Re: On a knife edge
[mention]Nick_B[/mention] thank you!
Now 10/10 are sold - the whole run!
Today my dad visited so I showed him the buckles.
„Too bad they aren’t belt sized, I‘d really love to have one...“
His 76th birthday is on the 24th of may so I thought: „well - they aren‘t yet...“
Cut out for a 40mm belt in 6mm brass:
Sawin‘ the night away
All filed flat
Making the hinge...
...and the bevels
I‘d totally wear this.
More to come...

Re: On a knife edge
Thank you all for your constant encouragement, this means a lot to me!
A little size comparison to my 27mm buckle:
(and a little peek into my delaying Cali build)
The progress so far:
- hinges roughed in
- bevels set
- inside and outside edges filed flat and finished to 600grit
