Looking for friction? tongueless? slider? buckle

[blackmad]

Hey all -

A buddy asked me to make him a camera strap like the one pictured, and I can't find a comparable slide anywhere. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

David

Have you tried Ohio Travel Bag, or the buckle guy?

I looked at both, didn't see anything that matched - no spring, no tongue, ~1/2inch wide

Have you emailed them with the same request, and that picture? Perhaps the thing you want isn't in the online catalog.

Emailed buckleguy and ohio travel bag and were told they didn't carry it and suggested I look on ebay :-/

Try a Conway buckle (punch a hole and adapt the straps), or grind the post off and see if it works.

You might try something like this and cut off the tongue... https://www.tandyleather.com/en/product/double-bar-buckles-nickel-plated

That looks better than my post.  I missed the double bar!
