Thanked: 993Homemade Traveller.
I just finished this little one this evening. It's 15 inches long, and the stropping suface is about 12 or so inches. The leather is courtesy of Larry, via his PIF thread a little while ago.
I ordered some Tandy Chicago screws and picked up a few D-rings from a hardware store.
The backing is an SRD Polyweb. I replaced the one on my other strop, so I cut this one to fit. I heated the end and melted the webbing so it wouldn't unravel. Then I took my cigar lighter, heated my nail punch and pierced the three new holes for the chicago screws.
This little guy works like a champ.

Very nice looking. I like the small length of it, are you able to lie it flat in your suitcase when traveling?

Thanked: 993Ironically, I got back from a little vacation last nite, which is when i finished the travel strop. I have every notion that it will fit comfortably in the bottom or on the side of my suitcase.
I think I'm going to put a jumper and a swivel clip on the top d-ring.
