Hey!

This was my first satisfactory gun-related project. My other work is archery leather. The whole reason I got started with leatherwork was because of the great work a of guy on a lever gun forum. It's funny-  it's like I'm walking backwards into CAS. First, I'm getting my the leather together, then the gear and regalia...( luckily, my wife is absolutely willing to sew for me), the guns will be coming last...

Anyway, there are so many tons of great examples and fantastic support on these forums, I had to join.

Well everybody in Casablanca has problems.
Yours may work out.

Looks good Mat. Starting with the leather is a good idea. The build or delivery time usually holds pards up longer than anything. Welcome to the forum. Looking forward to your posts.

Just a little starter project. I did a fair amount of leather work in the 70s and am getting back into it to make my kit for cowboy shooting. Have my holsters and belts cut out and getting started on them as well as cuffs, badge holder and such. Anywho, here's my take on the lever wrap. Just a bit of leather in a reddish brown finish and some semi-fancy lacing. I soaked the leather in some Hoppe's #9 hoping to prevent any future rust under it.

I'm experimenting with making Holsters for my non Cowboy pistols. Here is one I made for my Bersa 380. I'll be making another with a slightly different design for my Smith & Wesson J-Frame Revolver.

Everytime I dye a black Holster or Belt I have to again thank Wolftracker for that wondeful jug of Vinegaroon he gave me.

Howdy Will & TW,

Many thanks for the kind words and the excellent Forum you Gents run.

Without the the Leather Shop Forum I probably would have never found out about Vinegaroon, Walnut dye and the many other things that help me in making Holsters and other Leather items. In fact it was the Leather Shop that gave me the idea to take a crack at Leather Working back in early 2006.

Here is a detachable Sling I made for a local Deer Hunter's Muzzle Loader.

The end cap was wet-molded and the entire Sling was finished with only Neet's Foot Oil.
