Thanks BT, I was wondering how you formed the kydex so it was flat around the edges. Plywood was an idea I was tossing around but I wasn't sure if the kydex would pick up the wood grain. I did find the YouTube videos helpful. I may try the vacuum bag idea with my shop vac. I would like to mimic a CrossBreed for my 1066. How are those belt clips working out? Do they keep a tight hold during the draw?
