Those buckles are amazing!

Thanks... do you have a preference of the Brass or Steel?

Wait until you see the pictures of them once finished and polished... they are nice and shiny.

Take care

I like them both but the brass seems to have a little more contrast with the bends and just pop a lot better.

Of course once you get done finishing and polishing, the steel ones may have that pop also.

I could only dream of being able to do things like that with metal. :)

All it takes is practice and patience. Sinclair didn't pop out of his mama's womb knowing how to forge steel and brass! :P Hours of putting the shop together, experimenting with tools and techniques, playing with raw materials and learning what it will and won't do. Finally actually learning how to put it all together into the fine pieces Sinclair has shown.

Outstanding, Sinclair. I would love to come spend some time at your forger and play with some stuff...maybe when life slows down a bit. (Hopefully that will be soon)
