Guest FTBBTH Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 hi, ive been looking for a set of new collars as the leather ones i have are really bad as if they get wet they liturally turn white so ive been looking around for better collars, i seen how much some collars were selling for so i thought, why dont i make my own? so here it is, what do you guys think? and how should i put the holes in? i thought about a drill, but as its material i think a hot nail would do a better job, any advice at all cheers!

I use an electric soldering iron to put holes in plastic collars. That way they don't fray. Or you can also just heat up a nail! Quote Link to post
