Yes! Andy's fix was to replace the leather straps with wider leather. I'm hoping to get away with using the same straps so I don't need to do any riveting and custom leather work, which involve purchases of tools I don't have and wouldn't use very oft. I'm hoping twoprongs will be "strong enough" given the main pressures on the buckle will be parallel to it rather than perpendicular (of course that's the same theory that says "snaps work!" and they don't).
