This holster was for someone special and they were curious as to how it was done so I took pics of the process and thought I would share the process here.
Starts with the paper. If the paper is wrong, I don't find out until the end. In other words, the paper is very important.
Lay out a side of leather and trace it out.
Cut it out, Sand the edges
Transfer marks from paper, to know where to stitch, Bevel. Put a grove in the leather, where I will be sewing. Case the leather and then stamp it.
After it dries, Apply Dye
After it dries, buff it and then get out the air brush and put the black accents on.
Punch some holes to accommodate the thumb break hardware.
Burnish the edges on the Re enforcement piece.
The hardware is encased in between the pieces of leather.
Apply contact cement.
Press it together and off to sew. Then work the edges over again.
Fold in half, cement the ear and sew again. Punch the belt slot hole. Sand some more.
Dye the edges
Burnish once again.
Burnish, Burnish, Burnish
Dunk the whole thing in water, shove the blue gun in and form the whole thing with my thumbs.
Off to the easy bake oven for bout an hour and then begin "boning" it in .
Few pics of the thumb break
Once it has dried completely, burnish all the edges one last time and apply sealant.
There you go......Easy breezy
