Good job, Kid. I wouldn't have thought about a pair of them. Cool rig.

[Kid Cavalier]

Here is another rig for a female mounted shooter.

Both holsters mounted on the belt. This rig is for a female mounted shooter, steel lined, with steel around the cylinder AND barrel of the gun to obtain the necessary tension to keep the gun in the holster during the run.

[Marshal Will Wingam]

Fine work, Kid. Beautiful rig.

[GunClick Rick]

Hey Pards!

Here my start on a rig that is one of three that I did as custom builds for a raffle to benefit some folks that lost homes in the Colorado fires over the summer. One of the winners is a firechief in Divide Colorado and was working on the Waldo Canyon fire. His rig is yet to come. This is the start of the entire project.

Let me know what y'all think of it.....been a while since I've done any carving!

[Marshal Will Wingam]

Looks good, EE. Be sure to post a pic when it's finished.

[EE Taft]

Not to worry..... .......My wife is a photographer! We always have plenty of pics!

Just got done tooling the second holster......looks good to me! I'm pretty quick at the tooling as (for me) it's the most enjoyable part. then comes the lining and the real work at making it a functional rig......the thing that slows me down is the stitching. I'm not real old but the years of doing this has taken a toll on my hands......I gotta go awhile, then stop.....go and stop......ya know how it is.

I'd love to get my hands on a nice hand powered sewing machine but alas, I'm a bit short of funds for that right now.

Thanks for the kind words.

It's good to be back at it! Just got in a BIG order of leather yesterday and already through one hide (shoulders) just cutting belts for these rigs and a few others.

I just love this stuff!

[EE Taft]

I failed to mention...that's not one of my wife's pro pics! I took it with my smart(er than me) phone.

This rig is going to be a nice dark brown when finished......should be nice!

[santee]

Nice carving, EE!
Haven't posted a pic in awhile. Here are some cuffs I put together for a non-fancy cowboy. Tended to want to put some "bling" on it, but reigned myself in.

[WaddWatsonEllis]

Santee et al,

These are Will Ghormley cuffs and spur straps that I made to match a set of holsters I 'adapted' from Will Ghormley's Johnny Ringo rig ... the conchos on the cuffs match the ones on the Johnny Ringo rig ....







I used left over black leather from the holsters ...9-10 oz .... and I wish I had used thinner leather for the cuffs! I get blisters at the wrist every time I wear them ....

TTFN,

[Marshal Will Wingam]

Nice cuffs, Santee. Looks good.

WW that's a fine rig. The cuffs and spur straps complete the set. Nice work.
