Hi David,

The overall appearance looks great. Its a nice looking spur strap. Now for the nit pick. Only 2 things I saw and this is just my opinion. If I was to do those I would maybe make the planks run in the same direction between the circle part and the main body. The only other thing I could pick out was the border around the circle on the billet side is not even. The circle looked perfectly round. Nice job there but I think it would look better if you followed the contour of the strap and keep the borders even. Again this is just my opinion and you are doing good work. Keep it up.
