So I decided it was time to upgrade my first and sacrificial strop for something a bit more substantial and a strop that means business. As a general rule I prefer to make something rather than buy it, a lot of the time it ends up costing me more than I could have bought it for but whatever.
i stopped by the local tannery in the next suburb over to sample their wares. i ended up walking out of there only having spent $44.90 this included a nice piece of Bridal leather larger enough to make 2 strops (didn't realise at the time), half a dozen pieces of Roo leather, 2 D rings and a bag of Chicago screws, I thought this was pretty fair (even though i read on some places they spent like $5 and walked out with a side of a cow)
Anyway this is what i ended up with and i still have enough of the Bridal to make another hanging strop and still 5 bits of roo.
