ShortBBL Report post Posted August 30, 2010 (edited) I would like to add a loop of leather to hold the popular fire rods... Like the Light-my-fire ones. How do you guys do that? Thanks! Edited August 30, 2010 by ShortBBL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hushnel Report post Posted August 30, 2010 I would like to add a loop of leather to hold the popular fire rods... Like the Light-my-fire ones. How do you guys do that? Thanks! I cut the welt for the width of the loop inlay, skive the loop leather so it is as thick as the welt, then glue it in, as I do with the welt then stitch it up. Seems like the way to do it but I couldn't tell you for sure. It works for me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't be afraid to make the boo-boos....that's how you learn. The notching out of the welt is how I do them too.....works fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
