Trying my hand at a loom strop!!

[Diesel30]

Well I have always wanted to make my own strop and also to purchase a loom strop so I figured why not just kill two birds with one stone. I was wondering if anyone has a loom strop that they would be willing to take detailed pictures of so I can have something to guide me? I need to figure out what materials, how the parts go together,and other things of that nature. I already have a good idea of how to create it, just wanted to see if I could get a bit more direction. I will for sure post up pictures when I finish.
Thanks
Cary

What kind of finish to you use on the wood?

dependant on the type of wood,only the natural oils the wood contains and a few coats of Ren-wax,nothing more is needed.

Those are gorgeous! What type and weight of leather are you using if you don't mind my asking?

Loom strops, yes they are very nice to look at but do they have any advantage over a Bench Strop. Either felt or leather??
