Critique Request belt with 8 conchos

[Jane]

Here is a belt made by Oliver Saddlery with my engraved silver conchos on it. There are 8 conchos total with 4 different layouts. This is a good example of liking the drawing of the layouts and not liking it cut....haha. However I really like the layout of 121_2175.
Critique welcome and appreciated.
While uploading these pictures I decided to add a picture of a sterling man's wedding ring I made as well, it was a neat and fun project. Its made of 5 individual pieces soldered together. One of a kind!

Thanks,
Jane

I like it, what did you solder on the back site of the conchos?

Thanks Kylian,
I used chicago screws to attach them to the belt.

Hi Jane,
That bright cuts looks really nice!
Perhaps there are some design "issues" to look at, like the scrolls facing each other or growing from the center of the flowers... but I'm nobody to critique with enough authority.
Some times a pat on the back feels good, eh?
By the way, great pictures also. Keep cutting!

which part of the Chicago screw is soldered to the concho- or doesn't it matter?

 

[Jane]

Cloudy-
Here a link with what the screws look like.

I solder the female part to the concho because the male part is slotted for a screw driver

Thanks Leonardo

Thanks Arnaud,

I am building a nice round buckle to go on this which should match the conchos well.

 

[Jane]

I am adding these three pictures to this post because I finally got my buckle built and put on my belt.
I just need someone to model it!
