Many thanks to everyone for the kind words.

NICE! One fer ye and mou~

[Good Troy]

Here's a set of Johnny Ringo Holsters from Will Ghormley's pattern that I just finished.  I did the canvas belt and badge holder as well....originally I made the canvas belt was a bandolier, but it didn't function well in that service.  The spur straps are from Will's patterns as well.  The tooled design on the straps is my doing...sorry, there isn't a good detail on them in this photo.   This is as much fun as shooting!

[Johnny McCrae]

Very nice Troy! Johnny Ringo himself would be proud to wear that rig. We look forward to see your next project.

[Camano Ridge]

Troy, welcome. Thats a nice looking outfit.

[Ten Wolves Fiveshooter]

Beautifull work, and welcome to our forum Troy..

Mine but made by Dave Carrico, houses my #3

and refinished in my own mixture of dyes & Skidmores

Thanks, I should mention the money belt is my work, from leather Johnny McCrae sent me several years ago.
But David did do the holster and I did the color...
I'm pleased with the set...thanks for the kudos 

[Good Troy]

Thanks for the kind words, pard'ners!
I certainly get inspiration from this forum.
I'm working on some El Dorado holsters, now. 
Just plain jane....but It will be my first set of lined, and with a trigger guard welt.

[Major 2]

I'm still am marveled by the fine craftsmanship and finished products y'all produce...

but from time to time...I just hobby around with my own

I had decided to get a Wild Bunch era 1911* , and wanted holster for it...  ( * 1st. 1911 I will have owned in maybe 10-12 years, 2nd ever in fact  )
I have to tell you, the gun is in route so I had no sample to shape my design...
Though it is not unusual or even unique,  this is my own hand drawn pattern.  
I tried the fit with a friends 1911 yesterday ....  nailed it .... draw is slick as snot and retains the gun nicely.

Leather is two pieces of 5 oz veg tan glued together so the holster is fully lined , finish is just heavy applied Skidmores
and sun light....

[Skeeter Lewis]

This is a copy of the scabbard on page 91 of Cowboys & Trappings.

[Camano Ridge]

Skeeter, outstnding work as usual. Very impressive, I just looked it upin my copy of that book it looks as close to the original as it gets. original.

[Johnny McCrae]

Howdy Skeeter,

Wow! That is an awesome job of carving. Many thanks for sharing your skills with us.

[Mogorilla]

Skeeter, I think we need a drool emoticon.   That is great.  I do have a question on those.  Do the rivets for the strap keepers go all the way through, or just through the one thickness of leather and there is a corresponding keeper on the other side?

thanks,
