Just bought some Kydex, some Chicago Screws, and A heatgun and I want to try my hand at sheath making. I have a design in my head for an IWB folder carrier
It seems there are a couple schools of thought, some people like to use a foam lined "press" others like to hand fourm the kydex, should I make or buy a Press or should I try hand forming first?
Also What temp works best for kydex, the gun I bought has many settings?
Lastly, Can I use strictly Chicago Screws, or do I need Rivets and a press?
