whinewine Report post Posted December 27, 2006 Has anyone a clue what a 'rope roll belt' is? Hidecrafters has a video on 'rope roll belt making' on sale for $5.00, & I'd like to know what this is exactly. If anyone has a picture, I'd like to see it. Thanks in advance.

ClayB Report post Posted December 27, 2006 (edited) I just got that video before Christmas. The rope roll is a kind of fancy laced edge on a belt. First the belt is laced with a piece of rope. The rope is then covered with a strip of upholstery leather. Then the final lace is laced over the upholstery leather and the rope. The technique is also sometimes done on the back of a saddle seat. I haven't made one, but it looks like the video does a pretty good job of explaining the process. Sorry, I dont have a picture of a belt. You can go to this site and see how looks (and is done) on a saddle. http://www.lewissaddleshop.com/Birth/birth_5.htm It is continued on the next page of the website.
