Great tips, as always, Chuck!

[@iainmcculloch5807]

Ah yes. I remember when I was a 35" waist. Not any more though! Mind you, I got good use of of the "expansion holes" in my belts on the way to where I am now.

[@Bad.Skunky]

Keep those tips coming. 👍

For us "older" craftsman with decreasing hand strength or arthritis, are there any tips, tricks, devices that can we use on our stamping tools? BTW great program, I watch as many as I can, get great ideas and tips. Thanks

Chuck, great information as always. Unfortunately you missed a great opportunity to suggest using a Poundo Board. Especially when using an expensive Round Knife. Best regards, Richard

I would love to see a video on zippers please. What to look for different ways to hand sew them in etc.

[@erikgautebaklid2868]

Very good tips n' tricks🙂👍

Don't you have to account for the different sized buckles? If they use the sizing belt with that particular buckle, then they pick out a fancy buckle that may be longer, won't that affect the size?

[@WeaverLeatherSupply]

It shouldn't. The bend back of the belt will still fall on the heel or center bar of the buckle no matter how large the buckle is. Hope that makes sense!

[@bfinney479]

When l had a shop l always made sure to know what buckle would be used on the belt. Some trophy buckles had quite a reach!

Hello. I made a belt a few yrs ago. Tooled it with letters near end. I got letters upside down 5 times. What do you do errors?
