Members DwightT Posted April 20, 2023 Author Members Report Posted April 20, 2023 @Fraulein - here is the belt that gave me the idea for the faux inlay: https://twentythreeplus.com/products/three-piece-look-alike-belt The belt was carved out of a single piece of leather in such a way to look like it has over-laid pieces. A friend of mine showed me that belt and his attempt at the process, and I thought it might work for this inlay as well. Like I said mine turned out OK, but I think I can do better. /dwight Quote
