Posted by Nick Arsenault on June 9, 2009

so far ive made an mp3 player mount for my truck (glued a spring clamp to it so it dosent move on me), a butterfly knife and pocket knife neck holster, and a neck holster for my uzi tactical thrower (didnt come out half bad considering i didnt leave enouf room for the screws... so i sow'ed it...lol)

You can make a press with some camping mats and plywood I've never tried but some say it works well.

i had some foam blocks that were dense enough to use for a press but the heat from the kydex melted it to my projects...

you could use a file, but don't use an aggressive one use like a metal (a file used for metal)
