SB56667 155 Posted July 16, 2012 Hey all, I've been stockpiling leather-working tools and just got the first of several vintage ammo bags I've ordered so I can embark on a great strap-making adventure. The problem is, I can't seem to find any good tutorials other than this: http://www.rwg.bz/bo...4&st=0&p=139619 There's an old thread where Luth was gearing up to make straps himself, and there are tutorial links listed, but they're all dead. Apologies if these are staring me in the face somewhere, but I've been searching for hours without much luck. Any tips? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
