The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

 Post subject: 8 stripe sling webbing

Hi all
A while back I made a couple of slings
I have found some 8 stripe webbing. so I can get 10 meters for 62 dollars. shipping is a killer. should be enough material for 5 slings. for those of you that make and sell these slings is it worth the price? I'm in the us and I've only been able to find the correct pattern overseas.

TNwebbing is local to me. If you got a photo of the webbing I can see if i can source it domestic.

That includes postage, yeah?

I've made up a few of my own slings too, and Noble's worked out to be cheaper (my biggest expense was the sewing costs, as don't have access to a heavy duty machine).

Costs doesn't seem bad to me, I reckon just suck it up & go for it :)

So I went ahead and ordered the webbing material. with the exchange rate I'll end up paying 45.77$ us dollars.10 meters of material at 2 meters per strap. enough for 5 straps.
