My first DIY sporran straps

Edit: more pics in action

Hi all,

Well, I've done it... I have documented it so that you could all see how tough and difficult this project was.

On to the first picture:

I got the sporrans on sale at SWK. Black and brown. I don't like the chain straps, so I got a woman's belt from Wa;mart. (in black and brown)
Paid 15$CAN each (I'm considering getting some more in case they break)

I recycled the clips from the chain strap...

Third and fourth pictures


Before and after shots of a delicate operation. Took a pair of old broken scissors just in case.(actually, it's all I have.... I have to get some appropriate tools). I basically let the scissors loose on the first link. Then I had to wrestle to get control of them before they made a mess of things...

The Result...

Sixth and final picture

I now have a good looking strap that is adjustable. I have no buckle to snag at my kilt. It's a bit fancier that just a plain strap, but then again, I am wearing a kilt....

So, there it is, my first DIY, but not my last.

Thank you for joining me in my adventure, until next time.

Here's a few pictures with it on
