I've watched a lot of videos on how to do this....NOBODY! explains it like you do....Thank you very much!....you have no idea how long I've been wanting to do this to my projects and haven't had the courage up to now thanks to you. I enjoyed the video and once again....THANK YOU!!!😊
Man, I just lost a condo from the seat of my Harley. This saved me. Now that I know how easy it is to swap them out, I'm going to replace all of them with something with silver and turquoise. Thanks.
When my Daddy passed away he left me his leather tools. I'm mostly self taught until I came accross your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and skills.
When you finish, you need to learn to end in the exact same holes that you started with. Pretty sloppy. It's your first week, so you'll get better hopefully.
Just wanted to say I followed your tutorial to make a holster, and I have been using it for 8+ years and it's still good as when I made it. Thank you for the great instructions!
Clearly and simply demonstrated. As a personal preference, I like to have the leather on the backside of the holster high up above the top of the pistol's slide grip so it won't dig into my side while wearing it.
These wrist cuffs make pretty good cartridge holders with the addition of bullet loops. I shoot a Thompson Center Contender (single shot with no magazine at all) and it sure makes it easy to have 5 or 6 rounds on a wrist cuff. At first I was thinking of putting 15 rounds on a forearm cuff but decided against that for practical reasons. Ammo on a wrist cuff is better that digging around in your pocket for another round to insert in the barrel. Also a lot quicker.
just trying to ger started having trouble getting my needle laced the thread will not stay in the needle. I skyev the lace cut it to a point but when I pull it it cones out of the needle ???
Correction: Kevin....owner of Springfield Leather Company explains many "do's & don'ts & what to be careful of when doing the above lacing. He also explains this lacing on 1 thickness of leather as well as 2 thicknesses of leather. For more of a variety of lacing, see----Costura de Borde del 1 (Mejorado) "El Rincon Del Soguero" When you find this video, you will see other techniques of different lacing.
Take a better piece of wisdom of this by seeing--"Kevin's Take on the Double Loop Lace." Kevin, the owner of Springfield Leather Company explains many do's and don't and what to be so careful of when doing the Double Loop Lace.......
Very Nice, Really Like it. Would have like to have seen how you sewed it and the machine you used to sew. I am going to attempt to make the old saddle bag they used in the old west. I call them wesfargo bags. Thank you Very Much For Your tutorial. You Do Fine Work.
Hi, could you possibly show how to splice when you don't have a space in between the leather to hide the end? Like when you are adding it to an already made bag?
