Dragonfly42 Report post Posted September 3, 2017 Still working on tidying up the belt but the wife's been screaming for one since I started this experiment. Here's today's results. I know the arrow behind the buckle is off and I'm not happy but it's too late now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm still experimenting so they probably are hahahhahahahaha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
plinkercases Report post Posted September 3, 2017 the veiners look ok but the cut angle just looks off to eye. crosses the veiner and perhaps shouldn't? I love the depth you are getting. What weight leather fro the belt? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alpha2 Report post Posted September 3, 2017 Okay, I make belts, and holsters, etc., but I didn't notice the arrow being off a bit. Nobody else will notice it either. I was shooting a trap tournament in 99 degree weather today, though, so I may be just a bit off my game, but all I noticed was the great backgrounding and that there was a butterfly! I have to say, I haven't done one of those yet! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
