In the works....
I like these steering wheels with RS / GT type centers but even the 360mm Dia wheels are a tad big IMO Honey...I'm shrinking my steering wheel. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) To be continued..... Oscar     |

Oscar, I really like the 13.5 inch diameter and I think most everyone that try’s one will like it also. I was shooting for 1.25 thick but with padding and leather wrap it ended up a bit thicker.
Are you padding and what did you use? Can’t quite tell what stitch you used from the pictures This was a fun project but I will not do another one. The stitching ( I used the basic cross stitch) took way longer and was much harder than I anticipated. Sore hands for a day or two. Nice work. PS - the bumper I got from you looks great, I’ll post a couple of installed pix in a separate thread. Thanks |
