BearMan Posted July 20, 2013 Report Posted July 20, 2013 Hi Everybody, Here is a Guitar Strap for a local Christian Artist. It's the first thing of the leather bench in a while. He wanted it un lined, so I made it out of 10oz Herman Oak & it's 49" to the center hole. After tooling I rubbed in a good coat of Aussie conditioner, to make it more supple. After it dried over nite, I dyed the curved basket weave areas. After drying, I buffed it up with a soft brush, applied a NeatLac finish, edged, slicked the edges & sealed the backside. Thanks for looking,,, Ed the"BearMan" Quote

Members All4Christ Posted July 21, 2013 Members Report Posted July 21, 2013 Awesome concept with the basket weave. And the cross looks like real wood. Great job. The artist should be very happy. Quote
