    | Which Needles to use for webbing? Lol OK - strange question I admit it! But do you guys know which is the best needle to use for sewing webbing and velcro? I am guessing it is going to be either a denim needle or a leather needle in the largest guage I can get for strength. My first creation has worked well - I have done a new wrist strap for the Shearwater controller for my Meg, my new wrist strap has an elasticated center section so when you put the wrist strap on and then descend you dont have to retighten your wrist strap at depth as a result of dry suit compression  Stuart |
