New Scribbling (199902)


Brass Belt Buckle

I started out with some scrap 220 alloy brass,3/16" thick. I'm not sure what made me think it might make a good belt buckle.

I took my Philmont buckle and used it to get an idea of what size this one should be. A hacksaw and a bastard file soon saw things the right size and shape.
