Make a Seatbelt Belt

Make a Seatbelt Belt
Have you ever wanted a seatbelt belt free of Blood and other stains? 

I in fact did, and upon seeing a few Ibles about these particular belts, but they all required snatching a used belt from some poor, dead, defenseless car. This belt, although not free, is clean, and that was a major factor for me. In this Instructable, you'll take a two part seatbelt from a supplier, and make it into a wearable, stylish belt.

This project takes in the range of 2-3 hours. And depending on where you get your belt, a little over $20 
With this being a high quality belt, it will take some work. The tools required are as follows:
-A Seat Belt
-Sturdy work surface Not a Table ( Recommended, hammering is used)
-Hammer
-A kit for installing Snaps 
-Razor Blade (Scissors if not accessible)
-Tape measure (Optional)
-Ice Pick (Or another very  slender sharp object)
-Pliers 
-Ruler
-Blow Torch (Lighter)
-Sharpie (Optional)

*Seriously. Get one from this website. this is where I got my two. They're cheap. Especially considering that some belts at walmart ar $20 and they look rather plain.

I quite enjoy music, with a close second in making things.
