Holsters

Great idea but there are some alternatives that might be preferable. I use grocery bags (plastic) that haven't held substances that would damage the leather and place them in the holster to help shape the holster. The risk, though, among Americans (more is always better) is that you strain the weak stitching on your holster and pull apart the front and back from too much holster-stuffing. You can also damage the pull-up strap if you don't carefully avoid it when filling a holster.


On another note, I have used styrofoam to form holster body shapes and make reproduction leather parts. I have not made a lid yet but was able to make a decent body.
