Show your roman belts?

[M. Demetrius]

Very neat! What thickness is your brass on the mouse plates?

Did you work each one individually and freehand, or make a tool to help stamp the patterns? Tinning isn't so hard on small pieces like that. Oatey's 95 does a fair job, and all you need is a propane torch. They make two kinds, an oily flux base and a water base. I recently bought some of the water kind, but haven't tried it yet. The oil base works fine, but it's sort of messy.

Can't do either one with the plates still on the belt, though, because your leather would scorch.
