Members Red Cent Posted February 15, 2014 Members Report Posted February 15, 2014 The holes are as nice as I have ever seen. How do you get such a clean hole? Those are really high end belts you bought somewhere, right? Quote https://www.facebook.com/redcentcustomleather?ref=bookmarks http://www.redcentcustomleather.com/
Members Toolster Posted February 15, 2014 Members Report Posted February 15, 2014 What machine/thread size did you use? Looks great, just wondering.... Quote JW My sewing machines (until I buy another one): Cowboy CB3200 Cowboy CB0797
Members Ran Posted February 20, 2014 Members Report Posted February 20, 2014 Great looking belts, CT! Quote
Members mccottie Posted February 20, 2014 Members Report Posted February 20, 2014 Awsome looking belts. How do you do your burnish edge. It is very well done. I did some research on the needle tip and found Campbell - Bosworth has a chart which explains the various needle tips. Yours are LR which is an angled tip giving the look of an awl hole. Here is the link to the needle info : http://www.campbell-bosworth.com/supply/needles.html Great work Quote
Members Trevor Posted February 20, 2014 Members Report Posted February 20, 2014 Nice belts. Tell me, did you use a light box to take the pictures with? if so whats your configuration and what gear do you have. Many thanks TRK Quote "Every Day Above Ground Is Good"
IngleGunLeather Posted February 23, 2014 Author Report Posted February 23, 2014 Please forgive me for any delayed responses. I'm currently on the other side of the world kicking sand. Red Cent, thank you for the compliment. I dampen the area to be punched then I smack my oval punch with a dead blow hammer. Toolster, thanks for the compliment. I use a Cobra class 4 with 207 top n bottom. On one of the previous pages I have a photo of the needles used if you need that. Ran, thanks for the compliment. Mccottie, thanks for the compliment and info on the needles. I was experimenting with my burnishing at the time. The old tried and true method I use is Bob Park's method. I had just received a wood burnisher for my drill press and I probably used that some too. I prefer Bob Parks method, but is more time consuming. Trevor, thanks for the compliment. I do use a light box. For the life of me I can't remember the brand though. But its one that's made of vinyl and collapses into a nice little round carry bad. I also have side lamps and an over head lamp. I use a Canon G 12 camera on a tripod. If I was home I'd be able to give you more info. Quote Ingle Gun leather
