Members Halitech Posted January 11, 2016 Members Report Posted January 11, 2016 This started out as a natural guitar strap with a verse from a song hand written in ink with the treble clef carved into it. I screwed up and somehow got some red dye on the front so I had to redo the strap. I ordered some python print from SLC and decided to cut out the area where the words were originally and use the python as an inlay. Body of the strap is 7oz (skived down from 9oz) with a 2oz pigskin liner. I had a hard time getting all the resolene off so I used vinegaroon to make it black. It did an okay job but still hit it with some black dye to give it a brighter black. All hand sewn with saddle stitch using 0.030" black thread from Maine Thread Co. Quote
Members Chief Filipino Posted January 14, 2016 Members Report Posted January 14, 2016 Looks good. I would love to see it in all its glory though, perhaps another picture of it not rolled up? Quote

Members Halitech Posted January 17, 2016 Author Members Report Posted January 17, 2016 Had to take 2 separate pics, too long to get it all in 1 and still show any details Quote
