Members eatbeef88 Posted February 10, 2013 Members Report Posted February 10, 2013 I have been looking for spur strap templates and am having a hard time finding any. I'm looking for both one-piece and two-piece. The ones from that you can print out from Tandy are too small and the shapes are somewhat plain. Any suggestions or resources? Thank you. Quote
Members Dwight Posted February 10, 2013 Members Report Posted February 10, 2013 Tandy sells a "package", . . . big white envelope, . . . I disremember the author, . . . but you will be hard put to find anything better for starting out. It'll give you a good foundation, . . . getting your edge designs, . . . spacing, . . . notching, . . . all that needs to be laid out right or you might just as well hang em on with a pair of pliers and some bailing wire. Make a couple pairs of basic straps, . . . wear em for a day or a week, . . . figure out what you do and don't like about em, . . . then adapt the pattern to what you want. May God bless, Dwight Quote If you can breathe, . . . thank God. If you can read, . . . thank a teacher. If you are reading this in English, . . . thank a veteran. www.dwightsgunleather.com
Northmount Posted February 10, 2013 Report Posted February 10, 2013 See http://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/en-usd/search/searchresults/6015-01.aspx Includes several patterns and types. Once you get what you want working, ask blackriver laser to make a template set based on your drawings and spec. Tom Quote

Members Brazos Jack Posted March 24, 2013 Members Report Posted March 24, 2013 Try these out. I made them a few years ago and have been wanting some public opinion. They are made so the concho hides the spur button and look pretty darn fancy. Jim Spur Straps.pdf Quote Jim R. Simmons Etowah River Leather

Members camano ridge Posted March 24, 2013 Members Report Posted March 24, 2013 It's hard to carve patterns on bailing wire. Jim, good to see you back. Quote https://www.facebook.com/CamanoRidgeCustomLeather?fref=ts
