alsleather Report post Posted March 20, 2011 This is a tutorial for a stamped belt using six stamps. After you have sized the belt draw a line on the center. Start stamping with a geometric stamp G9008-03 or a similar stamp. Always start from the end which the buckle holes will be punched (Billet End). The next stamp used is a veiner V406 which is stamped between the points of G9008-03. A border stamp D637 is stamped by filling in the center both sides. The next stamp is a figure carving stamp F922 which is stamped above D637. A seeder S932 is stamped between the veiner impressions. The last stamp is S360 stamped in the center of the pattern. This is the completed stamped belt. You can use a variety of stamps when stamping a design. Have fun stamping! Allan Scheiderer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Young Gun Report post Posted July 7, 2011 I'm currently dabbling in belt stamping myself, this was a great tutorial, as well as a very nice design. I will keep my eye out for any more tutorials you might post in the future!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrieForShort Report post Posted July 12, 2011 I'm just gearing up for stamping my first belt, and have been researching various patterns to give me ideas. It's nice to see the evolution and layering that you used for your tutorial. Thanks for sharing! I do have a non-stamping question, however. When you dyed the sample for the final photo were you just careful where you applied the dye/stain, or did you use a block over the stamped pattern and edges? Thanks for any insight. I'm VERY new, and I'm eager to learn! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm VERY new, and I'm eager to learn! Thank you for your nice comments! I applied Super Shene on the edge and the pattern with two coats. This was then left to dry for a few hours. Next a stain was applied overall with the stain only penetrating what was not finished. It did penetrate the stamp impressions. I hope this helped you.

BrieForShort Report post Posted July 29, 2011 That's exactly what I wanted to know! I've tried that technique once myself, and as I suspected I didn't let the Super Shene dry long enough. Thank you very much for your reply! It's very much appreciated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
41mag Report post Posted August 22, 2011 so, you don't moisten the leather prior to stamping? newby ? here, and I think I remember Dad wetting the leather first.......... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ferg Report post Posted August 22, 2011 You case the leather before stamping. If you are unfamiliar with that process there are many post concerning that. Bob Park (hidepounder) has one of the best explanations. ferg so, you don't moisten the leather prior to stamping? newby ? here, and I think I remember Dad wetting the leather first..........
