Re: leather piping
Just received the revised piping. Made some adjustments. Let me know your comments. Again, it is about 1 1/2 millimeter thick. Let me know what you guys think.

Re: leather piping
Looks good to me. I'd be happy with that piping on my vest. Give it the green light.

Re: leather piping
I would like a little more feedback, but PM me for orders. Please remember, it will not be a continous 5 yards we need. I can do five differnt pieces and they can me matched up for our use. Right now it is $35 for 5 yards of the piping plus shipping. PM me with interests

Re: leather piping
Ok, here are the final numbers for this piping:
We have figured you will need about 5 yards for a full vest. Since mine does not come in continuous roll and are in strips (about 1.4 yards each strip), I will sell in a bundle of 7 strips. This way, when you piece the strips together, you will have extra yardage to work with.
Final prices:
SHIPPED ANYWHERE IN THE US: $43.00 (this includes shipping) for the bundle
SHIPPED ANYWHERE OVERSEAS: $52.00 (this includes shipping) for the bundle
I think these are fair prices, and I think they are very close to screen acurate. PM me with inquiries and please let me know comments.

Re: leather piping
what's the thickness on these?
not the width; i'm trying to get at if it feels like garment leather, or is it stiff?

Re: leather piping
It is about 1 1/2 millimeter thick. It is a soft synthetic leather. It is not stiff and is actualy made in the same place many leather garments are made.

Re: leather piping
I went home lastnight and using the 4pcs that I got as samples, I used my SATANS MOTHERS vest (the only vest I had around) and using the 4 strips has almost enough to do the whole vest. The 6-7 pcs I will be sending should cover a vest and have some left over for other projects. I have not received any enquiries so the 4pcs I have might be all that is made (I may have them send me a few more pcs so I can make sure I have enough).

Re: leather piping
Can you get these made up any time you want or is it only for a limited period?
I'm still looking for a starter vest to convert so i'll eventually need some piping. It won't be till the new year before I purchase anything tho.
