    freaking genius. I've been clamping thermoform all this time and now I'm heading to goodwill to find a vacuum sealer.

    Great video. But, I will stick with buying them from the two companies I’ve used for years. 👍🇺🇸

    I would have never thought of using a vacuum sealer.

    I went through the trouble of building a press and buying foam when I already had a sealer and could have done this. Awesome diy project man thanks for sharing

    DUDE.!!! Lol yes I absolutely never thought of using my Food Saver, I was researching the Foam and throwing together a press lol but not now. Thank you for doing this video my friend. Semper Fidelis

      Hell yeah, brother. I started doing the same thing before I thought that there must be an easier way. I found some instructions from someone else on how to do it but I felt like they were missing a few things. I'm glad it helped.

    Most practical holster-making video I have seen. Thank you! In the case of weapon lights, you might need to add some filler material to make the holster.

      You definitely should. I make all of my own and the ability to make them any shape to fit me is just awesome. If you have any questions or anything, let me know and I'll try to help out.

    If you have a laser, the price of a holster seems to go up drastically. Would you do anything differently if you were fitting for that like a popsicle stick or dowell underneath?

    Great in depth video! What is the wing for??

      So your belt will push the mag well end in toward your body. It isn't always necessary, it depends on the person and the pistol shape.

    Where do you get your Kydex and parts? I may have to give this a try!

    • @HowsItHappening
      @HowsItHappening  2 роки тому +1

      The kydex is from Amazon and the hooks and wings from Ali. They're dirt cheap on Ali but seem to be good quality. It just took forever to arrive.

    Hey man where did you buy the Kydex? Great video!

      This is where I get it from now. I think the sheet in this video was from Amazon, but holstersmith has way more options, and I think it turned out less expensive.

    Holy bed head! I hope you make enough money from this video to buy a hairbrush! Just kidding. Great video.

    • @HowsItHappening

      I just let it do what it wants, I won't have it long anyway. Besides, there's already a brush lost in there somewhere.
