EET, yer right, another one fer sure.

Just got the backorder in for my leather, took 3 weeks as I recall.

Toook and spruced up my blackbeauty, it's 5 yrs. old and all ready for the summer shoots.

In case ya aint seen her here a pik

[EE Taft]

Back order whew!!  You must be way out in the wilds.

I get my leather orders in next day, and that's regular shipping.

Good lookin' set up there Pard.  Makes me wish I had my rig done, but then I'da missed the fun of makin' it.

Wow, I'm gone for one day and youall let these younguns just run wild. That is some mighty fine leatherwork by all of you. Its good to have you young guns showing your stuff.
Keeps us old farts on our toes

[Johnny McCrae]

Man, a guy sure has to stay on his toes around here, with all the fine leatherwork coming down the pike or he's likely to miss it.

JD hit the nail on the head here!

Yup, it's funny how the world can go astray when ya stop to take a breather.

Thanks for the welcome pard. I'm gonna try to get some more stuff lined up to post in the next couple of days.

I just wonder why I didn't get on here sooner. I been on the Wire for 2 or 3 years now.

Just weren't on the ball I guess.

Howdy JM, Thanks for the welcome.

 Larrupin, those are all very fine rigs. +1 on everything the other pards said.
I can see that your son would be very proud of that rig of his. That is some beautiful work

[JD Alan]

EE Taft, I'm lookin at that brown holster you posted, trying to figure out how it's attached to the belt! I think it's really great that you are as young as you are and have been doing this as long as you have. I'm gonna turn 61 in a couple of months, and I'm not quite 2 years into this stuff, with a whole lot to learn, so I ask a lot of questions!

That brown and black dye job is really sharp! The stamping is real good looking too.

Thanks a lot, JD

[JD Alan]

Holy Cow, is that a lot of lacing or what? You did an excellent job on that rig. I've got that pattern but have not felt brave enough to try it yet. Thanks for sharing the pics, JD

Montana Slick is that a Thunder i see ?? i just love that gun i have one with the 3 1/2 barrell 357 cal and i use it for my c&c carry that dud everywhere. im trying to make a Sholder holster one strap like the one cimmiron calls the doc but takes time and getting the botom u bult into thr holster ant as easy as it looks any suggestions. how bout you EET or ten wovles how do you get the right angle on the bottom of the sholder strap if im not explaing it right go to the cimmiron site pull up the doc thunder combo and you will see what im talking about the holster and the bottom u are all part of the holster pattern i have a pattern for around the chest rig but i just love the doc.Mt that rig you got your thunder in is real slick no pun intended(ha) and EET your work is what im striving to be able to produce you can teach an old dog new tricks it just takes longer and im short on patience i want to be able to do it NOW but i only been doing lether work for 2 to 3 months so life gos on the guys on this fourm are the best as far as moral suport they cant be beat. i tryied to two tone one last night and about 3am i got disgusted an did it all in chocolate.

[MontanaSlick]

MHB, Thanks for the comp.
Yup it's a Thunder and a fine shooting one at that, but I keep it super clean.

I make 5 1/2 " holster for my not too 5" irons, keeps the end of the barrels out of harms way

EET, I got in on the tail end of the year end sale on the leather, gone but for 1/2 price I kin wait it out.

I like to hand pick out my leather, like ya say, picky, picky, well I need to chill out too, I'm trying.

I must be in dyer need of some projects, so I cleaned up my last place on the bottom scores boots, all oiled up and ready fer some action here soon.
