DIY Webbing Tutorial on a Budget, Part 4: Learning the Crucial "Box X" Stitch
Thank you for your excellent tutorials!
Thank you so much for the videos. I purchased enough materials to make many sets of custom collars and leashes for about the cost of a single set. I'm also using the materials and your tutorial to customize rifle slings and other police gear. You're very helpful and entertaining.

One question... I am using 1" heavy nylon webbing. Is a Singer 44S capable of handling this? Or do you recommend hand cranking with a denim needle no matter what?
I'm new to sewing and am trying to get a prototype put together. This sewing shite seems to be the most difficult leg.
Thanks again. Very happy I found these vids.
And THANK YOU for the videos. They're fab! :-)

1. Sew the square of your box-x
2. Once at the beginning, resew the first line of stitching, this will lock the first pass into place.
3. sew diagonally to create the first leg of the "x"
4. Sew across the bottom of the box
5. Sew diagonally back up to the beginning
6. Sew across the first pass one more time.
You can adjust it where you please, including only having two passes of thread at the top.
Awesome!
