Making Chinks

Here is a video showing how I made myself a pair of custom chinks. As you can see, I made a few changes along the way. In the end, I'm happy with how they turned out, and I hope the video can encourage you to get started on a project you have been putting off. Enjoy the work and the good things you make. Good luck!

can I buy the pattern you used

[@flyingaoutfitters]

Yes. I'm pretty sure I purchased it off of Tandy's website. The packet actually has three different styles. Good luck!

You should tape the back of your leather before tooling it and it won’t get stretched out of shape packing tape works great or even painters tape

[@flyingaoutfitters]

Hey Jack, Thanks for the advice. I have actually figured that out since making the chinks. Really is a good tip though. It makes a big difference. Thanks again.

[@jackhill436]

Is that the Tandy leather pattern

[@flyingaoutfitters]

I can't remember for sure, but I think so. I'm happy with how they turned out.
