ETA: Yeah Yeah fail.... Lol

I make holsters as a hobby and thought we might have others amongst us. Post up your work if you do. Here are some of my projects.

I use the actual gun and mold the warm kydex in a press.

Thanks. Right now I'm trying to knock out my local list. If I finish what I have on my plate, I may take on some more projects. I do this on the side and free time is sparse for me right now unfortunately

I bought a Dozier &Sons knife that came with Kydex sheath. Now I wish I had Kydex sheath for all of my knives.

Mine look terrible compared to yours but I made them using a pillow and cardboard as my press. I made 4 crossbreed style holsters for around 50$

Did some more over the weekend



Here's what I conceal carry in. Made to ride appendix IWB. This one fits glock 19/23/17/22


Duty style holster for glock 17/22 with APL. The glock 19/23 will fit as well. Attaches to belt with blade-tech Tek Lok.


Who recognizes this 1911? ; ) I'm not real happy with the retention on this one and I'm going to remold it. I don't have much experience doing light bearing holsters yet but I'll figure it out.


And I finished out the 1911 kit with the dual mag carrier

My stuff sucks, I only make stuff when I can't find it or I need it in the next couple days. I don't try to make it pretty either, I just want functional.

Your stuff looks great, much much better than mine.

I've been going at it for about a year now. I've thrown away more than I wear/sell it's still a fun hobby though and I can't stand being conquered by a piece of plastic so I always try to make something I'm proud of.

ETA: Kengel12 post up some of your stuff no matter what it looks like! I may have a few tips too if you want.

They all look good and well made. I'm just not a fan of kydex, I like good ole animal skin
