Got tired of belt holes not being in a straight line.

That looks handy, and I bet it wasn't an expensive fence to build ;-)

If you attach a ruler to the fence, with the zero in line with the centre of the punch, you can easily space your holes too. Let's say your hole spacing is 1.5". Punch the first hole, slide the belt so the hole is level with the 1.5" mark, then punch again... Rinse and repeat!

Exactly how I have mine set up.

I don't have a problem with the round holes, but the ovals are a challenge. I've made a template from leather to help, but it's still slightly "ambiguous".

So much leather...so little time.

Thanks Matt sounds like a good ideal. Yes the oval holes are a little more difficult.

If my eyes were a little younger I am sure it wouldn't have been an issue to begin with? LOL

I wouldn't know, it's been SOME TIME since was "a little younger". But, on the other hand...retirement ROCKS!!! I've been puttering around in the leather shop since the first of the year. I'm okay with that!
