SO glad to have found this, I am using this closure for the first time and had no idea how to add it to the webbing. Thank you for this clear instructional video.

[@SpencerOgg]

They can be confusing when using for the first time - happy to help :)

[@agmotoventure]

It’s about 830 and I’m in the middle of packing to go on a six day vacation and my buckles came undone. You saved me so much anxiety thank you for yours information.

[@SpencerOgg]

Glad I could help

[@maxflight777]

Thank you so much ! I’m a motorcycle guy … whose rok-strap buckles seemed to be incorrectly assembled! Thanks to your fab video I’m all sorted now !

[@SpencerOgg]

Glad it helped!

[@GaleaGodfrey]

Buckling a trampoline into the ground. You saved my butt!!! I was so far away from understanding how to thread the buckle!

[@juliacervantes7621]

For some reason every video I watched of this confused me aside from yours. Thank you so much!

[@SpencerOgg]

I'm so glad! Thank you

[@stacygrant]

What I like most about your tutorial is using a bright color webbing that I can see against the black buckle. So easy to follow with the red webbing. Great video!

[@SpencerOgg]

Thank you

Hey thank you so much I know this video isn’t intended for this but it totally helped me tighten up my dogs harness to fit properly 😂👌🏻

Aren't you lovely for making such a useful video! I was quite flummoxed by the buckle I had to afix...and there you were to help me. Thank you so much. I don't know you at all, but you've done me a bit of service and you have both my thanks and my best wishes in future.

[@SpencerOgg]

[@rynadrai4792]

Oh! Merci beaucoup pour cette merveilleuse explication tout au long de cette vidéo . Tellement contente d'avoir appris grâce à vous comment attacher et ajuster la fixation.

[@kymclinton3140]

I have had to start to wear a hip fixation brace quite bulky but useful and comfortable but the velcro wasn't stopping in place brought these and some wide stiff elastic and made my own straps I've just been back to the hospital for a checkup to see how I'm getting on with it my consultant was very impressed with how I sewed them he said it was much better than the velcro as I came out of the consultation room another paitent asked both the nurse and consultant why my brace was better than there he said the lady made thes on her sewing machine they both took my number after asking what I'd charge for doing there's and one lady is visiting me on Monday to have hers done the consultant said I need to start a little sidelines. Two thigh straps and two waist hip straps they took approximately half to three quarters of an hour to make

[@SpencerOgg]

Great - you could have a new little business! Happy sewing

[@markwhitney3746]

Thanks for this video as well...big help!! Can you recommend how to go about getting the right length to use for a bum bag? I made one, but straps are so long, the first time, the straps were too short😊....thank you

[@SpencerOgg]

Wrap the webbing around the person it is for and then add at least an extra 7 inches

[@lynetterene]

[@luchia4tom134]

i would like to thank you as i have had a bag with a broken strap for a good few years now, (what can i say? i procrastinate like a pro) and i finally decided to try to fix it. i couldnt use all of the tutorial as my bag goes through a triglide and a ring to make a single strap thingy. ive never made a bag before. its not something that ive ever and i do mean EVER done, so i dont know the terminology here, but i was able to fix it after watching this, and rewinding several times to understand a triglide. XD to be honest it wasnt as hard as id built it up to be in my head. but when you dont know how to do something or even what the thingy is called (turns out its called a triglide and if i say it enough in this post i might remember it, fingers crossed!) it seemed a bit daunting, plus a part of the triglide broke making me think it couldnt possibly be an easy fix... boy am i happy to be wrong!!! so thank you again!!! ^.^

[@kalavallid3140]

The straps are for paralysed dog wheelcart purpose. Heavy web cotton strap i don't know how zo stich . Or can I use rivet and button the cut joining ends?

[@SpencerOgg]

Sew the loose ends into your project Kalavalli so you don't have any raw edges. You could also rivet on, but turn the ends under first so they don't fray

[@berniecelee5062]

Thanks 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻. I subscribed to your channel. You make some really beautiful bags. I am a beginner and I am learning a lot from you. When fabric is on sale, that is when I will attempt making your bags to gain some confidence. Please keep sharing your vast knowledge and experience. Your fabrics are so beautiful….I hope I can find something as pretty in my fabric store, now that we are reopening stores . Will be binge watching your channel for ideas …. 😁 Stay safe and be well!

[@kalavallid3140]

Nice demonstration.thank you. How to stick the cut ends of cotton straps?

[@kalavallid3140]

Stich

[@SpencerOgg]

You can zig-zag neaten them or fold them under and stitch

[@Rob_Mike_Litterst]

Some things remain in the back of your head and rather than taking minutes to master it forever you keep telling yourself that Google knows anyway. Starting a fire, basic paracord knots etc... is knowledge you can carry without wearing it on your sleeve 👌

[@v.r.sumner9693]

Thanks! Do you recommend a cotton strap or a blend for the strap?

[@SpencerOgg]

I personally always prefer cotton webbing as its firmer and non shiney. It seems to give a nicer finished product, but it is more expensive. If you are making sew to sell items then man-made webbing is probably the way to go.

[@malley4747]

Thanks!

What about the other side of the orange buckle???

[@SpencerOgg]

Do watch the rest of the video :) - it is shown at about the 10 minute mark

[@atngaming2019]

I have a problem with the lock buckle itself, its very loose so a light pull will release the buckle lock, how can i fix this? The ending of both sides are stitched so replacing wouldn't be recommended, is that correct?

[@SpencerOgg]

You should be able to double back the webbing through the buckle again to make it a firmer hold

[@atngaming2019]

@@SpencerOgg its not the belt fabric itself but the lock when u close the male and female parts together, its very loose to the point a slight pull it comes loose :(

[@SpencerOgg]

@@atngaming2019 Sounds like you need to replace the buckle, this video shows you how

[@atngaming2019]

@@SpencerOgg I watched the video but doesnt really say how to replace a buckle from an existing product. Also the end of the belt is stitched, so no loose ends, if i wanna replace the buckle i need to open these factory made stitches?

[@SpencerOgg]

@@atngaming2019 Yes if the ends are not visible you will have to unpick and re-stitch. Hard for me to tell without seeing the actual bag I'm afraid
