They are leg straps...and they don't tie into anything yet. I keep looking at buckle options and can't decide. I will probably pick up some of the ITW waveloc g-hooks to try.View attachment 5284
Nice work on the saddle. I don't trust myself enough to build my own lol. The straps that are hanging off are those leg straps? and if so what do they tie into?
That etsy link looks like what I used. The stuff is strong.Here are some links that i have found. I have been planning and sourcing for future projects Prices range from 6.99/ yard up to 17.39/ yard.

I will take some pictures and try to get them posted tonight.Do you have any finished product pics handy? Any with pouches attached?
First pic is of my son's saddle with bags attached. Second pic is of it attached to me for walking. Third pic is action shot(minus actual bow). Fourth picture is what I do with my lineman's belt instead of putting it in a pouch. I use it as a secondary tether at hunting height in case the primary fails.Do you have any finished product pics handy? Any with pouches attached?
What dimensions would you change on it?Version 1! It's almost ready for a test drive!
It is not @ckossuth quality...but I was doing alot of learning as I sewed. I will say I have a much greater appreciation for the price tag on a purchased saddle.
I do plan to do a version 2 after playing with this one for a while. I can tell I would already make some changes in demensions. And webbing color.
Now to pinch pennies for a predator...
Would this mesh tarp material work? Just saw it a harbor freight. Sweet looking saddle man. I wish I had time and patience to figure out how to time my wife’s sewing machine and start sewing.

After seeing how long it took me to get this one done...can't say i do. I ordered the mesh fabric the day Tethrd posted the first pic showing nothing but the fabric and balled up size. That was months ago. Not to mention, without an industrial sewing machine I'm not going to approach the quality of the Tethrd Mantis or Aero Hunter Kite.Any plans on making and selling them?
