Wow, I like this Steve. Thank you for sharing. I am getting ready to do a few belts also and needed inspiration. You did it. I love the colors. I am guessing handstitching. Looks good.

Yep, the old head is right. "1623" is a reference to marijuana decriminalization. And the belt is classy. Thanks, steveb!

What tool did you use for a backgrounder? Interesting concept design and neat at the same time.
