Members LeftLane Leather Posted Monday at 10:14 PM Members Report Posted Monday at 10:14 PM (edited) I have been into leather crafting for a few years now but only recently got into belts. Started out mainly making knife sheaths and holsters. I have cranked out a couple of belts with standard basket weave patterns. This is my first attempt at tooling in a pattern. I got this pattern from Joe Meling from twentythreeplus.com. I am extremely happy with the outcome. I need to work on my decorative cuts but all in all I thing it turned out exactly how I saw it in my mind. Made it for a buddy of mine I grew up with whose dad use to do leather work making belts and the like. Just thought I would share.

PastorBob Posted Tuesday at 12:48 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 12:48 PM Great job! that looks fantastic. I also like the patterns going over the edge. Makes it look like it is sitting on top of the belt. Quote In God's Grace, Pastor Bob "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8 www.PastorBobLeather.com YouTube Channel

Members dikman Posted Tuesday at 09:24 PM Members Report Posted Tuesday at 09:24 PM Very impressive, first time I've seen the pattern extended right to the end with the buckle tongue holes through it.
