Made First Belt

[Allan1972]

What do you guys think, this is my first belt(actually the strap blank in my Tandy beginners kit)?

I am new to leather work, started doing a few guitar straps before this belt.

Looks like a fine job, Allan.

Ha, you started with one of the most work intensive patterns you could possibly pick. Good for you, and it's quite cool. I like the rusty survivor-of-the-zombie-apocalypse look.

[Allan1972]

Thanks guys.

Monica, you made me laugh with your description of my finish(I was going for rustic).

I like your new belt, I The belt looks strong, for strength but also for design. Good Job.

Very good for a first belt, I'm impressed. Not sure if I'm down with the masonic symbol on the belt.

[Allan1972]

Same here on the Masonic symbols but my uncle is a mason and he likes it:)

You did a great job. After tooling your design, try using a modeling spoon to Clean up the tooling. Works great, looks extra clean and increases the market value if you choose to sell them
