I don't have any work up yet, I am still a beginner. I have done a few belts, small wallets not too much lol. Thanks for the friend request!

I am from Langley, bc. I found this! Hope it helps http://www.tias.com/173/PictPage/3923804911.html Rkjw where are you from? Never mind I see lol I was on my phone it doesn't say location.

I would say you have to use an awl... That's just me

If dying dark I use neetsfoot oil 100%. If I need it lighter I use olive oil.

Are you in surrey, bc?

Mix it 50/50 with water and use sparingly. I usually do two or so coats of it.

It's very cute! Good job!

Wow amazing!

But some of the non dyed parts are on the front of the belt as well... I was going use black edge coat on the sides so not too worried about the dye there.

Thank you very much! Is there anything you would suggest to save this belt? Don't get me wrong I kinda like the look, looks a little aged. But I know the person I am making this belt for won't like it.

I should state I used fiebings oil dye.

Ok so for the past three or so projects (dog collars, now this belt) the dye is not taking very well in a few spots. This example is dip dyed, I beveled the edges, sanded then slicked them with fiebings saddle soap and water. Before dyeing I clean the leather, I have tried with just water and this belt I cleaned it with alcohol (50%). I have always done it the same way and I have not had this problem. Any ideas/suggestions? Thank you so much.

Thank you for the suggestions! Does Bruce have a website? I've found it! Thank you everyone

Thank you guys! I woulda bought them lol

I am sure it is but they look a little worse for wear. http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/van/for/4252803525.html Thank you!

Try clicking twice. Works for me. I'm on my phone and if I go to the full site I have to click twice and works just fine

I really like it!!!

Ouch! I was going to get it postage to B.C. is $40.95... Too rich for my blood.

Your work is amazing. Can I ask for a little more detail about how you did the lining? Was it pigskin? How did you fold it over? It looks like you folded and glued the edges down? Thank you!

I would like to join too
