Cowboy, I could be wrong, but I think RT is referring to the amount of time Marshall Will puts his holsters in water for wet molding.

If I'm wrong, they will straighten me out

RT, that's one fine lookin holster. Did you receive that strip of leather in the mail I sent you? JD

RollingThunder · July 23, 2009, 07:55:21 AM

Yes I did, Parson. Emailin' ya back right now.

And yeah, it was "Marshal Will's Water Dunk Technique" ... now, if I was over at Camp Cook's place, I'd dunk the leather in water and dunk some of that Crown into a shotglass. Don't know if that would be good or bad for my leather though.

C316 -- yeah, bartering off a bit of farrier work for leather sure don't hurt. I'm also repairing some front horse boots he has for him, and he was interested in some chinks. LOL. This leather workin' deal is pannin' out a little bit.

Howdy RT,

You did a beautiful job on your Holster. It has a great look to it. Many thanks for sharing this with us.

Nice work RT,

That's a beautiful holster, RT. I like the color a lot. The Dodge City pattern is one of my favorites.

Very cool sheath, CC. The small basket weave looks good on it. It's always nice to have the first one you made. I don't have too many of my first items. You can always admire them and appreciate the excitement you felt then.

RT,
Very nice Dodge City rig!! I like the color and the stamping. I cut a Dodge city pattern out 3 months ago, but just havn't got inspired to do it yet!?
Thanks for sharing.

RollingThunder · July 25, 2009, 07:34:27 AM

Thanks Wiley ... now, as with all things of this nature, I have to make it's mirror twin if it fits his pistol.

New project I just finished for my parents.....

Leather measures about 22". Pic looks smaller than real life.

Gun Butcher · July 27, 2009, 09:04:37 PM

Marshal Will Wingam · July 27, 2009, 11:53:49 PM

Cool, CC. The frame really sets off the leather. Good idea.
