My German Y-strapproject finished 我的德军Y带完工项目 by Panzerbusche on03 Jul 2010, 19:46 由2010年7月3日,19:46 Panzerbusche Hello everybody, Ihave just finished my german y-strap project and here are a description and afew pictures of the this process 大家好,我刚刚完成我的德军Y带项目,这里有一个说明和制作过程中的几张照片 It started of withme, like many others being unsatisfied with the reproduction y-straps out onthe market, they all have minor or major flaws and an original pair would costyou plenty plus using original collectors items in the field would bemadness(if you ask me). So I decided that the only way to go was to make my ownas I`m getting pretty good leather sewing since I started early this year. Iresearched the topic and found much useful information on this forum, mp44.nland got a lot of pictures from Peter Verheul(Thanks a lot!) 在项目的开始,我与许多人一样对市场上出现的德军Y带复制品感到不满意。这些复制品或多或少都有些缺陷,加上一件原品需要花费较大成本从那些疯狂的原品收藏家的藏品中获得(如果你问我)。所以我决定,唯一的出路是我自己动手制作一个,因为我在今年年初获得一个十分不错的可缝制的皮革。我着手研究这个课题并且从这个论坛上发现了很多有用的信息,从Peter Verheul这里得到了很多Y带的图片(非常感谢!) When the study ofpictures was done I decided I had to find a original pair in bad shape so thatI could get exact measurements and closely study all thestitch-work 当我研究图片时我觉得我不得不找到一个品相不好的原品来得到准确的尺寸和研究所有缝制工作。 I found a pair onebay and the project was a finally in motion 我在ebay上找到一个然后这个项目终于启动啦。
Original strapsdismantled and ready to be measured from 上图为拆除后的原带并准备测量尺寸
I got the leatherand black leather dye from a local shoemaker and Gum tragacanth to smooth offthe hairy side on the leather that was used for the main compartments. 我从一个本地鞋匠这里得到这些皮革和黑色皮革染料,然后我打磨掉皮革毛的一面作为Y带的主要部件。 The leather usedwas of pretty good quality and was about 3.5 mm thick on the main parts as theoriginal straps and belts. On other parts I had to use different thickness wasdifferent, I think I used three different thicknesses to get all the partsright. 这些皮革质地不错,选用和原品Y带一样3.5毫米厚度的部分作为主要部件。其他部位我不得不用不同厚度的皮革,我认为用三种不同厚度更接近原品。 German y strapsare very complicated and I decided to make sheet metal plates to easemanufacturing because metal will not bend or damage like cardboard would 德军Y带是十分复杂的,我决定用金属板材来制造金属件,因为金属不会向纸板一样弯曲厚损坏。
Finished templates(上图为成品模板) The thread wassome VERY strong linen shoe thread, you just can`t tear this thread with yourhands so I was perfect. All the thread had to be waxed with bees wax and thistook quite a long time. Some other parts had to be dyed on the polished sideand the thickness of the different leather parts different too. 缝合线用的是一些十分坚韧的麻鞋线,你只能用手工做这些线,因此我这些是完美的。所有缝合线都必须上蜜蜡,这花了我相当长的时间。其他部件,必须在皮革光滑面和不同厚度的皮革进行染色。
All leather partsafter drawing up the shapes and cut in to the different parts(上图为所有切割定型后的不同形状的皮革) I got the D-ringsfrom ebay and the O-ring to connect the main straps and the back strap I gotfrom some curtain hangers, they were perfect match both in thickness anddiameter. I then tried to match some grey paint with the color used on originalgerman gear and used a airbrush to paint them evenly. The conway buckles Ifound also on ebay and they were all painted grey, all original 我从ebay上买了D环和O型环用来连接主要部分皮带和从窗帘衣架上得到的背带,他们的厚度和直径都和原品完美匹配。我然后尝试调试出一些和原德军灰色一样颜色的油漆并用喷笔喷绘完成。那些康威扣我也是ebay上淘来的并且也喷成灰色,全部金属挂件都是原品。 The front hooks Igot from Mr. Peter Verheul and they are original so that was just perfect! 前挂钩我是从Peter Verheul先生这里得到的,并切它们都是完美的原件。
Back strap cut andready to be sewn 准备切缝的背带
The back strap hada flat hook and I dismantled the strap and tried to find something to match thesteel rivet that fastened the hook to the strap, the solution was an old screwwitch I just needed to cut a little and file down the head a bit 背带上有个平坦的挂钩,我拆除了表带,并试图找到一些相匹配的铆钉用于固定挂钩在背带上,该解决方案是一个螺丝钉,我只需要一点点削下来的头部部分。
Original to theright and homemade to the left 左边是自制的右边是原品
Making the flathook was a little more work but after a few measurements and some filing it gotpretty good 制作这个平面挂钩是要花点功夫但经过一定的测量得到了不错的效果。
