Want To Make Your Own Strap?

[DuDro]

I may try this soon...Cool project! I like the idea of punching just one hole in the strap so that it will only fit my wrist.

Thanks! I'm also gearing up to make my own straps. Tired of spending oodles of cash for straps that just don't do the watches I put them on justice. These tutorials will come in handy!

Any idea where we can buy online all the needed tools??? (If possible a European seller or website)

1. The little groover tool to make a groove around the strap where the stitching will lay

2. The "overlay stitching wheel", which you roll through the groove and leaves marks perfectly spaced where going to punch the holes for the stitches with the stitching awl...

3. The awl and the threads...
