Hiya all.. I was thinking the other day when a friend at basketball got a new strap from a well known supplier in London, and charged him 20 quid for the priviledge... and all it was made from was black webbing, a metal D ring and a small piece of velcro!!!!! (total cost prob £2)
I can make straps.. well I make allsorts of things, I make my own leather backrests soft calf straps etc.. If anyone needs a new calf strap or lap strap etc.. I can make a simple strap from £1.50. That would be a normal style calf strap with velcro. If anyone needs anything like this, ask me before you buy one!!! Shipping in the uk for a simple strap would be £1.20.
I can make pretty ones, padded pretty ones, normal padded ones, normal black webbing ones, straps that dont ladder your tights!!! Or you had a specific design in mind, or have seen one that costs a fortune for what it is.. let me quote you!!!!

If you think of anything else you've wanted but never been able to make/get.. ask me!

Yours,

Emma.

Spot on i will sketch what i need but reckon there could be a bigger market if you want it. Suggest you contact BWRA (Wheelchair racing) to offer service and also handcycling for seat slings, back rests and leg restraints too.
