[QUOTE="M1380, post: 1765672, member: 18016"] I picked up two squares of smart foam from hobby lobby, glued it down to two pieces of cut plywood and used it for my kydex press. I use 4 clamps bought from harbor freight to keep it pressed together while the kydex cools around a knife / gun. Cheap and and it works. Bought my .08 kydex, and eyelets from knifekits.com. I use a vice to press my rivets using a knifekits eyelet flaring die. Tandy leather factory in Tulsa has eyelets, rivets, grommet setters, eyelet setters and scrap pieces of leather for making belt loops or larger pieces of leather to make a holster similar to crossbreed. I'll get some pictures up later of my setup. kydex: [url]http://www.knifekits.com/vcom/product_info.php?cPath=41_54_136&products_id=272[/url] eyelets for .08 kydex: [url]http://www.knifekits.com/vcom/product_info.php?cPath=41_56_416&products_id=658[/url] eyelet flaring die: [url]http://www.knifekits.com/vcom/product_info.php?cPath=41_57&products_id=633[/url] smart foam: [url]http://shop.hobbylobby.com/products/smart-foam-pad-983775/[/url] [url]http://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/en-usd/home/home.aspx[/url] [/QUOTE]
