SUPPLIES shown in video are listed below by section 👉🏼 👉🏼
WHERE TO BUY BELTING: 👇🏼
To buy NEW belting:
Steinlauf & Stoller–where I buy by the roll. Email or call to order. steinlaufandstoller.com/Belt%20Backing.htm
New belting by the yard:
- countrystorefabrics.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=72&product_id=6133
- https://gotanotion.shop/products/belt-backing?variant=42513449255066
- fabricboutiquestore.com/product/38666
- Maxant sells belting in 44” lengths: coverbuttons.com/product-category/belt-backing
To buy VINTAGE belting:
- ** 2” wide vintage belting (can be cut to width) - creatoriq.cc/3UfW2nN
NOTE: Maxant used to make modern buckle & belting kits (like vintage kits). They don’t seem to sell them any longer themselves, but Amazon still has them:
- ** ¾” wide kit: amzn.to/41F9gwC
- ** 1 ½” wide kit: amzn.to/40k5Uyd

WHERE TO BUY TUBE TURNERS: 👇🏼
You can sometimes find a vintage Fasturn kit of turning tubes (what I have) on eBay or Etsy for under $40. Keep your eyes open! I think you could DIY it with the Dritz Quick Turn or Turn it All tube turners, AND a sewing loop turner!
- Fasturn sold in individual sizes: sewingpartsonline.com/fasturn-singles-tube-and-hook.aspx
- ** Sewing loop kit: amzn.to/43Hjbnc
- ** Sewing loop turners: amzn.to/41oQHNB
- ** Turn it All tube turner - amzn.to/3KMGzqW
- ** Dritz Quick Turn - amzn.to/3mGR6fl
