TLG Belt Interest

[Giles]

I am more than happy to have people take up one or two my positions if they want to.

[natehate]

thats not how i meant it g, i think it's pretty rad you're getting in on this

[Giles]

I know you did not mean it like that, don't worry.  But I don't want to stand in the way of anyone else getting in on the act.

[Seth]

I spaced out and expressed interest on the previous thread.
Any chance I can get on a Backup List as #14, if it turns out there's enough leather to make more than 13?.

[toddjcoley]

Yeah for sure! I think can get 16 but don't want to over promise.

[Giles]

As I said above, people can bump me.

[Giles]

Todd, please replace Seth for one of my slots.  G

[toddjcoley]

Cant have you doing anymore giles, you need one and H needs one to hook me up for life ha ha.

leather salesman a sooo slow at emailing!

[toddjcoley]

I can see why peoples projects never get going. I emailed four supplier Saturday and have only heard back from 3 all saying they have what I want, haven't received  any samples or news they have been sent and have asked for info on the leather and costs two days ago and silence.. where is a cow I am sure I could do it quicker!

[Mild7]

Todd, I'll put my hand up for one belt if there's still room.

[toddjcoley]

Ok got the first sample, still waiting for the others!
This 5.5mm thick, it has a white finish too it which i am unhappy with and need to talk to the supplier about.

Got a few pics, close up, comparing the colour, burnished edge that i did quickly and comparing the thickness with my belt.

[mclaincausey]

5.5mm?!?!  Sweet!

[toddjcoley]

@mclaincausey:

5.5mm?!?!  Sweet!

yep! i am only making belts 5mm (13oz) or thicker

[mclaincausey]

I was unable to find one that thick, had to settle for 4.7mm. VERY excited.

[toddjcoley]

might see if they offer any thicker, but these leather salesmen dont email for days arh! 6mm would be epic!

Also why i am here buckle interest, i will be using a roller buckle as shown before with chicago screws so you can change it if you want.
Colour choice is up to each person nickel or brass, i have asked and they can also do black. I was thinking bright red would be cool too but would have to get that priced.? So give me an idea of what your after

[mclaincausey]

Great news all the way round Todd!

[Giles]

Nickle for me please

[GingerMagician]

Nickel for me also please, Todd - though red sounds kind of funky…

[veloaudio]

Nickel please
