Great service

This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

I have been creating custom leatherwork for the last 9 years on Etsy and my own shop. I focus on belts with handmade hardware but can also make bags and wallets. In the last 9 years one of the few things I have made is a saddle. If it is not a saddle I can probably help.

I can use many of the top leathers from all over the world.

I can saddle stitch by hand or use an industrial sewing machine.

I am able to create custom tooling and designwork as well as create custom metal hardware.

I travelled across the US on my bicycle and operated a bicycle taxi for 12 years and focus on making things with a high level of durability for active hard working folks.

Suzette Dybiec

For A Special Belt for Christmas

The belts are so beautiful and my husband (hard to buy for) was impressed at the quality of materials and workmanship. Bill was responsive as we did have several back and forths with decisions on details. I met him for pick up as I was local. Bill was great to work with and I plan to be back for more belts. Actually just thought of an idea for myself.
