Default Another strap.

So I got bored and wanted to make myself a strap. Started out with the usual shoe lace dyed yellow with Rit Dye. I have enough materials right now to make 12 of these. Yea, I bought a little too much stuff, lol.

Testing:

The hook was made from a 1/2" common nail bent with some pliers. Not quite what I wanted but I'll try some rod next time I go to the hobby shop.

That looks sweet. The stitching really sets it off.
