Stitching a belt witht the "Gunslinger Pattern"

[@johnjames8521]

Thank you for the great video.

Hi Aaron, thanks for the video, I haven’t sewn a gunslinger pattern yet, so this was very helpful for this newbee! Gary+

It seems to me that it would be better to start marking the pattern from the other end of the belt (set back a bit from the first belt hole, like you suggested on the other end). That way you wouldn't end up with a short, out-of-proportion scallop on the part of the belt that is most visible. What do you think?

[@jailer23044]

Great looking pattern, I'd be interested in the pattern for a 1 3/4" belt although I doubt I'd try it any time soon since I don't yet own a machine. I think that much hand stitching might make me crazy.

If you do leatherwork you're already a little crazy... why not go balls to the wall and join us on the bus!

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO VERY NICE WORK AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE FROM A D.A.VETERAN 13B10

Where did you get the fancy nipper you cut the belt with? Great video by the way.

[@makersleathersupply1220]

We used to sell them. You can find them at many hardware stores nowadays though.

Question: would you break the gunslinger pattern in the middle to add a name? if so would it be better to break the pattern at the points and not the scallops?

Hi Aaron For the 1.5in gunslinger belt template what stitching length is best 4mm or 5mm stitching iron

[@chrishickson7684]

I missed it in the video what make and model is your sewing machine? Great info on the gunslinger pattern. I have several of your templates and they work great. I appreciate your videos.

[@makersleathersupply1220]

Thanks for watching! In this video I used a Cobra Class 18 from the Leather Machine Company.

Where did you get the twisted scribe or the narrow stylus you have in this video?

[@japtynyph8669]

Que medida es que material usastes para ese diseño gracias

[@glockster9472]

How do you clean up the track marks the machine left?

[@andywitt9553]

Hi Aaron, I have heard you talk about your different sewing machines. Can you teach a newby what the difference in the various machines means. Like what is a type 18 machine?

[@chrisdavis6705]

Can you please make a video on how to make a ranger style belt, including how to measure for one? I'm learning a lot from your videos so please keep them coming. Thanks.

[@pauleyedwin6056]

If you haven’t found one yet Don Gonzales has a video on making a Ranger Belt.

[@rogerd.hardin7156]

How do you recommend I remove the protective material on the back of the template with out damaging it?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

It peels off easily. Use a hair dryer to warm it if it's being stubborn.

With the point of your stylus or your finger nail.

[@peternettleton8156]

I am in the UK, what is the reason for it to be called the "gunslinger pattern". I would call it decorative stitching?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

I have no clue, I didnt name it. Been doing leatherwork fir almost 20 years and this is what I've always heard it called.

[@peternettleton8156]

@@makersleathersupply1220 I didn't think you had called it that Aaron, just curious how it got it's name, will google it and see if anything comes up.

[@terrucoq]

It's typically called "boot stitch" the "gunslinger " name came from Clint Eastwood westerns as he wore a belt with that design in most of his movies.
