HUGE belt

[Dougster]

And I mean it:

1 1/2 by 60 inches (that's 5 feet)

Dark brown with solid brass west end buckle, inch wide loop and two brass rivets.

and my new makers mark on one end - the setter.

There are no holes yet, they will be punched wherever the buyer wants them, at whatever intervals they so wish.

This is only the second thing that has gone out with this mark, number one should be dropping onto a doormat soon.

I don't know why I went quite so big on this one, but that corner to corner view on the new side I bought from LePrevo called to me and it seemed a good idea at the time.

I'd like £38 all in, including paypal and postage to your door. Bob the builder workbench needed for future projects.

Thanks for looking

Richard

That would go around my waist more than twice. Nice work tho' and a good catch for some.........one else

 

[Dougster]

I'm beginning to think I'll have to drill out the rivets and take the buckle in a foot or two.

That shouldn't be a problem if anyones is thinking of it.

Nice work Rich, as usual. I'm very impressed with your new makers stamp, i'll have a better look when i see you next hopefully. Nice one mate.

When we met for a beer a while back I didn't realise you were going to use me as a model

Looks mighty fine, but I'm having to resist buying goodies at the moment.

loving the makers stamp mate! - any chance of a close up

The belt is pretty tidy too of course!

 

[Dougster]

This is the one on my belt, really close up.

Looks great Rich! - what a nice way to remember him by!

How's it stamped? - it looks really clear for such a large stamp (assume it is a le prevo one)

 

[Dougster]

It is a LePrevo, I wet the belt before dying, put the stamp and leather between two bits of wood and tighten a g clamp around it as it dries.
