Man those are really nice. Ofcourse youd have to buy two so you could wear one inside out to show off both sides lol.

Thanks for showing those to us Marlon....as usual, another "over the top" product by Peter! I have a question.....is the billet lining overlaid on top of the tooled lining to form an edge that can be burnished? I'm interested in how Peter constructed these.....

Thanks Marlon for sharing.

Beautiful! I always admire exotics, and the carving/coloring on the backs are really top notch!

Those belts are really awesome looking. I wish I had 1/2 the talent that Peter has. It is a goal worth reaching for!! I alway's love seeing his work posted.

Bob,

I've got an answer from Peter on your question:

...the lining leather is just one piece. I have cut the billet shape either end and beveled it with 'that' modeler tool...also beveled the black border that runs into this shape...it's just a nice way to frame the colored scrolls.

Peter...

"That" modeler tool he refers to is a modeler of his design. He does make them for sale if anyone wanted to know.

Thanks Marlon! I can see it, now that Peter explained it. The clue is that the "false" billet end is not stitched. He amazes me! BTW, I have one of the modelers...it's about the only modeler I use...

I've got one too! And I use it exclusively. I can bevel, smooth, round, emboss, and petal lift with it! Great tool.

Does he have a website that you can purchase them from and to get a look at one. Sounds interesting.

He does have a website, but you can't order online. You'll have to email him.

His email is linked in his website. Click here.
