Strapping Help!


Recommended Posts

Hey guys so I'm about to head over to JoAnn's and some other places to buy strapping hardware. Can you guys help in giving me the definitive measurements and things I need to buy? I have split rivets from trooperbay but I need guidance. Thanks

hello ricky!

 

hey man... you have to take a look over at the original strapping section..

 

None of the elastics are the ribbed non roll type, they are all smooth woven.

 

you're going to need 3 types of white elastic

  • Shoulder strap white  2" white (do not get the non roll ribbed style, just the flat stuff.)
  • shoulder bridge tiedown / Shin Hook elastics.  1/8" wide  white for tiedowns on top of each shoulder.  Strips for each shin with hook.
  • drop box elastic  1" white woven.

and 4 types of black elastic

  • 1 1/2" (if you're using snap plates.  1" if you're using brackets.)
  • 1" black for shoulder bells, biceps and chin strap.
  • 3" wide thigh elastic.
  • 2" wide elastic for bicep to forearms.  (thanks bill! )

If using snap plates  get 3 packs of dritz snaps nickle 5/8" and pliars

for the smaller snaps on the belt chinstrap and cod get a box of nickle mini-anorak snaps.
