Members shooter55 Posted April 4, 2013 Members Report Posted April 4, 2013 for SID. Customer requested this for his pet. Actually SID's a French Mastiff with a 27" neck. Not too blingy, and stout as a tank. Have a floating keeper that I didn't put on, but available if he needs it. Look for him pulling the Budweiser Wagon.........(kidding) Whatcha think? Quote
Members Jazznow Posted April 4, 2013 Members Report Posted April 4, 2013 Nice one. I like the idea to stamp the name on a separate piece of leather and rivet it on. This could be a good solution for producing several collars to sell that you can still personalize. Quote

Thought it would be way too much if I just put it on top. 3 layers there as it is. Quote
Members shooter55 Posted April 4, 2013 Author Members Report Posted April 4, 2013 Very solid looking, nice work! Thanks TR. Quote
Members Mijo Posted April 4, 2013 Members Report Posted April 4, 2013 Looks tough as nails, your finish on the edges look real good too. Quote

The double layer of 9 oz. was tough to round and could have done a little better if my burnisher was a little bigger. I used Bearmans Cocobolo Dremel tool. Canlt tell you how much it has helped me improve doing edges. Thanks for the compliment. Quote
Members Mijo Posted April 5, 2013 Members Report Posted April 5, 2013 I have those same dremel tools, only mine are from Spinner before he turned production of them over to Bearman. I agree, they also helped improve the look of my edges and reduced the amount of time it takes. Quote
Members DoubleC Posted April 5, 2013 Members Report Posted April 5, 2013 I've done two collars for big dogs, and both are holding up well. I like you name inset. Is that stamped and painted or concho type letters? Very nice job either way. Cheryl Quote http://www.etsy.com/shop/DoubleCCowgirl

Thanks for the compliment Quote
