Leather For The Masses

[TheOfficialBren]

Here's the skinny:

I have taken up leather tooling as a hobby on the side.

I have been gifted some nice items by the rabble in the past and I would like to pay it forward (good karma for good karma) and offer an item to an X-Marker who is in need and unable to afford the purchase of some leatherwork.

I have made a new casual belt similar to one that I made for myself a while back, the [BREN] Mark-I.

It is a simple Celtic knotweave with a pinstripe border in antique brown finish. It will fit a waist size 32"-36".

As a heads-up I am still learning and there are a few 'boo-boos' but overall it is a decent belt that I would wear myself (in fact, I DO often wear the older sibling of this new belt quite frequently, kilted or trousered).
I do not have an extra buckle to include but this belt will fit a standard belt buckle. This will NOT accommodate a kilt belt buckle.





Here are some photos:

Before I punched the buckle holes. One of the holes was nearly mispunched but you won't notice whole wearing it.

Good work, Bren. Tooling a belt is a LOT of work! Ya done good, guy!

Thank you, Father Bill.

I hope it'll find nice home (waist).

Thank you, Mipi.

Yes, that is some very nice work. I've been doing leather tooling for many year, and I do not have the patience to work on belts.
