TLG Belt Interest

That was my thought. Would publish hardware and colour choice for group info but keep personal details off the web. ?
I just put the spreadsheet up as I know there are some smart cookies here that could give me some tips.

Todd - I'm going to switch to option 3 (two coats of mink oil) on the finish.  Like the split style keeper.

Will pm now with all relevant delivery/payment info - would prefer it not to made public, ta

[toddjcoley]

Ok i have been away from the internet for a few days, i will do an update tomorrow with every thing. I have the leather sitting in my room ready to cut. 

[toddjcoley]

What do i say, i unpacked the leather looks thick, nice grain oh what is all those deep marks, cracks and scuffs!!  The hide is no good and i will have to send it back, i am sorry for the delay. I will speak to the supplier and see if he can hand pick a good one or go to another suppler altogether. 

Why are things not easy?

[seanocono]

No stress at all, todd. I have complete confidence in your ability to deliver, and I appreciate your commitment to quality. These will be worth the wait.

[veloaudio]

Agree completely.

[el padre]

No worries, Todd, we appreciate you taking quality seriously.

Although I shall obviously blame you if my trousers accidentally fall down in the meantime

+1!

Depending what happenes in the next week i may have to put a hold on the belts as i am moving back to AUS and dont want the stress of an important dead line and trying to enjoy the UK summer. I have already found an Australian suppler that can deliver what we want.

If anyone whats to pull out if i use Australian insted of UK leather i fully understand so just drop me a pm if i have to go that way. Sorry for the set back and thank you for the support!

[madmonday]

i'm still in and great job on the quality control.

will get my information to you in the next coming days & no worries on the wait.

[Finn666]

since there is a delay…does that mean that more people can chime in again?

[toddjcoley]

Let wait and see, I am working to get a hide now, but if I run out of time let the orders role in I am happy to take peoples names that would like one and then you will be first in line next time

count me in!

[toddjcoley]

All ready have

[toddjcoley]

I am going to have to put a hold on these as I cant get the leather in time to make a quality product. I will keep everyone posted when it gains movement again, which i hope to be mid September. Sorry and thanks for the support!!

[Simon]

I guess you're going to wait until you get back to Aus now?

[seanocono]

No problem, todd.  Thanks for the update and good luck with the move back to Oz.

[mclaincausey]

+1. Where in Oz you moving?

[toddjcoley]

back home with the olds for now, have a hwdc usa tour to save for. A town called Mount Gambier, bit of a shit hole. As i am funding my usa tour all belts now are $1000 or a nights accommodation on your sofa if you live in north or south America.
