Thanks!

Thanks, I'll check that out! Nice belt by the way!

Here is a strap I am almost finished with. I usually just dye the inside and slick it but wanted to explore other option. Thanks for the responses.

Thanks SUP,

That wasn't me.

Hello, I've been making a few guitar straps from veg tan and would like to look into adding some type lining to the underside. It seems like chrome tan or suede might be softer without making them stiffer but I'm concerned about finishing the edges. Any tips or suggestions are appreciated! Mike

I've been there several times. I work in Birmingham and run down there on my lunch break sometimes.

Hi, My name is Mike. Thanks for allowing me to join your forum. I have been dabbling with leather for a year or so now. Started out wanting to make a sheath for an old Ka-Bar knife I got from my Uncle. Next was a guitar strap from a store bought, pre-dyed strap that turned pretty good. I have since nearly gone through one 7/8 and one 2/3 economy sides exploring different projects. When I began I no intentions of doing any carving or stamping but that didn't last long. Lately I've been making some guitar and mandolin straps from veg tan. I started searching the ole webs for ways to line the interiors of my straps and good old google brought me here. looking forward to hanging out and getting to know some of you! Mike
