How wide and thick is the belt?
The most practical one I have used roughly 3.5cm wide belt and, probably around 3 mm thick. It has to be thick enough so that the pouch folds easily. I also do not use any glue. Just overlap them as with the aussie pouch, punch two holes, whip on 2 cords and you got an incredibly utilitarian sling.
I haven't braided a sling since I started using these. My slinging wasn't complete until I discovered I love these the most. I've tride many types of braided slings, leather slings, seatbelt slings, simple slings, and a sling from Livermore, but they all sacrifice being good for one type of ammo while less so with other.
This design is the only sling (design) that I am confident throwing around others, if I have to.
I really hate spending hours and hours on braiding a sling only to find out it doesnt work as well as these which take 5 minute to make. I no longer find satisfaction in braiding slings if it doesn't lead to improvement. Better or bust
