This is made from approx 2.8mm leather and it has a suede patch which is pretty non slip on the shoulder patch. Finished with black polish and Lord Shearatons Leather Balm.

I leant a few more lessons along the way.

It was going to be brown, but had an accident with the black Edge Kote and had to dye it all black. I should have put a bit of polish over the brown first, then when adding the black Edge Kote, it would not have bled into the brown dye.

I measured the rivet holes using much thinner swivels than the ones I would normally use. So they are a little bit to close together.

The stitching took ages as I only had a 3mm pricking iron, I have some larger ones on order now.

Air rifle?

Nice sling

I like how you used 2 chicago screws instead of one.

Yes started as a HW95 and has had a few changes.

Next time I would probaly still use 2 screws, but maybe in line, rather than side by side.
