Members Murmane Posted October 17, 2014 Members Report Posted October 17, 2014 I have been inlove with baseball my whole life. I recently had this idea that I could make my own fully functional baseball glove. I thought this would be a good place to start. Does anybody have any ideas on where to begin. Is there any experience or even just a idea of where to start that would make my day. Quote
Members TexasJack Posted October 18, 2014 Members Report Posted October 18, 2014 Interesting question! I don't recall seeing anyone posting a baseball glove. I would suspect that there's a lot of technique involved. I'll comment to help keep this thread active and maybe someone who has experience will jump in. Quote
Members Dwight Posted October 18, 2014 Members Report Posted October 18, 2014 I would start at Goodwill, or Salvation Army, . . . get a used glove in there for $3.59 or so, . . . take it home, . . . and take it apart. You will then know how the "other guy" did it, . . . and you can make whatever changes suit your whimsy. May God bless, Dwight Quote

Members DS STRAPS Posted October 20, 2014 Members Report Posted October 20, 2014 I'll try to look it up but on instagram someone is doing alligator baseball gloves, they look sick!! Quote
Members Murmane Posted October 20, 2014 Author Members Report Posted October 20, 2014 Thanks for the responses! Thankfully I have an old glove I can use to pick apart. And I will check out alligator baseball gloves. Thanks for taking your time to help. Quote
