Here's a link to a picture of a tablet case I made.  We use a tablet running the A.C.E.S. APP for scoring our local cowboy match. 

Hope you like it.

Very nice case, pard. I like the way you did the strap. Looks good.

That's excellent. Now does it have the secret magnet that turns off the tablet when it's in the case? More serious question. What sort of lining did you use to protect the face

[Lucky R. K.]

Thanks ballncap.  The case is not lined.  I have used it for about two years  now with no noticeable changes to the glass screen.

Howdy Ballncap,
That is a fine looking case. Would you have any other pictures showing the inside?

Howdy JJ,
Great job! Looks like those warm up Holsters helped. That's a very clean and neat Holster you have made there.

Many thanks to you Gents for sharing your work with us.

Hi Johnny, thanks for your comments.  Sorry but I do not have any pictures of the inside of the case.  It is just unlined leather.

Been a long time since I have poked my head in here. Been busy with a big load of Life getting in the way.

Anyway, been doing some leatherwork lately, some of it cowboy related.

Very nice work Lucky!

I am totally new to this.  It was recomended by Major2 and he informed me of this site/board.  I also have begun to dab into leathercrafting.  From the posts I have read it seems to be quite informative.  I am wannting to make a holster and a bandolier. I have been a little leary because I am not sure of some things:

What thickness of leather does one use?
How are the ammo slots formed onto the leather belt? Do you sew one side, place ammo in and fold over ammo then sew the next side or is there some other way to sew the slots for the ammo?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Mountain_man

Mountain Man welcome. If yu go to the How to FAQ on this forum you will find a lot of information on cartridge loops http://www.cascity.com/forumhall/index.php/topic,9631.0.html .

You said sewing the slots. THere are several ways to do the loops you can sew the loops (the how to gives spacing for different calibers) you can do woven or semi woven where you cut lots and thread the loop strip.

You said you wanted to make a bandolier and holster. Are you looking to make a bandolier for amunition and a seperte holster for on your belt or are you looking to make a bandolier holster combo?

[Mountain_Man]

Amazing work with the snake skin.

camano Ridge thanks for input, all is appreciated

Welcome to the forum, Mountain Man. This is the right place to launch an interest. Looking forward to seeing your stuff.

I made this one as a shooting bag for the my 68 caliber smoothbore but didn't like the way it set around my shoulder so I re-modeled it into a belt bag...Now I LIKE it!!

It is 7″ wide x 8″ tall and the belt loops will fit on a 3″ wide belt...The leather came from a yard sale coat and has a 1 1/2″ wide gusset stitched in the bottom to make it a little roomier, also a small interior pocket. I stitched it with linen and added a few beads at the seams...The rosette pattern came from a pic of a war shirt...The bag closer is a rolled rawhide button and the belt loop buttons are antler...

Finished with homebrew dye, grease, dirt and varnish....

The patch knife is 11″ overall with half sharp, made from a file and the tine of a Whitetail and has it's own rawhide sheath......Randy
