@hellaradusername 2 года назад

Quick spike tip, if you get finishing washers (they look like half a bagel) these are amazing for making spikes stand up without having a lot of corners that shred your clothes, I've used them on 1" and 1/2" tree spikes and those weird chunky 5/8" cone spikes, you can get a big box of them at home depot for like $4

Keeper backs for enamel pins. For badges I'll either sew through the loop part of the safety pin back or use a safety pin through the loop from the inside of the vest.

@salvadorsays 2 года назад

heres a fun maybe a bit unconventional but if you know how to crochet you can make the logo of your favorite band in filet crochet and then sew it on as the large back patch. in my experience 1-1.5 mm hooks and white thread looked nice when i tried it but maybe thats bcs all my patches are black and white

Can you make a video tutorial on how to wear multiple belts, the best way to wear multiple belts combinations of studded belt along with bondage belts

@reptil_diy 2 года назад

Definitely a good question. I typically only wear my studded belt and a bondage or a bullet belt layered over it. I wear my studded belt in my belt loops. With the bondage belt I catch the end through a single belt loop so it does not fall down/fall off. With the bullet belt I just keep a few bullet tips caught in a pocket so it doesn't fall off. I typically do not wear more than two belts but I know some punks go all out with three plus. I will look into making a short video in the future!

Coming back to this video after a while. Would super glue work as an alternative for shoe glue or is shoe glue the best thing to go with?

I would not use super glue it dries on really hard. Shoe glue kind of has a rubber feel to it so it flexes

@Rubber_guardian 2 года назад

Great video brother! You got any good techniques on painting boots? I gotta paint my old oxbloods black for work 😞

@reptil_diy 2 года назад

Thanks! I actually was going to do a video on painting boots. Personally I would keep the oxbloods and just buy work boots. But in the past I have lightly scuffed leather boots with fine grit sand paper, lightly rub down with rubbing alcohol. Then apply 2-3 layers of acrylic paint( you can try spray paint but I havnt). Then a solid coating of clear coat in a spray can. I actually turned a pair of boots into ruboff neon green and black this way and the paint lasted a few years I was very surprised!

@SebastianSeanCrow Год назад

3:25 I will always stick by my obsessive need to save EVERY piece of fabric. I still have the feet I cut off my Nightcrawler body suit. Somewhere in all my things is like a million pant legs cuz I used to just cut the legs off once my thighs ripped through them. I got a pair of good denim cut offs from my moms ex and they don’t fit anyone so they’re a good source of denim for me. Never know when you’ll need fabric lol

@gregorytruthan9399 Год назад

Question: is there a way to cut inside the seam on the sleeves and still keep the vest from falling apart. I'm a smaller person, and even most size small jackets are too big in the shoulders so they end up looking kind of awkward if I don't shorten them somehow

@reptil_diy Год назад

Yeah you can do that. I'd recommend sewing a new seam with a sewing machine though, or else you run the risk of the best fraying and falling apart.

@secretwow3459 Месяц назад

Hey man can you do a tutorial on studding over pockets

@reptil_diy Месяц назад

You can put an object inside the pocket to keep it open. Then you only stud through the first layer of fabric and close the stud prongs with a pair of needle nose pliers inside the pocket as to avoid studding it shut. 🦖🦖🦖

@karolarellano3253 Год назад

How do you wash it though? I have a huge thing regarding bacteria and germs(no idea why), so how would I wash it to not damage it?

@reptil_diy Год назад

You can hand wash denim vests and jackets in the tub with laundry soap and let it air dry. You could even run it in the wash on delicate setting and cool water, just make sure all of your patches are properly sewn on. I let mine air dry instead of using a dryer

@djkiltech Год назад

Fuck man. How have I never seen your channel before? I'm working on a metal kutte and this is a perfect video! Well except for mine is leather, so it's gonna be a bit harder lol

@reptil_diy Год назад

Stoked you found it. Most people paint logos onto leather( I have an older video set that's not too great) but If you're planning on sewing patches onto a leather kutte I would advise using a sewing machine with a leather needle. You can also hand sew with a leather needle and needle nose pliers as well but it's a pain. Alternatively some dry cleaning/embroidery shops will sew patches onto leather kuttes professionally, I know alot of bikers do this with their kuttes.

@anarcho262 8 месяцев назад

For leather sewing, you can put on some rubber gloves! Sewed this way and it was really good. No pain, no poking in fingers, no sweaty fingers. I do this for years now with large backpatches and it works wonders.

@zaccsonofjohn1132 2 года назад

Do you have any problems with your spikes coming out ever?

@reptil_diy 2 года назад

Studs or spikes? The liner I put in the vest in this video does a great job at securing studs. The lock-tite compound I talk about in the spike section of the video does a great job at securing screw back style spikes. I highly recommend both methods, there is time stamps in the video description

@reptil_diy 5 месяцев назад

I get my studs or spikes from studsandspikes.com, Amazon sells crap quality studs for outrageous markups, I would not recommend them or AliExpress. I handmake my patches(check the link in the description) but you can Google search patches of bands you like, or buy them at shows. Same goes for buttons. There are also a lot of online punk and metal distros/shops depending on your genre preference. Etsy occasionally has good merch stores depending on what kind of band you're looking for. Merch is pretty readily available for both punk and metal. Technically you could order a denim jacket on Amazon but I get mine at thrift stores or department stores for cheap.
