Finished these up last night, If I ever come up with a sewing machine, Ill be dangerous.....

I got tired of playing around with scrap leather and decided to build something functional. My first attempt at spur straps.

Thanks Kate, I kinda hate to bother people who dont advertise repairs. I know guys who will make anything Id like, but refuse to repair anything. So I thought Id throw it and see if anyone would want to hire out.

I have a 16 plait aussie whip built by Mike Murphey that has lost the fall and broken 2 or 3 of the stands of the body where it tapers to tie in the fall. Im looking for someone here in the states to repair it. Im too cheap to ship it back to Mike in Oz lol . Its a backup show whip that got abused during muddy performances so the repair doesnt need to be perfect, just functional. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Joe

Thanks a bunch, Ill check them out.

Im trying to find a supplier that sells braided poly rope who has more colors than just red, blue. black, green or the white with the colored chasers. Something in the neighborhood of 1/2 inch or so. Im wanting to make reins out of them or mecates and have some great ideas for slobber straps. Thanks. Joe

Montana Silversmiths makes ( or used to ) the letters you are talking about. Every belt I own has them on it. I recently bought some from Tandy's, but their screws are smaller and break way too easy when you tighten them. Montana's arent the flakey silver plate.
