    I've never ordered through their website so I can't comment on that.

    Their stores are fairly loosely franchised so your experience will vary depending upon the owner of the store you go to and their intrests. The one nearest me is heavily into figural carving and making som incredible art there they are truely experts. Ask them about the more practicle things like holster or saddle construction and you are on your own.

    should go to a dive shop in the area. most of them carry d-rings that us divers used to attach to our gear to attach MORE gear via clips. they are like ~3 bucks each for a big dee ring and pretty light and SS

    D Rings???!!! I thought they were replaced by safety release buckles long before I stopped diving (25+years ago.) I guess like straight razors, some things never die.

    Nice work. I've been thinking about that too. I don't know anything about these guys but they have pretty low-priced leather straps:

    I just went to make a purchase at eleatherworks.com - but changed my mind; they charge $13 shipping which almost doubles the price. Guess I'll look for a local Tandy store.
