Thank you. Love the content and your sponsored videos. You're a professional home owner and I respect your choices and products you use and test. PS. I almost bought a Harbor Frieght winch! Love the WARN. When's the WARN Stump vid?? 🤣👍👍

[@krissfemmpaws1029]

Hey Cody you forgot to post the holsters...

[@AnthonyNathanPhoto]

Where this could useful is if you need to conform to certain uniform standards and the holster needs to be a certain color for example security contractors and military. Also, you could use the excess material to wrap other pouches, etc.

[@justbob4774]

Please link to the manufacturer. I and many others will not use amazon, it's rarely the best price available anyways. Support real businesses.

[@spitz3389]

Do you have an updated link for the fabric? Link to Amazon doesn't seem to be working.

Looked up how to wrap a holster and stoked to see it was YOU that made a video. Im from Portland and you are someone I like and respect. Thanks

[@mattr3632]

Why not align the edges of the wrap with the open edge of the holster, leaving a bit of overhang, and then trim it off like the rest when you go around with the razor? Then you wouldn't have a seam at all. Regarding the ads, I prefer the sponsor spots over the random and annoying YT ads. Interesting idea. Not something I'm likely to do to my holster, but interesting to see how it's done.

[@mortem-tyrannis]

I was coming to say the same thing, but you beat me to it sir.

[@BattleChemist]

Agreed on all points. That said, you could design a bunch of holsters to match the fabric of your pants so that they blended in to that fabric as a form of social-camouflage.

[@SneakySolidSnake]

it is as you said. i would keep the few inches of overhang and glue them on the inside just past the screw holes. then when the glue starts to fail at the edges, the screws hold it from slowly unwinding completely.

[@littlejackalo5326]

I was going nuts watching him center the fabric on the side of the holster, instead of lining the edge of the fabric up to wrap around the holster. They made the holster with a single piece of Kydex, so why not do the same with the wrap. Ugggggh.

[@wobblysauce]

Yep, it isn't a cylinder... it has an open edge.

[@gjordan456]

This is the type of content that brought me to this channel many years ago, the ads don’t bother me!

[@kipcarroll5644]

I've used clear nail polish around the edges, too. Seems to work real well. Used it on my dirtbike's graphics edges, as well. Keeps those edges down real well. The sponsored ads you do are fine because of our common interests and we know the ones you chose are ones you use ! Glad to see you're feeling better. Prayers

[@wranglerstar]

Great tip,

[@maacseffort]

I think elimination of reflection is the main perk of wrapping the holster in fabric. This was super awesome. Glad to see you upright and active.

[@cat19649]

Feels better on skin imo. Kydex sticks sometimes when I sweat.

[@joshcampbell5947]

Glad to see you back! You don't realize how much you look forward to these videos until you aren't getting them everyday. Big fan of Trex arms as well!

[@CincinnatiDan]

Wranglerstar, count my vote in the “sponsored videos are OK with me” column. You are right… your sponsored ads generally reflect our common interests.

[@wranglerstar]

Thank you for the feedback.

[@ChrisdeHaan]

Agreed sponsored videos have all been common interests. They also are needed to help pay the bills. One cannot live on KZbin view revenue alone.

[@avpala2]

Heavy D sparks sponsored adds are like mini movie productions. It just works.

[@koduhkid]

Instantly recognized Rekieta's stream in the background as I have had my computer set up with it on in the background each day throughout the trial. By far the best coverage of the trial anywhere.

[@gautreauxsm]

Part of the benefit of wrapping a holster in this type of material is it cuts down on reflectivity since kydex can be kinda shiny. And noise reduction from a branch or something similar, instead of plastic is on cloth. I think both are minimal, but every bit counts sometimes. I prefer ads from content creators as opposed to the ones from KZbin.

[@bobmueller8192]

The closet pole trick is genius! And warming the glue first is definitely important. If the 77 glue is cold it won’t set and sprays out very clumpy/ bubbly. As far as the advertising on your channel, the more you can control the content the better!

[@phliptoutcool]

Glad you're well and you run whatever ads you want! Love you brother!

[@jesusl.4228]

great diy project. quick question, why even have a seam in the back? I think you can just wrap from end to end just like the sheet of kydex was folded and cut. not sure if i'm explaining that correctly :). glad you are feeling better.

[@MK-100x]

Was thinking the same thing. Since a kydex holster is basically a taco for your pistol, after the hardware is removed, you could just form another taco with the fabric and put the holster inside of it; and then cut the edges after the fabric has been fitted.

[@allencevans]

The reason I opened comments was to say this. Maybe there's a professional home owner reason... It does look great though. Not that I have a holster. Or a firearm.

[@jesusl.4228]

@@MK-100x exactly, a taco within a taco. no seam. glad i made at least some sense it was hard to explain. now i want tacos.

[@jesusl.4228]

​@@allencevans as a professional home owner myself i would have wrapped the firearm then wondered why it no longer fit in the holster lololol.

I don't OWN a gun (UK) and never will but I just love watching this guy. He seems to have ALL the toys and ALL the hobbies. I'm sure not ALL Americans have this much stuff in their lives but most you tubers seem to have tons of stuff. Boats, SUV's, Jet Skis, guns, tents, stoves, rods and reels, chain saws, welding gear, pressure cookers, mason jars, etc. etc. etc. I should move!

[@nigelwylie01]

I laughed when I read your comment Chris. I agree with so much of what you say. I also live in the UK, in the suburbs (like so many of us) and I prioritise space in my home over STUFF. But I still love watching others using the stuff I used to drool over owning. I have so much stuff, I can’t get enough space in my tiny workshop / storage spaces to use it properly 😂🤣. So I will go on giving my stuff away to friends until I can do what I really prioritise. Whatever that ends up being. Tough choices!

[@mrbluesky9891]

@@nigelwylie01 Thanks Nigel, I guess the Americans have more money than us?

[@nigelwylie01]

@@mrbluesky9891 it’s a very polarised society. Some do. Some are living in inescapable grinding poverty. Many are in suburbs like me. But I don’t suppose we watch the KZbin channels from cramped suburbia as much as the ones from those with spacious workshops or acres of land! Because it is such a breath of fresh air. Plus there is the complication of the different affects of poor health and wealth. But we’d better not go there. Not much inflames our American friends more than a discussion on healthcare!

[@ACDCRD]

Looks awesome Cody, next time I would recommend just wrapping the whole holster leaving both edges overhanging on the open side of the holster, (where the retention is) that way you will have no seam on the holster at all. Awesome video, I will be doing this to some of my stuff in the future.

[@Numl0k]

I would much rather see the ads that you record yourself, instead of the random KZbin ads. At the end of the day, you deserve to make a buck or three off of these videos. You put a lot of work into them, and you're sharing some great knowledge. I trust that you won't advertise anything that you don't believe in, because you're too good for that. Keep it up, Cody.

I really appreciate you uploading a lot of videos after a break, that means you care about us- your fans! Cheers!

[@purebloodanglochristian8207]

Looks good. Curious why you didn't simply align the seam with the kydex seam. Regarding ads, you do what you need to do, brother. Many of us use ad blockers, acquiring sponsors would be the better way to get ad revenue and not having to share it with a company that hates us is a bonus.

[@tomwilson3013]

Loctite works wonders to seal the edges instead of superglue

[@StephenShreds]

why did you create the scenario of having to cut a seam? you already had a seam in the back. Press the bent side in the middle of the fabric then just press it all in. once you have full coverage cut around the edges to clean it up then punch holes. then reassemble

[@dshanahan99]

Exactly what I was thinking... Feels like an extra step for nothing.

Awesome Job Brother!! Of course we all have our own way of doing things! At about 5:00 you spray the holster on the post away from the material. I would (and will) spray it over the material. The extra couldn't hurt! As far as ads I have NEVER had a video on your channel interrupted by an ad. My preferred browser has various ad blockers. If everyone would do their homework they also could watch you uninterrupted as well. It's really useful when you are sharing The Word. No one needs an ad in the middle of that to distract from your shared message. I don't mind your personal "ads" at all. I regard them as testimonials!

On all my appendix concealed carry holsters I do something similar on the backside of the holster that touches the skin except I super glue a medium thickness piece of leather. I cover the back in super glue press it tight and have the leather come up enough past the holster to rest against the back of the slide. It's makes for the most comfortable holsters.
