SS is so hard, it had to take patience (time) to complete this project.
It took a lot. I thought about giving up many times.

Pre-v no. I have thought about making GPF buckles in bronze. I will revisit this issue when ordering more blanks later this year - I have been asked about that before but it's the first time for pre-v.
