Welcome to the forum!! You will probably love it here. Nice work that you have shown so far, although I'm far from being an authority on holsters, like Red Nichols, and some of the other guys like Crazyphil and Turnerriver. These guys know a lot about holsters and also have collected many thousands of dollars worth of the finest holsters.

One thing that I was curious about on the Tom Threepersons holster that you made for your dad.., does it have a welt? Red says (my interpretation) that the reason that the welt is important is to allow the holster to help retain the gun. See the photo in post 9 above. Unfortunately, this requires,sewing or lacing through multiple layers of leather.

Just a thought..... Anyway, welcome, and keep sharing your work with us!!

Best Regards, Les
