MLGilbert Report post Posted March 6, 2020 Hey everyone, just finished up a belt for myself (at last) and figured I’d share it here! The tooled side is 7-8 oz and the liner is 4-5 oz, both HO. I’d love to hear any feedback that y’all have! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Outfitr Report post Posted March 6, 2020 Looks good! Machine stitched? Did you create the pattern? Looks like you have an oval punch for the belt holes and a double border cut in. Nice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I designed the pattern, first one of mine that didn't end up with way too much backgrounding! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was no commercial collar strong enough to hold him, so I would hand stich two layers of 8 oz and make him a new one every year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems like two equal layers helps it hold it's shape too, done a dog collar like that and it turns out really strong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AdamZ Report post Posted March 29, 2020 Very nice! I might get around to trying some tooling work one day. I hope when I do it's half as nice as this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rockon Report post Posted March 29, 2020 Nice Job ! Very clean straight knife and beveling job. It makes the tooling look great. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
