Making a "Magnetic Leather" Retention 1911 Cross Draw Holster ASMR Leathercraft
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
A deceptively simple basketweave leather 1911 cross draw holster with multiple adjustable retention devices. The surprise hidden feature? The toe plug includes a stack of powerful neodymium magnets. This one took a bit of engineering. I tried my best to match the dye color to that of the grips. As usual, the inside is fully lined with milled veg tan. When used with the thumb break strap, no metal comes into contact on the inside.
All leather and the concho are from Tandy Leather.
Stamps used:
Craftool X500S basketweave
Barry King - #2 Barker / Veiner Stamp

Your holsters belong in a Modern Art museum, not locked away in some rich guy's gun safe. Every video I see you post shows your amazing craftsmanship and attention to fine detail. Using neodymium magnets for a failure-proof hidden retention mechanism is brilliant.

Absolutely amazing handwork and the details of this build are phenomenal to watch. Your toe plug fabrication with the magnet is genius Thanks for sharing your skills with us
This is one of the most innovative ideas I’ve seen in holster making recently. Very cool!
Congratulations,masters of craftsmanship like you are increasingly rare nowadays.
Nice design and craftsmanship. I've done some leatherwork myself and can appreciate the ingenuity of the magnet placement. A new take on an old problem. Great job.
This is quite an amazing 1911 style holster you made! You once again astounded me with your craftsmanship!
лучшая кобура которую доводилось видеть, для такой отдельный стенд нужен и под стекло чтобы только любоваться, носить такую будет жалко) мастеру здоровья и процветания!!!!
С восхищением смотрю на Вашу работу и созданные Вами настоящие произведения искусства! Настоящий мастер - БРАВО!

Watching you make amazing holsters bring back memories with my dad making holsters, your work is incredible amazing.
Mind-blowing work . Extremely beautiful sheath and at the same time extremely practical
I always enjoy watching you work and also implementing some of your ideas in my own works!
Beautiful work as always. I love to watch you create. I've started to try and learn holster making, and being able to see the details of how you work is so helpful. Thanks.

I'm lovin the magnet and the overall design. Awesome as always!
I am new to this but I am so impressed with the work that you do. I come from a very high end remodeling contractor background so I respect and appreciate high end quality. Your stuff is pure art. I'm 70 years old and just starting to learn this craft, mostly because I'm left handed and my holster choices are slim add to that I don't like boring. I love the white wedding combo. I'm in Texas, you're in Texas ( I'm not stalking) but if I knew where you were I would follow you home just to learn from you. Your work is so far above anything else I have seen to try to learn from on KZread. Please do more. I'm not sucking up but your stuff is so inspiring. I love the vinegar and steel wool thing, who knew?
Absolutely beautiful. Period, just beautiful work.

Really enjoying watching your videos, most excellent craftsmanship. I happened to see the scrap tile that you use for weight and other things, has an Arizona Tile label, interesting company history. An Arizona company, the owner/founder is John Huarte. 1964 Heisman trophy winner. I coached his son back in the 90's in Tempe AZ. Not sure why I thought it relevant to Leatherworking, but good to know I suppose.
I reckon it took more time to make this holster than it took to make the gun, and I reckon it's worth more than the gun!

I'm so amazed and speechless that your craftsmanship is so beautiful. ..🙌🙌 I wish I could order that for my 1911 colt 45
I admire the way you use parallel jaw pliers to pull and push the needle. A lot of guys would have used lineman's pliers or needlenose pliers. Liked.

What can I say!! Outstanding! Wonderful! World-class! Dan Landqvist 'Sweden
As soon as I saw the "Buckle" holding the firearm in the holster, I was running for my keyboard (until I saw the "Snap") That is really slick how you can unsnap with pressure from your right thumb. Very nice work ! You know, if you had a website selling these holsters (or other items) , I would gladly pay premium $$ for your skills. Furthermore, I would happily wait until it was finished. Zaine

I'd rid the majority collection of my 1911 holsters for this one. Excellent art work with no short cuts. Worth every penny spent on it for the buyer.👍

I stumbled across this video just surfing the You Tube site. I was an LEO for over 30 years and never saw a holster so well made. Incredible craftsmanship. It looks like mums the word on who you are and if you make holsters on request. That’s too bad you could have quite a business going with the resultant backlog. Really nice looking product.

I've been working with laser cutting my leather, I'll have to try wetting the leather. I've started using an air assist on my diode laser and find that it cuts much easier and cleaner, I believe it's because the smoke is blown away and doesn't refract the laser. That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it.
Good good man. What a work of art!
Well you decided to tease us so now its time for a tool box tour. Please sir 😁
