Just bought two new belts, but they are too large for me, I tried cutting, but I still need to add one more hole to the belts.

Can I just go to Macys and ask if they can do this for me?

return them and get smaller ones. but I would like a video of you going to Macy's and asking them to cut another hole in your belt.

Get a knife/something sharp + a hammer.

Put the knife / sharp object on where you want the hole to be.

Take the hammer and hit on top of it but make sure it doesn't slide.

Rotate the knife/sharp object and switch over sides until a hole is made.


---My ghetto method---

Just get lipo.

No point in ruining a perfectly good belt.

A leather punch will do what you want. Maybe a shoe repair place might do it.

I used to hammer a nail into it and use an exacto blade to clear it out. Eventually, continual usage of that hole smooths it out and it becomes just another hole.

Now, I just use a small drill bit and I'm done in seconds.

Of course, now I use those plaque designs so there isn't any need for holes. The belt just slides in and it clamps down.

I just used a box cutter to put two small slashes in the belt, like an X. You really had to ask how to add another hole? Hahahah ;)

Wouldn't it be nice if someone could invent a tool that could punch the hole? They could call it a hole punch. :)

Alright, go get a metal pen refill cartridge. Wear gloves- take it apart and wash it out. Then, place on belt where you want a hole, and smack it with a heavy object.
