So every year I celebrate International Talk Like A Pirate Day (September 19th) and I  drag my coworkers along (shanghai).   As part of that, beyond the pirate themed food, I collect for a local no-kill shelter.    As part of the collection for the last 5 years, I have made some leather items to raffle.   This year, it is just one item and it is not piraty, but will hopefully collect some doubloons.

Pretty nice. How is the leather attached to the bottom?

I use wood screws with finishing washers all the way around.   I attached leather to wood using contact cement, then did the screws.   On the bottom, the screws are set to be the "feet" of the bag, so two on each side spaced evenly.  The inside pocket is riveted, and then screwed to the wood sides as well.    A couple of years ago I did a messenger bag that had no stitching, just woven.  This one is also no stitching, just rivets and screws.   It works well, but if/when I do it again, I am going for less depth.   I believe the boards are 3 3/4"   I think I would rip them to 3 or 2 3/4.   It would give it a sleaker look.   Winner was not sure if it would go to college with daughter or stay with mom.

I need a gun holster for my g43x. What's your suggestion?

Major 2

Way too many variables....

Concealed, open carry, field carry, combat carry, stealth carry?

IWB, OWB, pocket carry, ankle?

Appendix, cross draw, 9 o-clock, 11 o-clock right or left hand?  small of back, shoulder carry?

Leather, Kydex, leather/Kydex Hybrid or Fiber-Reinforced Polymer

Then you have retention Level one , Level 2 or 3 ?

its not as simple as What's your suggestion?

You could, like most of us have box full of holsters till you find the one that works best FOR you!

Best suggestion- type in Glock g43 9mm holster on Amazon and enjoy the ride  :)

BTW...this is a Western Action leaning forum here you might get something like this suggested...

when planets align...do the deal !

If you're looking at a concealment rig, the Sneaky Pete has worked well for me with a Glock 42.

Honestly, my opinion would be to get a nice kydex holster for that type of gun. If you really just want a leather one there are many styles to choose from.

Thank you. It is quite comfortable. I build this one for myself to use in the Louisiana Swamps for hog hunting however; a friend of mine who now lives in Austrailia saw it and really wanted it so it's not on route to the land down under. Guess I'll have to build me another.

He'll be happy with that. It'll be nice to see your next one.

If you're using a 1911, is that set up for 45 Super?

While browsing on YouTube for some car repair information, I stumbled upon this video:
It's rather long but I found it interesting.
