CatfoodRob Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Hi folks, I'm sewing up my cummerbund . Using the latest discussions on here as a guide , I've made it 8 1/2 inches tall , and I've got five ribs in the front, one inch apart . Live got IB pouches , six high , five wide and two deep ...were getting there !! Im now ready to stitch the pouches to the bund . Looking at reference photos, the pouches seem to start an inch from the the last stitching line of the last rib . Is this what's expected ? One inch ? I'm not overly fat ( lol ) so this dimension will bring them to my sides, and level with the edge of the chest piece . the question is ...one inch ok ??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aliaz Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 A good rule is to have the distance be the same as the space between the ribs. Looks pretty good, maybe a touch to much space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatfoodRob Posted March 3, 2019 Author Share Posted March 3, 2019 It's an optical illusion .( lol ) .. it's a shade under an inch and a quarter , the ribs are inch . The pouches hang outwards ever so slightly , making the gap at the bottom look larger , a tiny tab of Velcro will hold them in I guess. One last question though .. designs on tank toppers , white dot I know is acceptable, and offside red square isn't ...but two red strips of electrical tape ..one either side of the circle ....is that acceptable, or had I better play safe with a white circle ?

Stroker Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Your almost there! The bund gave me a beating when trying to figure out the height of it. I ended up going with 9" it gave me the exact look I wanted. Also just to add my height is 6'5" weight 180-185. Here's my app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
