  1. I am very new to leatherworking and have begun to use it in the jewelry I create. I would like to make a riveted bracelet out of 5- or 10-mm flat braided leather but am unsure how to finish off those spread-out ends. I have three different ideas: 1. Use one of those toothed ends. Problem: can't find them without a loop at the fold of the metal 2. Find a very long toothed end and cut it to avoid the loop. Problem: a lot of work and the possibility of an ugly piece of metal as a result 3. Trim the ends into ovals and coat them with SuperGlue or something similar. Problem: might not work, and/or might be uncomfortable for the wearer I could just wing it, but I don't know how durable any of my solutions would be and I don't want to create an unhappy customer by selling a substandard piece. Does anyone have experience in this area? Thank you.
