Made for a friend that makes teeth for dentists. I wasn't sure how well this would turn out, but I really like it.

This is the wax mock-up of a customer's tooth that my friend sent me. I used this as "inspiration" for the buckle. Pretty cool huh?

This is by far, my favorite of the "Fat Tree" series. Mostly my wife's idea. I give her most of the credit. I didn't think it would turn out, but I was wrong. I think it's awesome.

Really great buckle. Based on the idea of my Fish Bones buckle. I like the skinny letters.


Fat Tree custom steel buckles


"Fat Tree" is the name of a great little rock band here in the Phoenix area. The band of my future brother-in-law. I decided to make him a buckle for their wedding, then decided to make one for the whole band cause they will all be groomsmen. This one is based off of my Iron Shield buckle.

Another one. Based off my Chaos buckle. With natural finish and clear coat.

Three wrench hooks

These are a hot seller on my Ety site. They have been featured on a website for "green" decor. Check out the slide show.

ONE DOZEN Hand forged mini roses


I have been making these roses for quite some time. I now offer them on Etsy as a single, 3-pack, 6-pack and as a dozen.

These roses measure about 12" long, and 3/4" diameter rose-bud. They look great on a shelf and never wilt or die!

Custom Pipe Wrench buckle

Fun buckle to make. Hand cut wrenches, welded on from the back. Hammered edge. Black paint. Nice and clean, I am happy with the finished product.

Custom spiral buckle

A very unique and interesting idea for a buckle. This is part of a larger outfit created by the buyer. Here is the original design sent to me.


This was somewhat challenging. The hardest part was trying to get the swirl the same as the design and to keep to the measurements. I might have pics later of the finished product with my buckle attached.
