Got the buckles today, thanks for your time Jeff.
Now to design a belt around them is my next step.
Cheers Wayno

Re: Belt Buckles – profit to Ozbow
Well fellas I have just picked up another lot of buckles; the last ones (at least for quite some time). The company that makes them has closed their doors so I can't get any more done. I guess I will have to find another manufacturer and start from scratch again. Anyway if anyone wants a buckle please give a holler.

Re: Belt Buckles – profit to Ozbow
Gidday Jeff,
The is a small foundary at Brandon that does custom work - Delta Iron Works. A few years ago my father gave me an aluminium commemorative plaque they handed out to visiting locals for their 100th anniversary. It reminds me of the belt buckle, I must locate it so I can post a photo.
If you don't have any luck closer to home perhaps they can help.
Are your previous suppliers going to give you the mould/s? It would be good to avoid another set up cost and probably some small differences in design.
Cheers......... Rod

Re: Belt Buckles – profit to Ozbow
Thanks for the info Rod. Yes, I got the mould back. The process they use is called spin moulding or some such thing and I don't think it is being done locally much anymore. I believe (like most things) it is done overseas in China or somewhere. Anyway, I have a number of buckles left here now so I have time to look into things.

I'm not really a belt buckle kinda guy, but I really enjoy the ozbow website, so I'll take one (and send my details via PM) to show my support.

I reckon a couple of these won't go astray. Are there any left, Jeff?

Welcome to Ozbow. I don't know where you might get a Trad Archery buckle from but I don't plan on having any made.GLENNMCM wrote:I am a traditional archer but not a hunter any chance of getting a buckle design for traditional archers sometime in the near future.
