Members Dwight Posted January 2, 2015 Members Report Posted January 2, 2015 I don't do a lot of stamping on my gun belts I make, . . . most folks want em plain and simple (don't make me mad either). BUT, . . . when I do have to do one, . . . everything else is done but the staining and finishing. It's glued, screwed, buckled, punched, sewed, . . . Reason is simple: that is the part I'm confident in, . . . the stamping is the part I cannot afford to screw up with one of the other processes. If it has to be stamped, . . . I do it then, . . . because it forces me to take my time, . . . be careful, . . . not "mess up a good thing". But, . . . that's just me and my way, . . . May God bless, Dwight Quote If you can breathe, . . . thank God. If you can read, . . . thank a teacher. If you are reading this in English, . . . thank a veteran. www.dwightsgunleather.com
splinters Posted June 8, 2015 Report Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) Jameson, I was going to start a thread asking the same type of questions but on finding yours I decided not to. I would like to ask one more question though and hope you don't mind.Do you soak the buckle end of the belt placing something similar in size to the buckle axle between the fold of the damp belt and leaving to dry to avoid cracking the leather?Thanks. P.S. One more question.... do you case the leather before cutting the stitching groove? Edited June 8, 2015 by splinters Quote
