john's straps




john came over monday and we worked on a little better prototype of his camera straps. it was good to start doing some collaboration, and start using the 2nd floor work space. this also just confirmed how i pretty much have to get another sewing machine. the singer is rad, but not happenin' for the thicker stuff, this stuff was pushing its limits.

the soft goods stuff is continuing to fascinate me as well. it so challenging, not like anything i'm used to. its also interesting to me how much i was frustrated with the thing, until it was finished. i mean, its still very much a prototype, but one can start to feel alot from the thing in your hand. just so much different than metal or plastic. maybe just because i'm so unused to it.

its also nice working with johnny, because you feel famous with your own personal paparazzi. he just picks up cameras and shoots pictures all the freakin time. i love it!

anyways, i was pumped, hope this can start to foster this studio atmosphere i've been wanting to recreate for years....
