Next: scratching a fuel tank.
Today I'll just post the start and the leather braces.
I used a messing pipe and a pipecutter to make the tank. I'm sure there are other ways to do it, this seemed the best to me.
For the leather I've used a fake belt. It was perfect for this project, but very delicate. Tried a few times to separate the top layer and after a while, i succeed
Made two more little pieces and used very thin iron wire to make the steel part and pin.
After cursing the gods and throwing everything around, I managed to make something that is ok to me. Not perfect, but I know what went wrong
Next time, it'll be better.
