Making a GPF buckle

[straps68]

Starting with a blank;


and some tools;


bevel the inside edges;


round the tang cutout;


bevel the outside edges;


and bevel around the corners;


round the sides;


add a tang I made earlier;


And after about 2.5 hours of work, you could call it done but usually it takes another couple of hours to soften the edges and polish/brush the whole thing and then assemble it.

Thanks for the kind words guys

It's mostly the thumb and index finger that get sore doing this work.
