It's my second replica. I gave this to a friend. She will continue testing her.
More replicas are in progress.
I'm getting better at making.
I seldom shoot so light slings myself. But you get used to it. From the first model there is a test video. Unfortunately only in German.

That is truly a work of art. Fantastic!

I agree. I would love to see a guide on how to make it. It looks like the main cord just sort of goes right through the pouch to the other side. Never seen a design quite like it.

Excellent weaving! This is a work of art.  All of the stitches are perfectly even.  Very inspiring - can we have a tutorial or instructions?

Ein Tutorial wird es geben. Ich brauche Zeit dafür.

Morphy hat es gut erkannt.  Es ist eine sehr einfache Konstruktion.
Es gibt eine Hauptschnur.  Diese ist durchgehend.  Rechts und links werden weitere Fäden dazu genommen.  Alles wird miteinander vernäht.
Im Prinzip ganz einfach. 😁

They look good Mersa!

I was looking for an alternative for a leather pouch covering on balearic slings. This one is made of walmart black jewelry hemp. Six strand flat braid. Works great. Five strand braid might even be better.
Going to try square knotting one for my favorite sling this weekend.

Last pic is a 5 strand hemp covering

I've also been looking for an alternative to leather covering. Can I ask what your motivation is for that?

@ Morphy, leather is pricey and (to me ) difficult to work with. I would rather braid  Smiley
You?
