    I've been making kydex holsters for a while now, quality is getting real good. Just looking to decrease the amount of time I spend producing them. Specifically the tine I spend measuring for eyelets. Anyone have a method they use to help them? Thanks

    Before the drill guides were available (and because I like doing stuff myself, hence building my own holsters) I laid out the holes on a piece of 1/4 thick bar stock and drilled them on my drill press. Made the holes the right size so my silver sharpie would fit through and I can mark them out nice and easy, as well as straight and consistent.
