@Stock & Barrel Co Very well custom belt you made there Sir. I am a very large man in size and height. Any how, I am interested in a custom sized belt of that type you have manufacturer there with your great skill. I've looked at your webpage and not find belts for sale.
I just got back into leather making after buying leather two years ago. I have two TH-cam channels Mike’s wood shop and the Rinnai guy. I found your channel the other day and love it. Keep up the great work👍👍 I’ve learned a lot from you. Mike
Great shop with all the tools. Love it!! I just started out 2 months ago. I started with the belts and then moved up to making Body Purses for my granddaughters. My wife, both my sons and my 3 grandsons received my custom belts with my designs on them.
I retired a few years ago and I am looking for winter hobbies, I have a lot of warm weather hobbies that I can make diy leather projects for such as knife sheaths, axe head covers, storage pouches, gun belts, holsters, rifle slings, bed roll straps and more. I'll be watching your videos.
I really enjoy your channel and i loved this Belt making video. Wish i had my ole leather tools still. Sure enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work.
Can you show a simple leather belt making by traditional method with simple tools...that's way lot of expensive machines to make a belt! Your presentation style is awesome too. Loved your video on 10 basic tools on leather craft!
I made a roller belt using Tandy leather I bought from Amazon. I came out nice but I didn’t think of smoothing out the edges with beeswax; great video 👍🏿
Well this was certainly very helpful, thank you for making this video. I'm currently making Armor for Live Action Role Play instead of belts but thanks to you I now know how belts are made. Now to work out how to translate the process of making a belt into the straps for securing the armor I'm making in place without accidentally making said armor useless (leaving some form of semi-large gap) in that area. Would it be too much to hope for that you happen to have a video on that sort of topic by any chance?
This is so strange and helpful, you released this video on the day that I decided to make myself a belt! The problem is, your belt looks so much better than mine! I can’t compete. I’m not too concerned though, your stuff is just remarkably clean, and the details make the product. Either way, I love your company, and you’r content brother, thanks again
Just starting in the leather craft. I want to make a heavy duty gun belt. What would you recommend for leather? Weight? Part of hide? Double vs single layer? Thanks brother. Love your videos.
Hey man, love your content. I found this video after I just finished punching the holes in my new belt by hand lol. Where can I get more info on that tool that cuts the ends and punches the holes?
Great tutorial..8:45 any reason why you did not skive the short section that wraps around the buckle? Most belts have that short piece thinner so it doesn't protrude out when in a pants.. keep up the awesome work!
I’m just starting off. Got my belt leather this morning for exact same project so that’s uncanny. I’m using rabbit skin glue instead of water. It’s the binding agent in gesso, thin as water, and will seal it. Love all your stuff, hi from England.
Great belt making video! I used to make a lot of leather stuff and carve. Just broke out some of my stuff and hope to have time to do more. Great video!
Says a lot about your channel that I just watched you make a belt for 14 minutes... Quality videos always. Also by that I just mean I can make a belt... heh
Just found and subbed your channel. I love your energy and ethusiam!! I've been into leather knife sheath making for about 5 years and have just been trying to expand my leather crafting skills to simple wallets, and belts (just started a belt today in fact). I am looking foward to watching more of your vids.
When making a bell for XXL or bigger, use a name plate at the back to join two belts together…this will give you length easily. Also it makes three pieces that are better lengths to work with. Good luck 🤞 and enjoy the process.
Your work is always amazing but he quality of your videos is on point!! Please add you tech specs. I'm dying to know what your shooting and editing with.
I stumbled across your channel while searching for making leather belts. I have to say that your videos are the simplest, down to the point, fun and education that I have seen. I am new to leather work and have started out by making belts and watch straps. I have learned more from watch your videos that I have collectively from watching many others. Keep up the great work. You have a permanent subscribed fan here!!!
I like your design of the Burnishing Jig. How Long is it? What is the width of the Gap? How deep did you go for the Gap on 1-1/2 inch Belts? How deep did you go for the Gap on the other side and what width of Straps do you use that side for? I need Jig so much. Thank you for your help. Robert
Thanks for the helpful information. I am very new at leather work. Made a couple belts for myself but I see from this video where I could have improved. I bought some heavy leather already dyed black that was on sale at Tandy in Nashville. I made myself those 2 belts and then one for my daughter. okay, 3 for my daughter because I kept making them too short and she is bone thin. Not sure how I did that. I am new to your channel. just subscribed today. :)
Got a belt blank that I need to finish up as my work belt has seen better days lol..... I did just finish my 1st field notes cover with 2 card pockets tho. Got a few items to get made yet for Christmas gifts :)
Maan... Seeing this gave me so many ideas , also the way you explain and the quality of the video its just amazing, I will 100% buy something from you guys !!! Like , share and Support !
Another great vid. Question on belts as I am about to make my first belt for a Christmas present. For the holes at the end opposite the buckle. Is it better to make round or slightly oblong? Trying to decide if I should get an oblong punch or stick with the round punches I currently have.
Parker, Love the videos. My current project i'm trying to do my first wallet all by hand. Sort of the size of your No 52. But wow mines thick. It tried hand skiving the interior pieces of my 4oz leather down but it's a bit of a brick. What thickness of leather do you use for your interior? And are you buying it that thick or splitting it somehow? I must say as well with all the hand cutting that I certainly see the value of your clicker press.
haha yes the clicker press is VERY nice. I usually use 3-4oz leather for our wallets. It would be pretty difficult to hand skive an entire piece of leather though and keep it consistent and clean. So I wouldn't recommend trying to skive the whole piece unless you can get your hands on a band knife splitter or even a bell knife skiver. My best recommendation would be to either use 3-4oz on the whole thing or buy two different hides. Like at tandy you can buy their natural veg tan tooling hides in any weight. So you could buy one at 2-3oz (for the interior pieces) and one at 3-4oz for the exterior. Hope that helps!
Oh yea, I want to make a leather tool bag for the handle bars on a motorcycle but can't seem to find a pattern. Do you know where I can find one? Thanks!
Unfortunately no...and yes I agree. I definitely would've designed the die a bit differently. But the machine works perfectly. So maybe they'll come out with different dies down the road.
Do we have any belt makers in the house?
I make a lot of belts. Love the process. Fun to make.
The only difference is I use Chicago screws instead of rivets.
yea i got you fam!

Watching your videos has inspired me to start leatherworking as a hobby.
Your energy just turned craftsmanship into a damn sport lol. Good video
Cutting the line with your head knife...the "ding" at the end. Perfect.
i know i probably couldn't do that again if i tried haha
Bro, those are sick tools you have. Thank you for showing us how to make a custom belt.
Thanks for watching Martin!
i think a longer end of the belt looks quite cool, should not be too short.
Great shop with all the tools. Love it!! I just started out 2 months ago. I started with the belts and then moved up to making Body Purses for my granddaughters. My wife, both my sons and my 3 grandsons received my custom belts with my designs on them.
We love that, and I bet your family is loving it too!
Just started watching your videos . I like your style. I have just got back in to leather work after 25 years.
Right on Harvey, glad you're back:) and thank you!
Just bought a blank belt, dye and a few things just to get started, loved this tutorial!
Me gustan tus trabajos, y aunque no entiendo mucho lo que dices por las figuras me sirve lo que enseñas.

Great personality! Wish I had your sunshine everyday!
Good presentation, especially on the sizing. Thanks

Thank you for posting educational and tutorial vids like these.they are a huge help with beginners learning the steps. Never stop sir!
To help with the buckle end you can skive it down to help it fold. If you buy belt blanks from Tandy they come that way
You're an inspiration
Great tutorial..8:45 any reason why you did not skive the short section that wraps around the buckle? Most belts have that short piece thinner so it doesn't protrude out when in a pants.. keep up the awesome work!

amazing explanation thanks buddy for making it
It’s hard to make belts . I thought it would be easy. Thank you for the video
Thanks for these informative videos. I want to get started in leather crafting but not sure how to start.
A question about buckles. How do I choose which type of buckle to use for my belt?
Just getting into leathercraft. I really enjoy your videos.
I really like all of your posts I made a belt I would like to show you
Your work is always amazing but he quality of your videos is on point!! Please add you tech specs. I'm dying to know what your shooting and editing with.
Love the jig. Any chance you could make a twin of it? I make firefighter leather radio straps and burnished edges are my weakness

Thanks for the video. I have a double-prong buckle from an old belt I'd like to reuse. I'm going to use this video to make the new belt.
Thank you! I am a brand new leather worker. Do belts sale well ?
Do you ever use Tokonole or Smith's to burnish and smooth down the flesh side with a glass plate slicker?
Question I would like to know where to buy your belts machine end buckle... I’ll apreciate a lot 🙏🏻 Thanks and congratulations for your tutoriales 👍🏻
I like your design of the Burnishing Jig.
How Long is it?
What is the width of the Gap?
How deep did you go for the Gap on 1-1/2 inch Belts?
How deep did you go for the Gap on the other side and what width of Straps do you use that side for?
I need Jig so much.
Thank you for your help.

@@SunyJim Yea I use 2 oz for the inside pockets and I use 5-6 oz for the outside which I tool custom if someone wants.
Please can you mention the name of the machine you used to punch those buckle holes or a link where I can buy one
Did you made your atelier? Looks cool
Would this be a good first project?
Can you make tutorial two side collor belt?
That "squeeky sound" thingy helped me a lawt!
Are there stores like kandy stores in England. Where can I get materials for leather work in the South Coast? Mike
Oh yea, I want to make a leather tool bag for the handle bars on a motorcycle but can't seem to find a pattern. Do you know where I can find one? Thanks!
We use Chicago screws or line 24 snaps . people may want to change buckles.
Awesome video☝🏼
Awesome work
What is the item number for the sizing stamp set. I don't see it listed in your material list?
Really interesting .... I'd like learn about this more.... Nice work bro👌👌👌👌
Hey bud great info. What size is that buckle?
Thank you! It is 1 1/2" Buckle Here is the link. We got this one from buckleguy! bit.ly/3BvrRl1
very interesting thank you for the great video I can tell you enjoy your time doing this
Dude awesome video. Can’t wait for more.
Thanks a ton:)
I'm looking. For a pattern to make an old 4 inch weight belt. Any one help would be great.
Good afternoon! Where can I get this book on making belts?
Hi, you are lucky you've got a splitter, why don't you use it to taper the part near the buckle?
Is the spacing adjustable on the tipper? Because that tail past the second rivet is too long as well, it might start curling?
Unfortunately no...and yes I agree. I definitely would've designed the die a bit differently. But the machine works perfectly. So maybe they'll come out with different dies down the road.
When is there gonna be a restock on the site?
Where can i get that buckle?
Who are these Tandy people? In the UK Tandy is a washing machine maker, there are no supplier like you have. Love the ideas and you products.
Hi... May i know what brand of splitter you used and how to get it?
Super love it!!!!
How much do you have in your belts and how much do you sell them for??
