Next we're going to set up our workspace. You can pretty much do it anywhere, but you do need a flat surface. The reason being is when you glue your pieces to your buckle, you want to make sure that it is flat. You can also use whatever you have laying around. If you want to prop it up a bit to get that really nice and flat. Other than that, just make sure that you have enough space to comfortably work in. Make sure that its clean. You don't want any dust, lint, or hair getting in between your glue, because pretty much once its set that's it. You don't want to have to pry if off and do it again. Make sure that you have plenty of light. Also, we're going to get into safety precautions here, which you're going to need with the glue. That's pretty much it for your set up. It's very simple.
