Members SimonJester753 Posted October 30, 2010 Members Report Posted October 30, 2010 Beautiful work. One thing I'd worry about is the leash attachment ring. Make sure to use red lock-tite on the threads. From what I can see, you're using a threaded nut with prongs that bite into the leather to keep it from spinning. If the nut can't spin and the post that holds the ring does, it will unscrew. You may want to grind the prongs off so the nut will spin along with the post. Quote

I do use lock-tite (red) on those threads...i am not concerned about not spining just because the leash snap spins so that takes care of the "problem"..lol...Thanks ! Quote

King's X Posted November 14, 2010 Report Posted November 14, 2010 Do you worry about sweat or other water damage? Dye running? Quote Greetings from Central Texas! The Grain Side Up blog #TheGrainSideUp
Members buffalobill plus Ed D Posted November 21, 2010 Author Members Report Posted November 21, 2010 Do you worry about sweat or other water damage? Dye running? Dogs are sweating only thru their foot pads..same goes for cats.As far as water damage goes, i make sure i tell the owner to take the collar off when the dog goes in the water Quote
Members RooLeadGirl Posted December 6, 2010 Members Report Posted December 6, 2010 beautiful!!! my favorite is the first one. .. I too as a 7 dog owner however am not a fan of the leash attachment. D rings work best for me. my other concern is on the ones with the "towel holder" sorry thats all i could think to call it.... where do you put the dog tags? I know this is a decorative type collar but I am always sure to switch my dogs ID tags with every collar you never know what might happen! Quote

I know this is a decorative type collar but I am always sure to switch my dogs ID tags with every collar you never know what might happen! Hi there ! For dog tags i usually have a very small D ring set next to the buckle...some customers wants it ...most of them not...same goes for the "towel holder"..it's there because most (if not all) of the customers want to have it, instead of a D ring Here is a regular collar that has a D ring...2in wide, 2ply , stitched from one end to the other untitled.bmp Quote
Members buffalobill plus Ed D Posted December 6, 2010 Author Members Report Posted December 6, 2010 This is one way of attaching dog tags to some of my collars too... untitled.bmp Quote
Members RooLeadGirl Posted December 6, 2010 Members Report Posted December 6, 2010 LOVE! the mini D rings. Looks good! Ive wanted to get a collar for mine for a while but i've never found one that is exactly what I'm looking for.. My main problem with the leahter collars is that they seem very stiff and not soft at all. Especially on the inside. Quote
