Leather work is great fun with lots of personal satisfaction.

Thanks everybody!

I'm working on a pancake for my Glock 19 right now, i'll keep you informed how it turns out ;).
I'm wondering how i can even the edges. The top and the bottom layer are not exactly the same shape, so i think of a way to fix that. Can i sand the edges to even them?

Another thing i'm wondering is: How do you top notch holster makers get your holsters so shiny? I don't know if it's the leather, but mine look kinda crumpled. I did not want to buy the high quality leather just to fool around with, so i was cheap and took the cheap stuff instead ;)

I would appreciate any hints!

Mike
