OK lets no go ballistic. I know this a is a gun LEATHER kinda place.

I have a really nice IWB hybrid holster (ComTac) (kinda like CrossBreed) that has a leather backing and uses kydex shells for the gun. It is is very well made, The shells just screw on .

I do not want to buy all the shells as I am not real sure what gun I want to carry (IWB) I am more of a pocket or outside the waistband with a long shirt.

I would like to try and make some shells for different guns (they sell them for around $26.00 each)

I did some research, watched videos etc and seems like I can give it a try. I have a old toaster oven and can make a press.

I have all kinds of tools for trimming, cutting, buffing etc.

I will need a good infrared thermometer to check the kydex temp and some of the foam for the press. Heck, if I screw up I can reheat it,and try again.

Where is a good source for the kydex and what thickness is recommended? Also, if you have any good links that would help. Some of the ones I watched well, they were kinda Bubba'ish!.

Thanks and Happy New Year!
