Nice job. Can I ask what the impression between the stitching and carving is? 

I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with.

Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day.

From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Sewing machine impressions, they are lighter than they look in the picture.

Oh, I thought you were making a pattern with a beveler. (Newbie here).

Hello,  

I'm on the hunt for a square neck Dobro strap preferably one that can be personalized.  This has proven to be a very difficult task. I would love a handmade one, but at this point I’m open to any options.  
 

Thanks in advance!

The last post in this thread is 8 years ago.  Old thread.  Look in the patterns forum too, might be something there.

Hello.  I can make the strap as shown above, except that it wouldn't be tooled.  I would use bridle leather and can add decorative stitching.  Below is an example of a simple guitar strap in bridle leather.  My business contact information and other examples of my work are on my FB page for Bridle-Wise Leatherworks if you would like to discuss price and options for color, hardware, adjustability, etc.
