firetoad Report post Posted February 23, 2013 I have done some slobber straps before along with holsters, knife sheaths, straps and the like. But, I have never gotten into doing any stamping on my projects. So, all in I went! My first stamping project and latest set of slobber straps for your viewing pleasure and/or critique... The dye went a little darker than I wanted, but it turned out usable for me. BTW, I also made the set of mecates that are pictured (I tie my own halters, lead ropes and mecates too).

pete Report post Posted February 23, 2013 what did you braid that mecate out of? pete Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firetoad Report post Posted February 23, 2013 Sorry, I should have been more clear (or maybe I am being too dense now, sorry if I am). I actually didn't braid the mecates. I just did the end splices and added the poppers. They were made out of Samson 1/2" EQ Braid, double-braided polyester, rope. The value of the rope is great, price per foot vs. quality. I like the feel of New England Rope's 1/2" double-braid, but it is more than twice the price! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
