    What a cowinkydink! Just last week I got a black belt from a Tandy store and bought the rectangular buckle to the left of yours on the website. I was planning on getting the round buckle for a brown belt as soon as he gets more belt leather.

    Cheers! Bill

    I'm a big fan of the belts AmeriKilts sells. Not sure if they could be adapted for the buckles you want though.

    I have an order for an Amerikilt belt in right now. I can't wait. From looking at it it looks to be a well-made belt.

    I'm going to make my next belt, I believe. I haven't worked with leather in 20 years, but when I was in school I was an award-winning leather worker, taking first place in Texas twice in one show. I just have far too many hobbies already to take it up again in any form of serious manner.

    Check with Jerry at SWK & others I have listed below

    Check with Jerry at SWK located in Richfield for an inexpensive starter
    belt currently listed in his clearance section.
    Set up an appointment by checking his web site:

    One of the x marks members thread #5 suggested checking out the
    Tandy leather site - Well if you got transportation; Tandy has a store
    at 7846 Portland Avenue near I494 in Bloomington.
    They have all kinds of good stuff to help your kilted projects!
    Someone awhile back made note of getting a leather belt from Lowes
    which turned out quite well as a crafty project. Lowes has a few stores
    in the metro area.
    Maybe Home Depot or Menards might have something you can use.
