Re: ghillie build

Impact, SierraWhiskey (two above your post) makes the finest suits you'll ever wear. He can make them to your specs: size, color, jute length, etc. He's made them for quite a bit of people on this site. PM him. He's GTG.

Brutus, suspenders are a necessity. On the rare occassion that you have to run in a wet ghillie, suspenders keep that fucker on your hips and off your ankles. While this suit will be used 98% of the time for nothing more than observation, I wanted the option to be able to scoot when needed.

Wil, she did the stitching. Why stitch by hand with a needle and braided fishing line, when you sleep next to a fashion design major? She's my own personal sweat shop!

Re: ghillie build

shaggy, i hear ya. suspenders are definitely a plus.
never thought about fashioning my own though. i've used a pair of flea market suspenders before, but ended up cutting them off as it didnt work like i wished.

Re: ghillie build

got a question for the guys who stitch on their canvas skids with sewing machines... how do you stitch the skids on the arms and legs without stitching through both sides, closing the openings? my sewing machine knowledge is minimal

Re: ghillie build

Brut you have to rip the inseam on the bottoms and also the sleeves,once you have sewn the plates on turn them inside out and sew up the inseams.

Re: ghillie build

New game "Where's the Wooky Suit" A couple of the other pics are even better. I only found me in them because I knew where I had put my feet, and which wy I was facing.
