B shift Report post Posted February 27, 2016 New 4 inch weightlifting belt I made for myself. Nothing fancy. Not sure why my photo is upside down Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken G Report post Posted February 27, 2016 Looks good. If you you wear it upside down you will be able to look down and read your name. A lot of my pictures taken with my phone will post on FB upside down. I googled it once and it has something to do with the phone's software and auto rotation or something beyond me. I'll just go back to using a camera. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JerseyFirefighter Report post Posted February 29, 2016 Looks good. Any other specs? Leather weight used? It looks like two pieces flipped grain side on both sides and sewn up. I want to make one of my own but I am toiling between liner material or just grain ends. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B shift Report post Posted February 29, 2016 I got the buckle from weaver, the outside is 9-10oz precut strap leather from zack white, the inside is an old piece of what I would guess to be 14-15 oz leather. I really don't know for sure because I've had it for years. Yes it's sewn smooth side out on both sides. I didn't want a liner because I wanted it to be as hard and stiff as possible. I even played around with the idea of adding a third layer. Disclaimer I did not sew it, I was having trouble getting threw the older piece of leather so I took it to a guy for stitching. I should have put that in the original post. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
