Members DS STRAPS Posted October 23, 2014 Members Report Posted October 23, 2014 Thanks! I've always hated making tapered watch straps, should go easier now Quote https://www.facebook.com/dswatchstraps
Members Gregspitz Posted October 23, 2014 Author Members Report Posted October 23, 2014 the taper is always tricky...now it should be easy I have clicker dies ordered for these and can't wait to get clicking.. I will have a weaver manual clicker press soon as well..... Quote Greg Spitz MD,FACS Custom Watch Straps 922Leather Gregspitz@922Leather.com
Members Gregspitz Posted October 25, 2014 Author Members Report Posted October 25, 2014 I made a mistake not asking for the most common watch strap size. Would it be hard to make a 20mm tapering to 18 mm strap just like the ones you made last week. What program did you use? I could try to do it myself. Sorry but I didn't know that the die maker would not alter anything that you send them. Thanks in advance for your consideration.

Members tboyce Posted October 25, 2014 Members Report Posted October 25, 2014 Not a problem. The program I use is at the office. I'll upload it Monday Morning Quote

Members Gregspitz Posted October 30, 2014 Author Members Report Posted October 30, 2014 its Tom that gets all the credit...I just gave some measurements...he worked hard on this and everyone should appreciate it.. these will make nice tapered straps that are not easy to come by! PS..my diemaker texas custom dies did BLESS the drawings saying all the lines were smooth and plotted well to make the dies.. so there!

Members tboyce Posted October 30, 2014 Members Report Posted October 30, 2014 Are they giving you a volume discount? based on my previous quotes from them that's about 360 bucks worth of dies being cut Quote
Members Gregspitz Posted October 30, 2014 Author Members Report Posted October 30, 2014 Is that customary? Quote Greg Spitz MD,FACS Custom Watch Straps 922Leather Gregspitz@922Leather.com
