sibbel29 Posted November 27, 2018 Author Share Posted November 27, 2018 update: made the shoulderbridgecovers and started on the tank ( most time spent on looking into my stash of building materials to find the correct straps and rivets) ..The covers should match my straps so I’ll make them off-white with a fine black tea bath.. tonight I’ll try to finish the tank!Verzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
