The 24mm is tricky 'cause you have to scale down from the originals, which were not 24mm and there are decisions to make.

I can imagine! But still you achieved the final results nicely, I can hardly see the differences of the 2 sizes in your picture!straps68 wrote:Thank you kindlyVanSong wrote: ↑February 18th, 2021, 7:18 amVery good looking buckle, even the 24mm size looks great!

Sure man... little scratches... you‘re a mad man! These are pristine! I‘ll be crying while I hit them with the hammer - you can’t say I didn’t tell you

Seriously, I swear there's a whole bunch of little scratches. Saw them with my own eyes
I really like what you did to that last buckle - it looks cool now, so please, do your thing
