jarrydparr Report post Posted April 28, 2014 Hi all , I last posted on here ages ago and thanks to this site and members I went away and created a beautiful wrestling belt strap that I am so proud of . I've added two photos the first . The second to pictures I can't figure out the technique I've also attached a picture of a belt that is done by someone else and I can't figure out how the depth and raised pushed up type look is done . It can be seen around the edge of the strap around the ww logo and the tip of the belt and the curve design on the last picture Help would be awesome thank you in advance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Halitech Report post Posted April 28, 2014 I could be wrong as the angle isn't the best to see it but to me, it looks like they simply beveled it away from the raised part and the "raised" part is just the normal thickness of the leather Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jarrydparr Report post Posted April 28, 2014 Thank you for the reply halitech can you please post a pic of what you call a beveler because in Australia it is completely different . Here are more pics of what I'm trying to achieve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jarrydparr Report post Posted April 28, 2014 Few more pics of the cool slopped look I'm going for and how is the design done on top of the snap box ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Halitech Report post Posted April 28, 2014 by beveler I mean the beveler stamp, not an edge beveler, sorry, should have clarified that. https://www.tandyleatherfactory.ca/en-cad/home/department/6060-00.aspx basically draw the line where you want it then use the stamp to push down the edge. Probably want to use your swivel knife to cut the line as well to get a better edge. Of course, I could be completely off but that's what it looks like to me https://www.dropbox.com/s/l7nbrgsqyjg6iba/20140428_101931.jpg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Troy Burch Report post Posted April 28, 2014 That's just one of several different styles of a camouflage stamp. You can find it anywhere leather tools are sold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oltoot Report post Posted April 29, 2014 The long, smooth lines were done by first cutting with a swivel knife and then using a smooth push beveler, corners, curves etc with regular smooth stamping type bevelers. Both sides of the cut were treated the same to give that 'raised' look. The third picture of the first set was done by first running the push beveler on the lines, then the border stamp, then a checkered beveler to finish off.
