1/14 buckles for curtain side trailer

[frizzen]

Somewhere i saw a guy bend up thin wire into the shape of a digital 8 with a dab of solder at the 2 overlaps. I think he showed several ways to configure straps. I'm still trying do find the thread after a few days.

Anyway, grab needlenose pliers about the width of the ribbon you're using, and some thin solid wire. 1 jaw width make a 90 degree bend, 1 jaw width 90 this is buckle center, 1 jaw width 90, 1 jaw width 90 this is buckle bottom, 2 jaw widths 90, 1 jaw width 90 this is buckle top, then 2 jaw widths or just trim flush. Square up, glue or solder as required.

Easy way of rigging hook 1 strap around center leg, touch of glue, clamp with pliers until cure. Take other strap through top, over middle, and through bottom of buckle.

I think there was also something about glue strap at bottom, then take strap through top, around middle, back through top.

Thanks a lot for your help guys...

Cossett,I've used translations but most of the times I'm using a smartphone to search in the web and change tabs is boring.when sit on a PC it's a great thing to use...

Frizzen,thanks a lot for your explanation.it makes sense.I'll give it a try but if I'll fail I might go for the ready ones.they look very scale...

that site I told u about has links for different languages I cant read german either that's why I go to the English flag at the top and click that and it brings it all up in the languages u select

Above the search bar on that web site is a row of flags. If you click the British flag the site will now be primarily in english.

Thanks a lot guys for the flag suggestion...
I've searched the site many times for a flag.probably because of the smartphone it takes me to mobile version of the website that doesn't support English.
I'll have a try from my desktop...

What size and style buckles are you hoping for?
