Members noobleather Posted August 16, 2018 Members Report Posted August 16, 2018 Great sling,i like tri weave to but soo hard to line up Quote
alpha2 Posted August 16, 2018 Report Posted August 16, 2018 Looking good! There's a video on the net about how to line up the tri-weave, I tried it and it's stupid simple and it works! Quote So much leather...so little time.
Members rodneywt1180b Posted August 16, 2018 Members Report Posted August 16, 2018 Nice classic looking sling. How do you like the neoprene for padding? Quote
Members plinkercases Posted August 16, 2018 Author Members Report Posted August 16, 2018 I cut it so I wasn't stitching through it and with a soft suede over it was very comfortable.

Members battlemunky Posted August 16, 2018 Members Report Posted August 16, 2018 That looks great. I have triweave on my list of things to learn. I'll check out youtube for the instruction. Quote
Members plinkercases Posted August 16, 2018 Author Members Report Posted August 16, 2018 its really called tri and tri again weave......

Members RegisD Posted August 17, 2018 Members Report Posted August 17, 2018 Fine leather work. Great looking sling. Quote Handmade doesn't have flaws it's just built-in character.

Members ewayne53 Posted September 3, 2018 Members Report Posted September 3, 2018 Great job!! I'm thinking of making a sling for my grandson. What thickness of leather did you use? Quote
Members plinkercases Posted September 4, 2018 Author Members Report Posted September 4, 2018 That's 10-11 harness leather (not sure of the tannery as I get it from a friend with a production shop in Guelph at cost - not he usually gets his leather from south American tanneries) and thanks for the compliment.

bikermutt07 Posted September 4, 2018 Report Posted September 4, 2018 Great looking sling. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Albob Posted September 4, 2018 Report Posted September 4, 2018 That is a real nice set up there, those tri weaves look real nice. I just got an order for a rifle sling I may have to steal parts of your design. I'm just waiting to hear back from the customer, he didn't know off the top of his head what size swivels he had on his rifle. Quote When the poop hits the fan, we's all eleven bravos
Members plinkercases Posted September 4, 2018 Author Members Report Posted September 4, 2018 Albob go ahead..as Willy and Waylon sing "lets settle down and steal each others songs." The one thing that changed before this went out the door is a smaller rectangle "D" to help keep the sections in line.
