Thanks yall, I am making the final tweakins to my drawing now. I hope it turns out good. I have been watchin a ton of vids on youtube so I am sure I should do alright. I am going to pic up hinges for my DIY Kydex press today and I should everything by Tuesday.
You may want to consider that hinges will limit the compression (pressure) on that side of your press. And on the sheath, maybe add a rivet a little closer to the choil to to add retension pressure at the quillon. You're sure to enjoy your new hobby.
Peace
