Looking for quality 12 to 14 oz belt blanks e.g. Herman Oak or similar from U.S. supplier. Minimum length of 55",

It ain't HO . . .  but I've never had much more than a small quibble about the sides I've purchased thru Tandy.

Granted . . .  I don't order them on line . . .  I go in . . .  start pulling and inspecting sides with my dial caliper and my two good eyes.

It has taken a good half hour in the past . . .   but that side of leather I walk out with tucked under my arm . . . it does the job and then some.

May God bless,

Dwight

Why not just buy a side of Hermann oak saddle skirting & cut your own belt blanks.

I don't want to buy a side because I only want to make this one belt, for myself. I am about at the end of my leather "career" and do not want to stockpile any leather.

I have a Tandy handy and could layer two of their blanks but I do not have a sewing machine.

I said HO because if I am ordering sight-unseen. I want good leather and HO takes some guess-work out of the equation.

Thanks guys.
