Hey Rob! Just spending a lazy Saturday getting caught up on your videos, had shoulder surgery last week and I’m really enjoying passing the time watching them. After watching the Big Texas holsters I just ordered one for my Wrangler! Thanks for all your great videos!
Jeffrey I hope you get to feeling better soon from the shoulder surgery. I'm glad you're enjoy watching my videos. That's the whole reason I make them. Thank you my friend.
The holsters look great! There is a product that Tandy sells (Fiebing brand) called Resolene, it's an acrylic sealer. You might try that as well and get a nice finish and a stiffness too.
Two questions if you've got the time. When I converted my Colt Police Positive to fit my Bearcat I repeated the hot water process twice because I was getting so much tobacco tar out. Now I'm afraid I've got it too dry. It's an old holster and the strap is cracking. What oil might I add to put a little back in. Also where do you buy Big Texas holsters. I've got a Single Ten that I'm wanting to start carrying. Appreciate it.
Neets foot oil, or saddle soap and Big Texas leather holsters are sold on Etsy. It's a one man operation so John will make a bunch sell them all out and shut down store to make more. So if it says temporarily on a break just keep checking back.
Too bad you didnt explain wet molding...did you just make it wet, did you use something, or just water, did you dry it in the oven or just on your table?...
I know Marc Thomas from several RUclips Podcasts. Great guy.
You're the man, Rob!
Nah I just try to help people
Those look great! You would never know those haven't been broken in and formed over for many months. 😎
Yeah it's a pretty effective way to make your holster fit your firearm like a glove. Thanks for watching
Impressive! Always have a hard time looking for that perfect holster, now if I find one thats not a perfect fit, I'm dunking it in the hot water!!
Frank a little hot water does wonders, I've done this many times over the years. Thanks for watching

Thanks Marc I'll have to check that out. Thanks for watching
Great tutorial , been doing something similar for years. Used the sun for drying.
Yes in the summertime I usually lay them out on the deck in the Sun or in a window frame. Thanks for watching the video

Just warm water and put the gun in it wrapped in foil or Saran wrap. And let it air dry
You showed us nothing about hardening the holsters
The use of the warm to hot water does the Harding hotter the water the harder the leather.
