And an easy way to make THE most comfortable bipbelt. Take a wide strip , attach the buckles, tighten around waist. Then mark and cut away everything that is not under tension, VOILA!
Jan 28, 2011 at 2:29 pm #1689495I love your logic and procedure. It is sort of like the artist making, say, a horse out of granite. He simply took away everything that didn't look like a horse.
Is that 2" strapping tape attached to the buckle or is that also cuben fiber? How does, whatever it is, work with the buckle?
Very clever.
Jan 28, 2011 at 7:25 pm #1689629yes cuben seems to work with those buckles , kind of surprised me.
Jan 28, 2011 at 7:27 pm #1689630i just stuck it together with tape, glue later.
Jan 29, 2011 at 3:36 am #1689711I don't see any adjustment. Was that the goal?
Jan 29, 2011 at 9:15 am #1689783James, not sure which you are referring to. but the top 5'' of the frame is a spring, hip belt, usual buckle/strap.
Jan 29, 2011 at 12:43 pm #1689838The bottom straps look to be anchored to the buckles. I don't see any room for adjustment. Ahhh… OK. It appear the one strap is longer than the other.
Got it! Never mind, my mistake! -
