Héhéhé tough thing when you build things that match your tastes..it's tough to sell them! ;)

very nice............I want a lacemaster....wish I could find a used one!!

I grant you : this lace maker costs literally an eye ...even more with shipping fees, customs....

BUT

this worthes TOTALLY the cost! ;)

i bought it before starting messing around with braiding => it was useful

but NOW i started braiding, i find it to be a "have to" => easier, quicker cheaper and you can make your own lace !

Hi Guys,

During vacations....i had a mind for "scientific tests" and i tried several other belts....

body : veg tanned leather

dyed black or brown

and same lacing on every of them but not always the same king of leather (and mark my word : lacemaker is fabulous :D )

but funny thing :

the braiding does not look the same on each of them !!!

several pics to come (not all finished yet ;)

So far, my favorite is still the very 1st one :D ....maybe i really going to keep it for myself ;)

this one , the braiding is done with pigskin

and by the way : I wish you all a terrific year 2013!

Hi Mike! ;)

This braiding comes from the "Encyclopedia of Rawhide and Leather Braiding" from Bruce Grant's(i can't remember who told me to buy it...but i thanks that person! neat advice!)

This book is a "must have" along with the Lacemaker :D

It's a big book (528 pages) , not fun at all (black and white) but FULL of a lot of different braiding styles with pictures to illustrate and written explanations (in english)

If i can go through that ...i guess that everybody can ;) (even my hubby who does not speak english can do something with the pictures only :D )

You can find that book on Amazon (not brand new) for a few bucks
