Thread: We Have Skills Too !!

My next project that I have lined up is repairing and restoring a pancake holster. It is made from nylon but is a really good holster. It has lasted about 10 years now but is just plain worn out. I cut the paper templates this evening. I'll send you guys some pictures. This will be from start to finish.

Here is the current condition of the holster. The belt loops are in terrible shape and are torn. My goal is to take some leather and sew it into the places where the belt loops are to regain security in holding it in place. The second picture shows my templates made from paper that I will use to cut the leather. More to come as the project progresses.

Keeping an eye on this one,,,

Good stuff John, I happen to be making an shoulder holster for my pair of M57 Tokarevs, it also integrates with my web gear, had a bunch of horse hide butts, figured, might as well.

Keep us posted,,,

I will and watching the projects is pure fun. Now to figure out posting pics here, probably run O the mill.

Love eastern block arms +1

Here is a small vitamin pouch for a 7 shot Nagant Vitamin Dispenser. I was a little off on the snap, it should have been a bit higher. A wooden block is inserted that keeps the vitamins spaced & ready for easy retrieval.

My next project will be a licorice holder for my Mosin Nagant Licorice Dispenser, in 7.62 x 54R size,, this will be a stock holder, not for the belt.


Thanks for looking,

Very nice pouch. What kind of thread do you use and it looks like your hand stitching? Love the stitching pattern
