Very cool wraps! How did you make those? Thanks.
I just used the wrap pattern that is in the vamo thread and cut it out of leather, used a leather punch and made holes up the back seam, laced them up, then used Crafters leather glue to apply second color of leather over the first, covering most of the lacing in the back.
I'm afraid it's permanent laced this way, you would have to cut it off to get it loose since the second layer overlaps the lacing. It makes for a nice soft grip though and it's very comfortable in the hand.
I have added more embellishments since then and have some more ideas but I need to get to a craft store to finish them the way I want. Will post more pics once I get them better dressed out.....
By the way, I ordered Vamos from both Vaporbreak and Fasttech, both stainless and both the same week, the Vaporbrteaks got to me in Florida within ten days, my Fasttech Vamos are languishing on a dock somewhere in China still, so no matter who you order from, there can be delays, it all depends on the China Post.....I have ordered from Fasttech before and got my order in ten days before so it all depends on the mood of THEIR postal system, most of these places use a private sorting facility and that's where they can get lost in the shuffle for a while, but they do eventually show up giving you and excuse to order a couple more from somewhere else, giving you a hobby checking your tracking everyday to see which one is coming faster....all in all have had good experiences with both companies.
