Thought I'd try my hand at some leather work. I couldn't find my leather sewing awl or hole punch. I had picked up a bag of rivets and some clips a couple of weekends ago at the Tandy leather store, so I ended up just riveting all of it instead.
It's a little over sized. So I'm thinking about giving it a really quick boil to shrink it and stiffen it a bit. Anyone had any luck doing this? Or should I just water soak it (cold) and shape it that way?
I will be replacing the clips with "J" clips, as the ones I used don't hold the holster on my belt well enough when drawing.
