BooBoo Fett ROTJ Ammo Belt #00001

[BooBoo Fett]

Well, my TDH Brothers, I present the following for your consideration...

After trooping in Anaheim, then baby sitting my brothers kids, I finally got some time to finish my ammo belt tonight. This will be the belt for my suit...
BooBoo Fett ROTJ Ammo Belt #00001

The belt strap is hand cut 5-6 oz cowhide. Sturdy, but much more flexible than off the shelf, pre-cut belt strap. Ammo Pouches are FUNCTIONAL. Not thin leather wrapped around sheet metal, Tupperware or a block of wood. These are hand tooled 3-4 oz cowhide. Utilizing a leather "hinge", I was able to use the wrap around flap as the belt loop for a more screen accurate look (something I was unable to do with my previous design). Cross stitching on the top and bottom of the pouch further enhances the screen look.

I have some very minor tweaking to do on my master patters. If there is enough interest, I hope to be offering ESB, ROTJ ($210, 8 pouches) and SE belts ($240, 12 pouches) in the next week or so.

Thanks to all of you that offered your support, comments and suggestions (please continue). I could not have done this without your help and encouragement.

:cheers :cheers :cheers :cheers :cheers :cheers

Perhaps you should also post the price ?

But I'm interested anyway with belt #00002

Looking great. Obviously from you posts you've been logging the hours. Will you be offering weathering on these?

Thanks gents. Carves, your question is now addressed in the original thread.

PEEL1965, yep. Lots of hours. I may offer these weathered. I just need to learn how

As soon as I get caught up on some things, I'll be ordering. Just gotta decided between ROTJ and SE, for my SE Fett. I only wear a size 31 waist in pants, do you think I can pull off a 12 pouch belt, Terry?

Also, will be eventually ordering a small belt for my son, if you're up to it.
