I saw this on here somewhere...I think it was flinginga...who made one up. I have a consew 206rb5 so, I decided to make linesman loops for my rc harness. I used a seatbelt tether strap. I was easily able to sew the belt up to make the loops. The consew is pretty strong commercial machine. I had some trouble sewing the strap to the harness though since it was really too thick to fit under the presser foot on the sewing machine. I got it work well enough to sew some box stitching on...but kept breaking needles. I need to try a bigger needle. But for now it looks like it is strong. I followed the advice in the book on Rope on the stitching for the loops which are most important. I may just take some tube webbing and make some loops to slide over the harness belt to make sure if the stitches fail connecting the strap to the harness the strap doesnt end up in my arm pits.
