Members RedLeatherPanda Posted February 20, 2013 Members Report Posted February 20, 2013 I'm fairly new to the whole craft, as I only made a couple of wrist cuffs and just now a small bracelet for a tool test. Everything I have is brand new, and works like a dream. Which is a large change from back when all I had was a box cutter and a hammer. Anywho, I am still new to a few things, and was hoping maybe someone could explain how to install a Double Roller Buckle? It's for a collar, not a belt, but I guess it would matter. It seems simple, but the dual prongs are throwing me off. Any help would be appreciated. And I do hope to begin selling my works once I'm actually able to do all the fun parts besides cutting. Can cut all day, but I can't seem to burnish/slick, skive, or really much else yet. All the fun is in learning though. But yeah, if anyone could explain that, that'd be VERY appriciated. ~RedLetherPanda Quote
dirtclod Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 Do you have a bag punch ? If you do get a piece of poster board or something like that measure the width of the buckle and the tongues mark that on your poster board and punch them out. Try your buckle to see how it fits and if it does mark on your leather with your pattern that you made. Quote I'm old enough to know that i don't know everything.
Members RedLeatherPanda Posted February 20, 2013 Author Members Report Posted February 20, 2013 Ooooh, that makes sense. I don't have any poster board, but I have a lot of paper and cardboard. I'll see if I can jury-rig something. Quote
