Scratchmade ESB belt WIP

[987654321a]

Well I was going to post this in my armor thread but that is for armor, haha.

I just started yesterday, by gluing 2 boards of 3/4" thick pine together, and I used batninjas belt tutorial for dimensions. I am still deciding whether to use real leather, or pleather.

Any suggestions?

Oh and here are pics of the wood cut to size on the band saw.

Good luck buddy, I would think you would want to use real leather, if you don't you might end up wishing you had.

^^^ Hmm, I might use real leather, but that leaves me the only choice of handsewing it. Would a regular sewing machine work with leather? And I am not too familiar with leather, and dying it.

The screen used pieces were brown textured vinyl. If you're going for screen accuracy; vinyl.

That being said Taco's Leather belts etc look AWESOME! So in essence, its up to you

Wow! I had no idea they were vinyl, Then I will definately go for screen accuracy.
