

Beautiful!

Great work, would love to take my gear that down to the range in a bag like that.

I like the diamond border, is that carved or stamped?

[TexasJack]

Wow!  Very nice!

 

[RevMoore]

Clean as it gets.. I am also interested if the diamond border was carved or stamped.

That's a great job building Will Ghormley's pattern and outstanding update to the tooling design! Great work Jesse! I built this same pattern a while back and just used the tooling patterns supplied. Your design is much nicer!

All the best, Josh

[WyattEarp]

Thank You for your kind words. The diamond border was stamped.

Josh, yours is beautiful, I love it

Thanks,

Thank you Sir!

Thanks Wyatt Earp. I am going through my stamps to see if I have anything similar.

Very beautiful work boy Wyatt and Josh. 

What pattern pack is that from? How is the holster attached?

Wyatt. very nice job... great tooling on that project! How long have you been tooling (5 years), as from the looks of it, I would say a very long time. 

JW, you can find that pattern pack here. Single strap version, not double strap:

Thank you,

Yes, the pattern come from the Will Ghormley pack. Here is a picture how the holster is attached to the front of the saddlebag.

RemingtonSteel, I started leathertooling about 4 years ago, but I still have a lot to learn. Fortunately my friend Mich 'from France who is also on this forum helps me a lot to progress.

Thanks. I have many of his patterns but never tried out the saddlebag patterns.
