jeffrsho 0 Posted March 11, 2016 (edited) So I figured I would give strap making a try a couple of weeks ago and posted the results in another thread in the Omega section since it was on my gen Planet Ocean. Anyhow, I figured that I would make a new thread that I can add the straps I make. Anyway, please feel free to chime in and critique my work. Like I said, I've only started making these and have successfully made three strap. Here are some pictures of my third attempt, its an elephant hide with shrunken goat lining. Please don't mind the buckle as I have a nicer one on order. Anyway, on to some pictures... Edited March 11, 2016 by jeffrsho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeffrsho 0 Posted March 17, 2016 Threw this keychain together today, not sure I'm a fan of it. Does anyone have any suggestions to make it better? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boredpanda 1 Posted March 18, 2016 Are those stingray straps hard to cut and punch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffrsho 0 Posted March 18, 2016 Are those stingray straps hard to cut and punch? Not hard to punch but a pain to get nice straight lines cutting. The hide is tough for sure... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RussP 22,777 Posted June 25, 2016 Beautiful straps, but the slimmer/thinner keepers look nicer. Just my 2c worth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
