My long suffering and supportive other half has asked for a new wrist band. So made this. It's a work in progress as I don't have any bevelers yet to finish of the auryn symbol

Thanks Mr Owl. With the hints I've been dropping I'm hoping leather crafting tools will be on the cards for my birthday lol

nice work bud what leather you using? looks rough like a split or is that just the photo?

It's errrr ....leather...... At work at the moment.... But think its 4mm. The staining you see in the pic is the water marks from when I put the design on the leather.

If you get chance use a razor sharp knife at 45 degrees on the edges working from back to belly. With a bit of practice you can get near a "edge beveller" finish.
Get some stain on it and a load of shoe polish and it will look stunning,

I'm holding out for a bevel stamp mate.....dont want to wreck it lol. I dont trust myself to keep the cut consistent. I've been informed that its to be dark brown when it's finished

Just about finished. Although I did get a bevel I actually ended up using a round metal spike as I didn't think there was enough room on the design to get the stamp in.
