Today I tried to create a Holster within a very short time, and so on I needed around 10 minutes to made this. What do you think ?
I know, some details are missing, but hey within 10 minutes :wink:

10 MINUTES?? :shock: Pretty nice going there Max. It looks good, Did you use the pattern I uploaded? and how thick is the leather, It looks like you were able to use a regular sewing machine.

Best regards,
Kim

Pretty impressive that you did that in 10 mins. I'm thinking about attempting to make my own holster if I ever get the chance. I really like the color of the leather you used. Nice work!

Yes K, I used you´re uploaded patterns. Without them it would be impossible :wink: The leather I used isn´t very thick, but so it is taking the outlines of my Arminius Revolver very well, thats a great effect :wink:

Very hot, IMax. No sense in asking where you got the leather, since you're on the other side of the Pond. Very nice piece of work.
BTW, where is the pattern?

K, I'm going to give your holster a shot, but I'm having trouble tracking down some leather. Where do you guys find you leather pieces?

Just from my cobbler. I have also a leather store around the corner, but I don´t think that is a great help for you :cry:

I buy it at my local leather shop but there must be some online shops out there.

Most impressive, Max!
Tell me, is this pattern adaptable for a Webley if I just lengthen the pattern in the barrel about an inch?
I am in a state of emergency right now! I NEED a Webley holster for the 14 of July and ebay has failed me yet again. I live in Australia, thus there is no guarrantee a replica will reach me in time, therefore I must make my own. :?

Also, did you hand stitch this or use a sewing machine?

Don't you have any stores in Australia with Webley holsters, ape? I would think that they'd do an overnight or two day delivery...

It is adaptable for a Webley, you just have to lenghten it :wink:
Good luck, hope you get it in time :wink:

heck i buy my leather by the side from tandy :lol: ... check around for a local leather shop most of them sell scrap pieces for dirt cheap. in fact go to tandys website and you can see if they have a store near you, they have them all over the place. if nothing else there is alway ebay or we might be able to work something out :wink:
