  1. it might be a bit late to post this, but I am making one as well. I found that Michaels art supply or most other craft shops carry 1/8" plywood 12"x24". I'm personally using this as my base. And Stohlman's books on cases are very useful. Did you ever make one? How did it turn out?
  2. Thank you Cyrex.
  3. I love the cutout work with the snake skin. that is very slick looking... nice attention to detail too. I like it. Sorry to hear that it's a bit too thick to for the pants loop. Maybe try skeiving (sp?) for the edges/ends? Keep in mind I'm not real familiar with this style of belt (or any belt at that). I'm just throwing my 2 cents in... (been reading a lot of Al Stohlman's books lately. ) Really beautiful work! Heck I'd just make new bigger belt loops on my pants so I could wear something so pretty.
  4. I'm sorry about your bracers. On the other hand this was a fantastic thread! I just learned so much from the above comments about whether to use de-glazer or not and the different strengths depending on what you use. I might go and try and make some test pieces just so I will have a good idea when it does happen to me! Not that I'm saying it will, but better to be armed than not. Like I said this is a great thread. And I am truly sorry about your bracers.
