[QUOTE="TJay74, post: 1899910, member: 5857"] It is not hard to use, I put mine in the overn for a couple of minutes at 250° to get it very pliable and then mold it from there. Here is what I use at home: Thick foam (got mine from the place over by H&H for $10) gloves heat gun jigsaw dremel with cutoff wheel, cutting bit, sanding drums grease pencil pretty much it, I rough cut the shape out, then heat it up in the over and press in between 2 pieces of foam to get it formed. Then start working it down to the final shape. Then I use the heat gun to work on smaller areas in refining the shape. I will post a pic of the holster I made for my S&W Shield 40 later, needs to be refined some more but works great so far. [/QUOTE]
