Members Shane in Baton Rouge Posted June 6, 2011 Members Report Posted June 6, 2011 Hi Eric, Beautiful as usual. I just tried a double thickness gunbelt this weekend using weaver blanks. I had a similar wrinkling problem on the inside and the belt actually cracked on the outside after oiling and just sitting watching TV "working" the belt by hand to try to get it to be a little more flexible. I, like you put flesh to flesh. I wonder if a flesh to grain glue would work better to prevent the wrinkling. While working on this prototype, I skived the inner piece down to zero, and glued a piece of medium (about 1mm) thickness suede onto the backside of the tounge area. It actually worked out great right there. I am going to try a gunbelt with a full suede backing with a decent weight suede. Glue and full stitch. Ill post the results, but still welcome any guidance on the regular double thickness belt to prevent wrinkling and cracking. Quote
