[1/2] Making a raised LEATHER BELT - How to (sort of..)

This is PART 1 of 2 in making a premium raised leather belt! See what I'm selling on my Etsy shop: https://etsy.me/2RV4Dwe The leather is 1,2mm thick vegetable tanned (or vegtan) leather that I dye by hand using Fiebing's Oil Dye (aka Pro dye) in black. All pieces are saddle-stitched by hand. ________ If you've been enjoying my videos and would like to support me directly, you can do so via one of the links below.
