Imapeopleperson Report post Posted March 18, 2013 Been working on a couple of belts for my Dad and I this weekend, He picked the skins up at a rattlesnake festival down in Florida about a month or two ago. I have added a couple of pictures of the progress made this weekend, I am doing a double stitch on the one in the picture, but does anyone have another way or another option then the route i am taking on keeping the skin in place. Thoughts would be appreciated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

David8386 Report post Posted March 22, 2013 How did the edges finish out with burnishing? Just curious, I am thinking about doing one but was going to do an inlay so I did not have to try to finish the skin edge. Yours came out great by the way.

Imapeopleperson Report post Posted April 2, 2013 The edges worked out well, i just made sure they was plenty of contact cement on the edges. and thanks for the comment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yetiusmc Report post Posted June 21, 2013 What did you use to finish the belt? I like the glossy sheen. Also, I do have another tip...Try Crown with Pepsi... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
