I lead what some people would consider a pretty interesting life. But I have to say that, for me, I never in a million years thought I'd be part of a conversation on Darth Vaders cod piece. This is one for the books

Haha, I realise this is weird but I promise you there are a lot of people who know the whole Vader costume like some people know all the brush strokes on Mona Lisa.

These costumes are made in the 70's and are art. All the original Vader costumes are different between films and sometimes even between different scenes. They have a lot of flaws that add character.

Is there a way to make the "piping" without actually folding leather all the way through? I want to fold the leather to make piping but is there a way to remove the bulk so the folded leather is as thin as only one piece of leather?

Skive or split it down.

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.
