Making a belt
- Thread starter salad
- Start date
Thanks, this was one of the first things I gave a go when I bought a load of leather working tools.
Nice to see I wasn't far off, although it took me far longer than 5 minutes
and I didn't have a skiver, in hindsight I think I should have at least put some attempt in at skiving the leather a bit.
Still, a solid belt that I have worn day in day out for a couple of years now and still going strong.
Certainly a nice starter project, for anyone keen on giving leatherworking a go.
You can buy belt blanks cheap from leprevo or ebay as I did.

Do you have a link to where you got your blank/s?
If this is breaching etiquette, could you PM?
Many thanks
