I do drive myself crazy about mistakes!

[@ashleybombay6219]

Can you do a video on how to add a german concho to a belt. (The kind with a welded loop/ring on the back side of the concho) how to attach it?

[@commonsensecorner7275]

I am certainly my BIGGEST CRITIC, which is why I still haven’t cut my 1st piece of leather yet! I think I finally have everything I need to make my pouch look as professional as possible - as though I’ve been doing it for years... 😎 Well, I haven’t gotten my stamp with my logo yet! 😤😤😤

You can do it!

I tell budding leather workers that when they get compliments the best response is; “Thank you” not; “Thanks but look at this mistake and that mistake.” As Chuck says no one ever sees that.

My conchos have a flat base like washer that the screw butts up against and makes them stick out and I hate them...don't know how to make them work with sticking out and them catching on loops and things...

Is it possible to remove belt conchos ??

[@WeaverLeatherSupply]

Yes, unless the belt is lined and the back of the concho is sandwiched between the top and bottom layer. You should see a concho back if it isn't layered and there would either be a screw that you can just unscrew and remove or if it's a rivet back, you can use the method in the video below.

How far apart on condos , for 5 on 44 belt

[@WeaverLeatherSupply]

See if the video below helps, you'll want to take the distance between your shortest belt hole and the buckle fastener hole and divide it by 6 (amount of conchos plus one). So if that distance is 40" and you are adding 5 conchos you would take 40 divided by 6 and use that as your spacing.

The only people seeing mistakes are us leathercrafters.
