Sheridan Belt

[BarryS]

Well everyone this belt is the latest belt that I have finished. It was for a friends wife and he wanted it to be oiled and antiqued. The belt is and 1 1/4" and the pattern is one that I got from Clint Fay the last time I was up to Sheridan to see him. He told me that it was a pattern that he doesn't use very much anymore and that it was popular in the 70's. I don't know about you but I think it is awesome and we need to see some more of the older patterns. Retro is always better in my opinion. One thing that I am not really sure about is how I ended the carving toward the tip, but is the only thing that I drew that looked half ways decent. However, she likes it very much and I myself have just started to carve this pattern on a belt for myself. I hope that it comes out as decent as this one did. Please let me know what you think.

Thanx,

Barry
