I'd like to thank Kid Terico,Ace, Marshal Will, and Gun Butcher, for your kind remarks, GB, you have a lot of heart, and that will get you where you want to go, just hang in there, what's nice about sharing is we can all get fresh ideas, every one has a different style and thoughts as to design and color and finish, just another reason why I like working with leather.

Beautiful work again, that is a really cool looking holster and sheath, I everything about it, real period look to it, and you your table top is awesome, your quit a hand at carving yourself, this really came out nice, carving is still something I need too sharpen my skills on, and I sure appreciate others skills when it comes to the beautiful carving you pards do.

Thanks for sharing all your pieces with us, I know every one looks forward to your next post.

Howdy KT,
I just took the time to look at that last rig you posted, it is way cool!!! I love the way to laid out the spots! Are those spots on the holster or are they a small concho? They realy set it off!! Makes the whole rig come togther!! I love all the news rigs coming on here, sure makes a person think outside the box!! Thanks again for the inlay hides, I want to get the Big Rig done, so I can start drawing up my first inlay!!
Keep them Coming Pards!!

Thanks for everything guys. Ace those are small lead conchos from Buffalo Bros. They are rivet back. KT

Marshal Will Wingam · October 07, 2009, 04:06:38 PM

JD, that belt really looks good. It makes a good rig with those holsters. Nice work.

Kid, more cool examples of your work. That framed cowboy looks very good. The horse is well done, you can almost hear it snort as it pulls it's head up.

Howdy Everyone,

Been travelin' a bit and have not access to my home computer for the last five days. It's always a genuine pleasure to come back and view the beautiful Leather Work posted recently. My compliments to everyone for the great job you are all doing. I'm proud of you all and happy to be a part of this forum.

Gun Butcher · October 07, 2009, 09:05:57 PM

Hey Cowboy, good lookin' work . I really like that small holster. The pattern fits it to a tee,almost like you planned it

Kid Terico · October 07, 2009, 09:24:14 PM

Hey Cowboy, Was that a shot from GB? KT

cowboy316 · October 07, 2009, 09:32:28 PM

LOL

Marshal Will Wingam · October 07, 2009, 09:45:41 PM

Those really look good, Cowboy. The tooling on the holsters is really fine. I particularly like the wild rose pattern on the 1911 holster. Darn good work.

JD Alan · October 08, 2009, 07:35:58 AM

This morning I went back and took a closer look at K.T. and Cowboy 316's work. I was sort of on the fly yesterday.

Terry, that carving is downright exceptional! I agree with Marshall Will, you can almost hear that horse snort. That kind of carving must take quite some time developing your natural skills. You have a great eye for detail.

Cowboy 316, once again I must agree with the Marshall, I really like the Wild Rose pattern and carving on that Wild Bunch holster. The other work looks good too. I still remember the first holster you posted, and man oh man have you come "A right smart piece" as my grandmother would say.

Thanks guys for sharing your inspiring work. JD
