Nice work. They all look great! 

I got a question to ask? 

Do you ever make random belt lengths to sell at craft shows/ leather shows? 

& if so. What seems to be your hottest selling lengths?

Thanks.

I tried it once diesel . . . and almost never got rid of my "inventory" . . . at the  show . . . if it was the right size . . . wrong color . . . right color . .. wrong design . . . etc . . . 

Of these belts here . . . 42 was probably the average size.

Besides that . . . I very seldom make single layer belts.  Mine are for CCW . . . two layers . . . run from 0.180 to 0.240 thick . . . depending a lot on the chubbiness of the customer.  Those are just too expensive to make to make on "guesswork"

The shows I see . . . they guys selling belts . . . they  have basically about 48 inch belts . . . and when they measure the customer . . . cut off the buckle end to fit.  They get 30 to 40 out of each.  I'm just not in that market

May God bless,

Dwight

Thanks. Much appreciated. That is what I was wanting to know. 

I was going to make a few lined belts to sell, but was worried about exactly what you described. 

Thanks.

Beautiful Belts! 

Sorry, pressed the wrong button. Those belts look beautiful. Just How long did it take you to make all of them?
