I'll be sure and post pics when I get that rig completed.

I'll have double strong side holsters, belt, knife sheath, and matching cuffs and spur straps.

Nice work!!
I think all of us leather workers (is it work?) feel the same way as you do, and see our own mistakes more than the other guy. I think its part of the craft.

Well, as I said before..  For most of y'all, it's ART, for me it's work!

I gotta work hard to be half as talented as some of you guys.  Man, some of the stuff on here is just amazing!!

I'd be proud to be part of the ranks.

Thanks fellers!

If y'all are like me, ya strive to do better with every project ya do.

I love doing this stuff, it is calming and very enjoyable.

Been doing leather work for several years now and still enjoy it as when I first started.

EE,

That is one mighty fine looking holster!  I'm not much into bling, but I could see myself wearing that rig!!   Gotta go wipe the drool off my new shirt!

[EE Taft]

Dr. Bob,

I kinda feel the same way.  I don't like too much bling, but this is more suited to me for a fancy rig.

Anything more and I'da probably found a new home for it.

But I like.......I think I'll keep.

Thanks for the compliment Pard.

Chill out EE, yer as bad as I am looking for mistakes that no one else kin find.
Only the maker knows fer sure.

I like that holster, looks like hand stitching to me.

How did ya get such a nice big picture? I've tried the  recomened 400x246 pix..96 dpi and it comes out small.

I like to see detailed piks so I kin ooooh and awwww, like yer Holster.

Nice rig Larrupin, I kin see this was well planned out, nice work.

Thinking of a B-Western for myself, I have the pattern but when it comes to working on my projects, I do it my way.
Ferget the pattern eh. I just wanted to see what it looks like.

I Just posted what I had on photobucket directly to this forum. Not real sure what it takes to do one that big other that what I did.

Yup, Hand stitched. I don't own a sewing machine.  Would like to get one sometime though, for bigger jobs ya know.

I will try both here and on the wire to document my build as I finish the different parts and post a pic. of all when I'm done.
It may take a while as I have other jobs that I'm doing.  I'm just workin' on my rig around the others.

I thought that might be an interesting way of doing it.

Thank all for the compliments.  Mama Taft (the wife) said fer y'all to quit bein' so nice or my head won't fit through the door.

EE Great lookin rig, like the bling.  Now lets get to the buckle behind it.  WoW!!!!  Thats a biggin.  Really like that


AC

[EE Taft]

Sorry Pard, That's not a buckle.

I had another Pard that I sent it to on an email that asked me the same thing.

It's a picture frame.  I thought it would be a nice looking way to prop it up for the pic.

I'm gonna have everyone askin' where to get a big buckle like that now.

[Arizona Cattleman]

Thought I was in Heaven.... Oh Well, maybe there is one out there............

CB, looks good. Actually that Taurus isnt much different than a Glock for fitting purposes.On a Glock holster though you should definately cover the trigger as there is no safety.Dave 

Here's a design I use on the Glocks( the two on the left) and the one on the right is for a 1911.Inlays are shark, and alligator for the Glocks and Stingray for the 1911.

I like the fish and alligator skins. I've been wantin' to try some snake skin inlays but havn't gotten around to it yet.

Very nice!!
