Quote History Quoted:Truthfully that is great!
I have a couple of originals in my millitaria collection and the canvas straps work just fine and don't know why the elastic was used by SOS and the other vendor since it will wear out. Plus theirs is glued over cardboard. Which neither of the originals I own have any cardboard, just stiff or double thickness canvas. You should get the portable razor and blade box so she can fit the strapping to the one you'll use.
Can she use a sewing machine? If so it should be an easy project.

Thanks. I do love my little girl. We almost lost her when she was born. Had the life flight been postponed another hour she would have never lived to see 2 days old.
I will send this to her so she can start on this one with the cloth straps instead.
I will also give her my stuff for proper fit as well. That is a great idea. Thanks fort the heads up about the double canvas.
She can. My wife and I have moved her up to a little kids size sewing machine. Not a full size but it is a real one.
She it's also learning from some ladies at church about knitting and crocheting (sp?)
My MIL is here now and she also loves sewing. So my daughter will get some guidence and help. That love bypassed my wife. LOL!
So, it is neat to see my daughter learning from others. We homeschool so this helps her to learn how to work with and whether follow and or communicate with others besides her immediate family.
