- Leatherworkers laying out straps and hardware folds
- Worth noticing
- The calculator counts equally spaced holes between selected insets, but does not account for leather thickness or buckle shape.
Field notes
The page asks for finished strap length, fold allowance, edge inset, and hole pitch, then counts evenly spaced hole positions between the selected insets. Its instructions tell readers to check the actual buckle, test the fold and hole arrangement in scrap, and compare the calculator’s count with a marked pattern. Separate sections cover leather selection, saddle-stitch consistency, edge finishing, and a hardware test strip.
