Re: KB TDK BELT
so when's the aluminum (aluminium for all of our brothers on the other side of the pond who like to add extra letters to everything version) coming out? This is just an amazing belt. your passion for the belt shows in the quality of work.

Re: KB TDK BELT
I never get tired of hearing that LOL.
Aluminum version was on the list of to-do. I scrapped that idea because it would cost 3x's what the resin one does andweigh a lot more. Plus there is no good way to do the buckle and C arms...
Its pretty hardy as is...

Re: KB TDK BELT
stuff has come up and I now am going to let a very few of these out as kits. Once they are gone, thats it. I wasn't going to do this... But oh well... Trading section says more.

Re: KB TDK BELT
They are kits. As in, i pull them from my mold, i belt sand the backs so the parts are uniform.. i package them up and ship to you. You will actually have to build the belt just as you would with any other belt kit out there.
The worst of it is the drilling, but i have made it quite simple as the locations are molded in. There is about 1-2 hours of drilling, then from there its down hill- painting and such.. not impossible by a long shot.
here is the belt i built over the past week for a friend.. taken 20 min ago.. this is of the new color in natural light..
