Is that a 4" cargo strap under there? Looks like it would work!

Here is a leather one I made a few days ago, haven't had it tested by any bad hogs yet, we'll see how it works. I know I couldn't take a good knife through it with one stab.  |

Chris made me a leather one just like that one. Of course he also made me a pink ostrich model with the tracking collar already built in. Since I don't hunt buck and lizzie on the ground at the same time, that pink one gets used on both dogs. I just love it.

thesquealisreal this thread wasnt started as an as but as a what can you build for pennies We got the last roll of strapping from Mcoy's after it broke strapping down a load of lumber the buckels came off oldworn out collars the strapping came from old leads anyone can buy a store brand collar from multiple of dealers i am talking about hillbillie redneck make do with what you have on hand just to past the time away better than sitting around scratching your nuts while watching the tube  Dexter BTW the second collar i bought the buckles for .99 and the D rings for .79 so its kind of cheap past time other than sitting on your arse doing nadda toddles me again |

Dexter- My collars are made of 1000 denier nylon and wrapped in a ripstop sleeve and then I got the eyelets from my mommas sewing kit and used zipties to hold it all together! I made one with a couple old belts for the buckles but it ain't as pretty as these came out so it is a spare collar. I have had quite a few guys on the Hawaii board and friends that I run with ask for one but due to each collar being fit to a certain dog I haven't gone down that road yet! I only did these for me because I didn't like the way a 4'' looked and a 5'' was a lil to long so I made these at 4 1/2''.
