    Default Kydex projects

    Okay, I ordered a couple of sheets of kydex and some saddle leather with the intent of making an extra magazine holster and a sheath for my cop tool, and possibly reverse engineer a copy of my crossbreed supertuck for another pistol.

    Anyway, anyone ever have any experience working with kydex? hints? tips? projects? just trying to spark ideas here.

    I just got my new Crossbreed supertuck deluxe CC holster in a few days ago, and was looking at it, it may me realise how easy it would be to make my own stuff. I have an addiction to creating stuff, LOL
