TLG Belt Interest

[toddjcoley]

Ok after sticking up a photo of some belts I had made, I had a few people say they like them. Cheers men! So I am starting this to see if people are keen to buy some. My rough plan would be to get at least ten people (CAPPING @ 13) to order letting me buy a hide and not 1. be out of pocket and 2. have a whole hide in my bedroom going to waist.  I would be looking at 5mm thick and only doing natural finish. Though I am happy to stain and oil if people would like. I would be happy to sell around cost if people would be happy to help give feed back. I have no idea about postage.

I have also done a few cardholders too. There are small mistakes in my work as these are my only ones and I am self taught, I would let none go out the door like that!

Any questions let me know, thanks for reading!
Cheers Todd

Your work looks great Todd!

[Giles]

Todd you could get them to me if people are prepared to "stack" them, then if we ship with something else, postage is zero extra in Europe and let's say US7 anywhere else in the world.  G

O0 I will start looking at hide prices, I had a few quotes and the ranged from £90 - +£200. I will try for some samples.

[toddjcoley]

Any one keen on using a buckle like this. I have been planning to make my self one.

[mclaincausey]

I like em. I think though that I would like Chicago screws more so I could use buckles I already have.

[el padre]

Yeah, I'd be interested. They look great. Prefer the buckles in your first post.

[toddjcoley]

Cool thats the feed back I want. I have emailed 3 people about hides and requested samples. Will keep you up dated
