Decided to try to carve a belt

[Froghunter]

Thanks to one of my wonderful friends...yes a member here....CECIL, I decided to try my hand at tooling a belt for myself.

I got the floral pattern out of the Lucky 8 Belt book that we sell. The tools were hand drawn as was my makers mark in place of a name.

I am very happy with the results, I think it turned out really good for my first attempt. Thanks to Cecil for giving me the courage to go at it! I see now that belts are probably my bane, as they are much more difficult to carve because of the space available. But I am sure that this won't be my last!!!

Let me know what you think!!!!

sorry about the pic quality, I think my camera is dyin'!

Froggie,

That looks really good. I'm a sucker for symetry and originality. The S & C are Civil War vintage, don't cha know. I'm not a bettin' man but if I were I'd, also, bet this isn't the last we'll see of Froghunter belts!!!

Happy Toolin' Brother Noble ,

I Love the pattern on that belt Froggie, and I think it came out great :-) (sorry about your camera)

Well, since we all love pictures.....Here is a scrap project. I needed a coodinating pouch for my multitool that matched the new belt....

This is what I came up with.

I know the lacing is terrible, I had a blow out on the left side, (Bad scrap) and had to repunch the holes on the inside. The flap is uneven and I didn't have enuf lace to do the multiple holes to make it close in better (literally had 1 3/4 inch left!)

But it serves the purpose, and since I am still a learning amatuer, I am happy with it!

what do ya think?
