Bmoz Report post Posted April 9, 2009 This is the first belt I have done that I would consider wearable. I think I only had to invest about a thousand dollars in tools and leather to get to this point. At this rate I will be able to make a great wallet for a little less than 50 grand LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tonyc1 Report post Posted April 9, 2009 42 years ago I was a care free plant operator earning very good money and then I needed to get something repaired for our horse shows. I went to the local saddler and he was too busy to fix it and he said "I'll show you how to fix it yourself" and then it just grew and grew from there. Now I have to try and make money working for myself and have a lot of money tied up in gear to make the job easier and now I still look for more items. I should have learned by now that enough is enough! Tony. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Willbert Report post Posted April 9, 2009 Congrats. I feel your pain. I took a ten dollar bill and taped it above my leather tools so I can remember what money looks like. Seriously though, nice looking belt. My first belt wasn't very good at all. But I enjoyed the process and wear it with jeans. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
