Members ruinbliss Posted July 1, 2016 Members Report Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) Went online and searched under various quarries and was unable to find any weather belt blank that was ready to tool for stain and perhaps put some holes in for the size adjustment But that was what I was looking for and was unable to find it, all I did find is cheap leather a low-quality or a product that simply didn't mention the weight at all. So to be clear, I'm looking for a full grain natural cowhide belt blank that is 44" long and 1 1/2 inches wide This will be my first belt or leather project so I would like to start out with a blank that has the tongue cut out as well as the snaps put on and probably will buy a couple of straps or collars that hold the belt in place, just to make it as easy as possible To just focus on a few skills to develop for my first couple of belts. I would like the leather to be veg tanned leather thank you all in advance Edited July 1, 2016 by ruinbliss Quote
