  1. http://www.exoticleather.biz/wholesale/ I can't vouch for their wholesale side of things but probably worth sending them an email about the wholesale price of toad hides.
  2. http://springfieldleather.com/search?keywords=toad Just about every color out there of toad at average cost http://toadshop.com/48-cane-toad-skin.html Cheap but only one color

  6. They are called English Girth Buckles. Only place I can find that exact one is at the link below. Good luck getting them ordered http://www.domvet.com/pharmvet/buckle.html Stainless steel lost wax with roller No. 19151 1"
  7. Very nice Can I order more teeth if I beat them all to hell overtime?
  8. A pattern would have been lovely......I just folded paper and drew it out until I was comfortable enough to invest that much material. From start to finish, I would say it took around 30 hours. Most of that was spent between stages figuring out the best way to proceed. I could potentially shave half that time off if I build a second one.
  9. The body is 8oz water buffalo leather and most of the straps are 11oz Hermann Oak.
  10. http://www.ebay.com/itm/4-Nickel-Plated-Steel-Double-Tongue-Roller-Buckle-/121575168020?var=&hash=item1c4e71d814:m:mxqTnmOojpYY67R9xOqtwWA Not sure what quality you are looking for but this will get you going without a huge minimum order.
  11. Thank you!
  12. My own pet peeve really....The belt slides in and out so it can be ran either way depending on which you prefer. I should probably start taking photos with them running down now that you mention it. I like to bring the excess belt over the top and tuck them in towards me. I usually have various items inside the blanket roll. This allows me to take things in/out then adjust the belt without having to take it completely off or leave a bunch dangling underneath.
  13. Thanks! I used 9oz Crazy Horse leather to make the belt. I really enjoy working with that stuff. Posting picture that kind of shows the back part
