Where do you get your belts made up?

I searched a lot of places online and couldn't find anything. So I went to mister minit here in Mackay and he recommended a shop in Mackay called "a little country". The guy who owns it is a craftsman and imports the leather from Italy and it is the type of leather that is dyed all the way through. So he says it will last forever, unlike the Chinese belts which split and look like crap after a short while. He put fixed clips on it as well, as they are less bulky and look better.

Vokey wedges:

**timah!** · 7th May 2013 08:48 PM

Nice one puji!

**Puji** · 7th May 2013 09:21 PM

Cheers! It took a bloody long time; and its lasted about 10 rounds now without a single chip to the paint full so I'm pretty happy.

It was an experiment - so I used regular craft paint, but sealed it with clear nail polish. Its turned out great.

Originally I wanted to a pastel coloured theme, but couldn't find the colours.

Provided the grip is dry, I should be able to put some pictures up of the GoLo 5 tonight.

I have a Scotty Cameron Newport TeI3 that I wouldnt mind seeing re-done...

^ that model...

Has been gathering dust for 10+ years (read: gathering rust), seems a shame to let it wither and die...

Anyone want to have a crack at it? - I'd compensate you for your time, or if you liked it enough once you're done you could compensate me for the putter

**timah!** · 8th May 2013 02:08 AM

Guy, more than happy to. I'll send you a PM.
We're only novices though.

Well the grip was dry, but of course there was ONE MORE thing I wanted to try. So I did. At some stupid hour of the morning. It's a good think I'm a night owl!

Fingers crossed it actually looks ok!

Thanks BITS, I think it is a little far for me to drop in and get him to make me a belt.

Would you game it, or keep it when done?
Here's one done by the Custom Shop for Alexmc :
If it where me, id go down that line.
How much you want for it?

**rhysnotreece** · 8th May 2013 09:12 AM

Puji did you need to do any prep work like removing old paint in etching or just paint over it? Finally I might have a use for all my girlfriends nail polish and craft stuff

This, and Hocko's mizzies, have me thinking. It might be craft day at your house.

Crack a Breezer with the missus Pop's and go nuts!

**timah!** · 8th May 2013 09:57 AM

Craft day can be arranged! You bring the breezers and we'll tweet pictures from the roof.

**Daves** · 8th May 2013 09:57 AM

If you want basic colours, I have been using Enamel Car paint I buy at SuperCheap for $5 a tin. I finish off with a coat of clear gloss that they also sell. I mainly redo club sole lettering and seems pretty hardy so far. I have used nail polish also, but it doesn't seem to last.

So, I think I've finally finished my GoLo aka uni procrastination. I didn't have a picture of what I wanted when I started this, only that I wanted the sight line white. So if you're changing one thing, you change them all. Maybe still a layer of clear to go.

**Lagerlover** · 8th May 2013 11:15 AM

No pics of the top of the grip?

**timah!** · 8th May 2013 11:18 AM

For Lager...

Not the easiest of parts to photograph actually!

**Lagerlover** · 8th May 2013 11:20 AM

Haha.. I was only joking!

**Captain Nemo** · 8th May 2013 11:20 AM

Loven it, now your out of control.....
