I wanted to post some pics of some of the projects I have done over the winter. I have been inspired for a while by guys like JCLINE84, always89y, sojourner, gcr0003, jhunter13 and a bunch of other guys that are posting your projects. I have gotten the mercury 337 and the 15-91 using 138 thread and really like how they are working. The mercury has a servo motor and it is my favorite because of the control and power. Critiques, comments and questions are welcome.

Amazing work! Thanks for sharing! I have two sewing machines setting unused I need to get back to. I might have to hit you up for those gaiters!

They all look great! You sure have had a busy winter. And I second on the gaiters, they look awesome. Saddles look good too, but I think seeing something other than a saddle is cool!

looks good, but i would definitely double the webbing back in that slider....basically take the webbing tag end over the top and under the piece of top metal furthest from it

old school climbing harness use a triglide and they are not safe without being doubled back

@Weldabeast posted a good video showing this, maybe he can link it here

Oh yes I agree you have to double it back just hadn't done that yet. I haven't even had a chance to test the the last two saddles yet. I hunted out of the method clone last year but haven't had a chance to sit in the others. Once I fine tune the bridge at ground level I will put them back through. Thanks for reminding me.

@Sziggy2.0 I just found this thread, awesome looking work! Do you happen to have the pattern for those gaiters you made? Or more pictures? I'm in the process of trying to make my own but not sure where to start.

I will have to see if I still have the pattern. I do remember that my first attempt was way over complicated. The pattern is pretty simple.

Thank you! I can’t bring myself to pay so much for gaiters when I have a nice sewing machine and a lot of cordura laying around
