CFM chuck123wapati Posted February 25, 2022 CFM Report Posted February 25, 2022 awesome tooling there, i like the absract pattern very unique.

Contributing Member Samalan Posted February 25, 2022 Contributing Member Report Posted February 25, 2022 Unique nice work, I'm not sure if I'm a fan of the no border look, to me it makes it looks like it was cut from a larger piece of work that was used for something else. But that's just what I see. But then it is a very cool looking piece of work also the fact that the back is done is very nice no one ever dose that . Quote
Members AzShooter Posted February 25, 2022 Members Report Posted February 25, 2022 Great depth and detail. Looks good but I'd like to have seen a outline all across the holster. Loved the way you matched the belt loop with the main body. I'm impressed. Quote
Members Hags Posted February 27, 2022 Members Report Posted February 27, 2022 Very different Frodo. I'm a big fan of tooling. Outside the box! Quote Not so retired RN. Living on the Washington Peninsula.

You are correct, It was a check book cover in its other life. A cover that did not sell, SO... repurpose it. And it is now sold To a guy with initials BH Here is another that did not sell as a ck book cover but is already sold as a holster Quote Singer 66, Chi Chi Patcher, Rex 26-188, singer 29k62 , 2-needles
Contributing Member fredk Posted February 27, 2022 Contributing Member Report Posted February 27, 2022 Nice re-purposing there But I gotta ask, what size are US check books?!? Cheque books here are only about 2.5 inches high by 7 inches long, so covers ain't that big Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..
