Between bouts of icing down the boys I’ve been plugging away at the holster thing. I let my sales go a bit wild the last few weeks anticipating having time to deal with it now. The last week of sales was the biggest week I’ve ever had. I’m almost out of leather and waiting on 5 sides to ship.

Holsters drying after finish applied.

Holsters stitched but not finished.

And I have another XFrame cross draw to start later today. Might pre make a few things when I wrap these up. Been awful busy for a guy on light duty. Lol. That’s 44 individual holsters of some fashion. 1 more ready to ship. And 5 that shipped out Saturday.

Holy Moly! I thought you just sold a few here and there through CFF!

Are you on Etsy or similar?
 
So what are you doing in your spare time?

Actually, I've been doing more fishing that normal. Finally got all of us kayaks and I drag the family out somewhere and I get to fish. Not as much as I would without this stuff, but more than I probably should. Even if it's just a couple hours. Unless you ask my wife, then all I do is holsters. lol

Prob'ly takin' the boys to the ice rink... :)

Nice leather, Chief. If no-one's suggested it, try a bag of frozen peas; they are flexible as well as cold.

Thanks. And ice down break have become a reality for now. Sit on ice, stitch holsters.

I've got stores on ebay and etsy. All but a few of those holsters are off etsy. A couple here. And one local. A couple demo .22 ammo wallets for revolvers to try and sell. I had like 51 orders on etsy when I shut it down before surgery. Got all but one of those started before surgery and started it today. Crazy thing is, 5 of those holsters are cross draws for the S&W X Frame. Etsy decided to advertise that holster and got it in front of the right people it looks like. This might be the best year I've ever had sales wise. And last week was by far the biggest week I've ever had. Sold more than I made at work last week.
