356 bronze belt buckles
Hi everyone
Some of you may have seen the thread I started in the general discussion forum about a batch of 356 belt buckles I have made. I now have a small batch of 15 completed. I will limit the total run to 100 pieces.
They're cast in bronze and have a stainless wire belt loop on the rear. They are AU$150 plus $25 postage etc.
Regards
Simon

Re: 356 bronze belt buckles
Thanks Rusty!
James - I only cast 15 or so in the first run, but I cast every few weeks at the moment (other products), so if you'd like one I'm happy to cast you a buckle in the next casting.
If anyone is interested in the casting process you can find a pictorial explanation on my website:

Hey Simon,
Would you consider doing a Speedster buckle? The Coupe looks very nice!
Cheers,
Nick Daffern

Hi Nick
It would depend on how much interest there is. The model takes quite a long time to carve by hand.
