Nice! How is horsehide to work with compared to veg tan?

Sure, what would you like to know?

Thanks for the kind works guys. Yes I did. It takes a bit more time but I think it does a much better job. I'm working on a strong side IWB tuckable right now. I'll post pictures when it's done.

Here's a couple that I've made. Crossdraw tuckable IWB or OWB strong side. If you remove the straps it can be used as OWB.

I just bought a Lee Classic Turret also, but haven't recieved it yet. Check this guy out. He has a 4 part series that's the best I've seen for the LCT. YouTube - Lee Classic Turret Press - Part 1 - Introduction

Just a suggestion, before you invest in wood or plastic grips you may want to try out a pair before you buy. I have rubber Uncle Mikes on my J's and really liked the way they fit my hand and I can hit with them too! Like you, I didn't care for the way they grab your shirt so I bought a pair of...

A group of 4 of us drove up to Lakeland for the show. I found most of the vendors had the prices SKY HIGH and were rude and insulted when you made a reasonable offer. I offered a guy $200.00 for a 10/22 that was priced $209.00. The guy turned his head away and said in a snotty voice "Nope". Wow...

I'm looking for a pair of Uncle Mike's 59007 grips. Anyone have a pair they would like to sell? Thanks, Dan.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

I'm thinking of getting an i-pod to listen to while driving. My truck does not have a place to plug an i-pod into, but I know there are devices that allow the i-pod to send an fm signal to my existing radio. Keeping in mind I don't want to break the bank, yet still have something that is user...

Strapped In! Getting HARD on the brakes going into turn 7 at Sebring...nothing like it unless its turn 1 or 3 or turn 17 or... It just makes all your problems GO AWAY.

We saw him perform on the Norway (cruise ship) about 25 years ago. He was hilarious!!! It was about the time he was doing the beer commercials.

Just head on down to your local Home Depot and pick up some Weldwood contact cement and follow the instructions for it's use. The small bottle is about 5 bucks. It comes with a small brush inside that will work fine. I use it on all the holsters I build and it works great. Be sure to apply as...

Try this place. I have bought several hides from them. You may want to spend a few extra bucks and get the Hermann- Oak hides. They are far better than the Tandy hides from what I have been told. I get the 7-8oz. Don't be affraid to ask them to hand select a hide for you. Some are better than...

Looks like your off to a good start! If you haven't found it yet, here is a link to a leather working forum that is chalked full of info. There is even a section devoted to holsters and knife sheaths. Leatherworker.net
