Members YinTx Posted March 28, 2018 Members Report Posted March 28, 2018 Well, after a long hiatus, I got some parts and put the hardware in! So it is finally finished. For those that followed my post in "The Eagle has NOT landed..." this is the first figure carving I attempted, back in August of '17 if I remember correctly. Some things I wasn't happy with, others I really liked. Comments and suggestions welcome! I'll try to post a pic of the back...

bikermutt07 Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 It looks great. Quote 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.

I had an irrational fear of mauling a perfectly fine piece of leather for a long time. I happened to acquire a large stack of veg tan, helped me get over that quick, as I need to convert it into product! I have a fair sized pile of rejects tho...
