Pre-Concho

~^~ HOME MADE CONHCOS ~^~

Polishing--> Doming --> Soldering --> Finish

I'm thinking of putting a tutorial together on how you can make your own coin conchos.

Adorments should be the one area where creativity and imaginative designs flourish. And yet Conchos have always been an underserved segment in my opinion (ditto buckles -excep: Ohio Bag)

• Selection - narrow breadth
  
• New Designs - few and slow
  
• Quality - low-to-poor (some exceptions)
  
• Price - high-to-ridiculous (some exceptions)

If you already own soldering iron and soldering suppllies, your setup cost would just be the doming block set (Harbor Freight $50). If you're starting from scratch $100- $150 depending how much you spend on the solderinig iron $25 - $75,
