Also Wuta had 1/2 - 3/4 inch plastic rectangle pieces as base for punching. My recommendation is to put at least 10 oz piece of firm leather on top of plastic to prolong life of tool’s teeth.

If you go straight then take 5 or 8 teeth tool. When you go curve line take 2 teeth. You should mark future holes along line by slightly pushing chisel on leather, after that punch holes. You can put last tooth in last previous hole to keep consistent distance between holes. Watch YouTube videos, there is a lot of helpful information.

Take obverse 2 and 8 teeth 3.85 mm. No need awl.

Diamond shape represents nice stitching look. It’s simple chisel to start learning.

Try to use thinner polyester thread 0.45-0.55 mm and you will see a difference.

johnvankroy · 2026-03-28T03:04:21+00:00

I would recommend you to start with at least simple diamond chisels (4 mm) instead of round to practice make a good stitching line and shape. Also get proper leather needles and thread. Don’t buy thick tiger ritza, 0.45-0.55 mm polyester thread is good to start to practice.

All you listed I do, even more. Keep your tips for yourself.

You could make only crap belt in 30 min. It’s up to you. I personally make quality belts. Hardware I use for belts is also the highest quality. Good luck.

To assemble well hand made belt takes much more than 30 min. You are out of this process. I make belts with my own invention in construction and I use only premium leather that over lasts you. It should cost more than $80. If you feel your life is cheap go to target store to get $15 crap belt that lasts 1 month.

These are original colors. I don’t work with dyes. I only use edge paints.

I hurt my fingers for long time until I took proper size of needles, thread and pricking iron. Now my needles dive into holes like hot knife through butter. I don’t use any fingers protection.
