making pouches/holsters

[Jango 5204]

I was able to get to a Tandy shop in person today. Man, there is a bunch of stuff there! I almost bought the whole cow for $35, but my total was about $150 after you buy snaps, belt blanks, tools to punch holes and all that other stuff.

Before I start cutting I would appreciate any help or suggestions. I've read as many posts as my eyes will allow. I'm mainly looking for some type of guidance on the shape & size (length) of the holsters. I thought I had seen a tutorial on the making of the ammo pouches awhile back, but couldn't find it.

I've heard some people say 4 inches on the pouches. Is that to scale for someone 6 ft tall? Any and all commments are needed. I'll wait about about a weeks before I start getting elbow deep in it. Thanks.

YES! That picture tutorial was exactly what I was looking for. I couldn't find it.

Swchick link didn't work. Couldn't find a template on the website

It's been broken for awhile. Maybe if we send her flowers, she will repost it.

No such templates exist so far. Try scaling from photos or toys to match your height & just go for it. The amazing work you have seen on this board was created just that way.
