Rattlesnake Belt ( In Progress)

Recommended Posts

Been working on a couple of belts for my Dad and I this weekend, He picked the skins up at a rattlesnake festival down in Florida about a month or two ago. I have added a couple of pictures of the progress made this weekend, I am doing a double stitch on the one in the picture, but does anyone have another way or another option then the route i am taking on keeping the skin in place. Thoughts would be appreciated.

Finished a rattlesnake belt up to give away for a door prize to a Cancer Foundation golf outing. I hope some one will like it there, it is a little different from your average flash light.lol

How did the edges finish out with burnishing? Just curious, I am thinking about doing one but was going to do an inlay so I did not have to try to finish the skin edge. Yours came out great by the way.

What did you use to finish the belt? I like the glossy sheen. Also, I do have another tip...Try Crown with Pepsi... ;)
