    That looks really god. I know you said this was your first holster, however, have you made other leather projects in the past? Again, job well done!

    That looks really good. It looks like you've had experience with this before

    Look good, I've thought of trying it myself. How much was the stuff to make it.

    Here is the list of items I used. I had to purchase items with an asterisk. Leather was $6.00, the rest was $30.

    8.5 x 11” paper and pencil for drawing the pattern

    Scissors - the heavy duty craft kind.

    Sharp razor knife

    Enough leather for the holster*

    Leather glue (I used gorilla glue, not necessary but makes sewing easier)

    Overstitcher*

    Waxed white thread*

    Stitching needles*

    1/16” drill bit and drill to make the holes for sewing.

    Snaps*

    Snap tools*

    Small clamps to hold leather in place while glue is drying. Another idea I read about was to use those small black binder clips from an office supply store.

    Neatsfoot oil

    Leather punch for making holes for the snaps - You could use a drill bit for this also.
