I know some beginners have problems keeping their letters aligned. This is an overlay lettering guide for 1" letters onto a 1 1/2" belt or strap that will hold the letters straight.
It's constructed of 1/4" aluminum with a 1.52" channel that goes over the belt and the cutout can accommodate 12 letters. I did this for my final school machining project. I learned a lot while cutting it. Mostly I learned I DON"T want to make another. It's difficult to hold and chattered and warped a bunch! Anyway, the Dallas Maker Space leather SIG is having a belt making class this weekend so I thought I'd donate it to them. And if I ever do want to make another, I'm doing it in Delrin Plastic so I can cut it on the table saw and the laser. Best to stick to what I know.
