OLD LEATHER SMITH here, your Leather work is excellent Sir, Rivet Head idea great, one step further, carve a design in the tool so U can have a design in your rivet head, GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃
When the old telephone wires come down here in S/W Mt, I got some I can use now. In fact, when I had to move I left about 50 lbs of 1/8 " behind. I still have about 35', ~(:-})
Greatly interested in the homemade rivet set uve show. Im planning on doing one by myself and would appreciate further info about that. Thx a lot in advance.
I have never before seen anybody dome the head of the rivet. What a great idea.Have you tried swaging the head before using the rivet? Maybe a 9/64 hole in a 1" piece of key steel or the like. All the best
LMAO you put it on Backwards lol The peen side is the finish side The smooth side is the back so it does not rub into your self or the horse LMAO Got to love when some one makes a video and doesn't do it right! lol
that part at the end separates the newbies from the pros
Thanks for posting! I like the way you set those rivets. Nice leather work too!
Happy trails🇺🇸

Now I know what 2 tools I have. They're really old rivet setting bars.
Very well done 👍
Great video, thanks! I'm working with Kydex & Boltaron. Will try those copper rivets now, easy!
Great belt! Can you dome of off both sides of the rivet?

The one I made is a piece of half inch bar stock with a 3/16 hole drilled over an inch deep in the center
Excellent thanks for that information

This could cause the rivet to cut the surface of the leather as the washer is being tightened and flared. But worth a try
Thank you! I'm going to give that last step a try!
This was helpful thanks
What border stamp is that you used on your gun belt? I really like it. I think it looks sharp.
Its a vainer and a mules foot used side by side the facing each other
