spyder918 Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 I've looked and looked and even in a lot of build threads and see nothing. The strap coming from the cod going to the rear, (I call it the g-string..haha) where does that attach to? Is it snapped onto the belt? Is it velcro'd to the butt flap? 1
BikerScout007 Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 Mine is attached to the bottom of my vest, like so:
Chopper Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 Yep, mine is similar to Mickey's. Attaches to a little tab of Velcro on the back of my flak vest. 1
Stroker Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 Mines just like Mickey's. Most of us do it this way. 1
gmrhodes13 Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 Tab of Velcro on the inside of the cummerbund works well for me. 1
BikerScout007 Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 You don't need to overdo it like I did. Like the guys said, tab of Velcro is fine. I wanted to make mine adjustable so i used parachute clips. The screen scouts had straps that connected to a slider attached to the vest Sent from my LG-H872 using Tapatalk
M.J Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 Hugh just a little tip, when sewing Velcro to fabric and that velcro will be larger than than the matching elastic part it, use the loop side (soft), so the "slack" so to speak wont rub against your overalls, and damage them. On your elastic use the hook (rough) as it will be completely be covered by the loop side. Hope that makes sense. Normally I have photos but shock horror I don't this time. Oh and make sure its centred, when attaching. 2

The Wayner Posted March 13, 2018 Posted March 13, 2018 Well, I didn't go full Lancer with my "butt floss"! LOL I sewed velcro to underside of cummerbund and attaches there. Trust me, you can't have enough sewable velcro material, both black and white. Just go into fabric store and clean them out of all .5" and 2" velcro! LOL 2
