Scale Racing Harnesses

[Naughty Dawg]

Is anyone making 1/10 scale racing harnesses? I've seen several pictures of rigs that have them, and I know some of you guys are making them yourselves, but is anyone selling them?

[offroadace]

No one sells them any more.
Here is a link to the thread that explains how to make seats and harnesses.

i made mine from ribbon, and metal shirt buttons from hobby lobby. only cost a few bucks for enough materials for like 6 sets. about 20 min to make a set including glue dry time.

Thanks guys, I'll try my hand at making some.

I've made a handfull of these using that thread as a guide. Mine took alot longer than 20 minutes, but for just a few bucks you get some great looking harnesses.

[Naughty Dawg]

I was looking through one of your threads, Hoosier, and saw a set you had made. You did a really nice job on those.

I just clicked on over to the thread linked up above but, the templates are gone and or can not be seen. Do any of you have the templates or any pics that you can share with us? Thanks for any help.

Here's some pictures of my second and third set of belts and a seat I made.
use 1 1/8" eyelet pins for the adjustment buckles
use shirt buttons for the center clasp
use 1/4" ribbon for the belts.

I bought everything at joann's fabrics. they had the black and an aged bronze hardware too. hobby lobby did not have anything but silver
I have made a few sets now. It just takes some practice to get it right.

Thanks m0nster for posting those pictures. Im going to give this a shot.

What is used on the ends of the ribbon to connect to the button? And do they actually unsnap at the button?

[krazyglu]

Thanks for the info on what size ribbon and materials used, I am planning on making a set. I like the little Simpson logo's they add a nice touch and monster you nailed it....that is exactly how the belts would lay with no one in the seat.

[m0nster]

just a drop of CA glue right where I wanted them.

I got mine from a guy on Instagram. His name is @rcdan
