Confederate Waist Belt

Very nice. Where did you source the buckle?

Dang, please post front and back pictures when  you attach the adjustable part of the buckle.  At least that looks like the Civil War version as opposed to the modern version.  I have various kinds of ways to attach the belt on the back of the cartridges, but I used leather that was too thick on the first one I'm working on.  Blockade Runner has a lot of that sort of thing.

Hi JW, Hanover Brass is where he got that one, Parsley Brass is also good.  I usually by Tim Parsley's stuff.
