New to the site and looking to up my post count ultimately. But I do some decent leatherwork and was wondering if there would be any interest in custom leather rifle slings ? Tooled etc.
Also, I’m a mold builder by trade. Haven’t considered until recently the fact I can fairly easily design and build molds for pouring at home. Thanks for reading and helping me get my posts up lol. 🍻

Pellet pouch would be awesome!

Nice looking work. Can you show me what kind of molds you're making? For metal? Latex? Injection? ;-)

Plastic injection molds are what i build for the boss man, but I'm thinking there may be a market for large caliber molds for enthusiast's wanting to pour their own lead. Now that i think it through a bit i highly doubt my prices would be competitive with any sort of production shop. guess i need to research more first lol.

I believe that AoA sells at least one leather pellet pouch, try there? Also, there is a leather pouch made in the UK that has been around for a long time, but I believe that the proprietor has passed and not sure of the sales now? Wilkins is the name. Maybe incorporate some sort of a soft leather pouch that has a snap closure, belt attachment, or string for wearing around the neck?
Just Google leather pellet holder and a plethora will show up.

I just recently bought a Wilkins pouch, very nice but could be improved. While the snap closure nice but I rather go magnetic so I can open with one hand and closes automatically because my memory is only pointed down hill going forward.

Did this turn into anything? I have a Wilkins I've just begun to use but it could use some improvements and a magnetic closure would be one of them.
Another would some sort of flat back that sat against your body to keep the pouch from rolling around when moving about. I often find my backwards.
