JustWakinUp Report post Posted February 21, 2009 (edited) I'd like to preface this post a bit. I had no earthly clue how to set out on this project. Now that I've done it I've found quite a few things that conjour up questions. Hopefully some can be answered. 1) Laying out the strap holes to be punched - HOW IN THE *#&@! do you do that before you put the thing together. If you notice, you don't see the back in these pictures because I totally have the strap holes punched in the wrong place making the bag "ALMOST" hang upside down. 2) I had punched holes on the flap to do a lacing job but the single cordovan looked like a bunch of knots tied and didn't look very good. David if you could lend some info on what technique to use I'll give it a go. I asked Ian about a tutorial and he made a killer video but I had the urge to give it a go while he was in production of the video. Well this is what came out and if anyone could help me with the layout of these things before they are put together I would surely listen. Anyway, here's my attempt THanks for looking !

David Report post Posted February 21, 2009 Not sure what size your holes are, but I would try using lace that is TWICE the size of the holes. Make sure you have no twists in the lacing and it should be good to go. If you still don't like the look of it, try double loop or basketweave.
