We understood you don't have a camera, with luck Lightslinger will think to take pictures of both slings so both of you can boast how good looking is the sling you received

Don't worry squirrel! Like I Said in my pm to ya, I'll take pics of the slings and send you the pic of yours via email. Then you can post it! Just let me know when you receive it! (FYI, I haven't sent it yet.. Lol. I'll also let you know when I send it off to ya...)

Wait a week or two until after your guy receives his sling. If he hasn't posted pictures by then he probably won't. Then you post the pictures of the sling that you made that you took. Caldou is right; pictures aren't mandatory, but it's fun to see them.

I got these from blackfur2 today and is happy with them. It`s one Tut sling and one seatbelt sling.
I did a little slinging with both and the did fine, ammo forward and no unraveling

.
The Tut sling is especially nice of course, the woven pouch is beautifully made. It seems to be made from some ... poly-stuff, I think, and has a Turks head knot added as trigger knot. The seat belt sling is a well done specimen of it`s type.

Unless you don't know what SITH stands for I'm assuming it's not star wars related... An acronym? Slings in the holidays? (Christmas related?)

I guess the holiday mail rush has slowed down our Christmas SITH. Next year we'll have to start it earlier.
blackfur2, Timann is one of our elite sling makers. You were lucky to get him as your SITH partner. There's no set date for the next SITH. We'll wait for the dust to settle from this one then someone will start the next. If no one else does I'll probably start one around Easter.

I just haven't gotten around to posting pics, I'll see if I can do that today. Rat Man, I also finished your sling, so it should be in the mail and at your place within the next week or so.
