Looking good! Those long lines to carve aint particular fun but makes all the difference to a border freak like me.

Nice to hear you're on the go and get orders!

JBIRD, Nice work... Question- Do you use any backing when tooling? (Backing like tape, rubber-cemented cardboard, plexiglass...) Are you tooling the belt as it is?

On this belt I did not use a backing cased it then tooled on the stone I have not noticed very much stretch I made to size and it stayed to size.

I've found that contact paper (the kind of thing you line the inside of kitchen drawers with) is a good backing for tooling. It's cheap and comes in rolls big enough for just about any project. You can pick it up at Home Depot and the like.
