Boothill Bob Report post Posted October 13, 2010 (edited) Now I´ve made my first guitar strap for my wifes brother. I´m pleased with the result.

Somawas Report post Posted October 13, 2010 It looks very good. And hand stitching like that builds character and calluses. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomSwede Report post Posted October 14, 2010 Very nice work Henke!!! Did you cut the the slots for adjustment strap or use one of the horribly expensive punches? Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boothill Bob Report post Posted October 14, 2010 Tom, do u thing I´m made of money, I cut them :-) I used a 9 ounce leather and lined it with 5 ounce suede. The color is Eco-Flo Gel Antique Dk. Brown with a coat of Super Shene. It took me about 8 hours to make 5 of them is sewing :-( but i dont want to use a machine..... yet. If I want to live at the stuff I make then I think I needs a machine, atleast for the long stitching.. Tanx for all the nice feedback pards:You_Rock_Emoticon: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomSwede Report post Posted October 15, 2010 Figured you cut them, don't buy the cheap slot punches IF you're gonna buy. I bought one for about 300 sek and it failed and collapsed on the 6th slot. I dont know what kind of leather that one was supposed to cut through but it sure wasn't 3,5 mm veg.tan anyways. We need talking more, get back at you via Facebook when I'm home from Karlstad again.
