askir 0 #1 July 30, 2003 Does anyone have a set of drawings or sketches on how to make a pocket for a slider? I am interested in tinkering with making one and would like some input.

rigging65 0 #2 July 30, 2003 Here's a rough sketch. The 60.0K limit makes it tough to give more info. Basically, the "A" and "A1" measurements should be about the same length, with half an inch or so hanging out below the "A" measurement. The "B" measurement is about 3/4 of the long length of the slider. The "C" measurement is about the same as the short width of the slider. Sew a piece of 3/8 (or so) tape down the middle with a double-needle (for reinforcement). Pre-bind the longest edge of the pocket...top end in the pic. Then fold the pocket in half, pre-sew the sides, then bind them closed along with the last unbound edge (bottom in the pick). Invert. Sew down the centerline to create two "cells", bartack all joints, then install on the down wind side of the slider, letting it hang off the front (leading edge). Hope this helps!
