Fierce Critter Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I was checking out YouTube and, ya know, they've got a TON of how-to videos on sewing. I've only looked at a few thusfar. But there's even a chick with a couple vids on how to make "Raver Pants". She's actually pretty good, though I don't think she showed what they look like finished... Go to YouTube and search "sewing". Here's part 1 of the Raver Pants chick: Raver Pants part 1 There's a part 2, and also a "pattern" one, which is probably where she shows what they'll look like.
Sybil Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! You ROCK Lovely Lady!!! *gonna go see what I can find* I am teaching myself right now.. My boyfriend Paul knows how to do EVERYTHING including sew.. If I need something altered from now on I want to do it myself.. ..plus I bought patterns.. ..for coats, gloves, pants, skirts.. I know myself, I will be designing in no time.. THANKS for posting this..
Fierce Critter Posted August 24, 2007 Author Posted August 24, 2007 You're welcome. I made fingerless gloves before. It's a pain in the ass, but doable. I got a glove pattern from one of the popular companies, and just trimmed the pattern down and folded over a seam just before the knuckle. Sigh. I should clean up the freaking "art" room and start sewing again.

I'm so not happy about having the ass split in my favorite pair though....
Scary Guy Posted August 26, 2007 Posted August 26, 2007 among other how to videos... target="_blank an actual how to video Also for pad locks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iZXYZ-1HAU&NR=1 kensington (laptop) locks http://youtube.com/watch?v=3M8D4wWYgsc fingerprint scanners The best locks these days are electronic with either chips in the keys (most newer luxury cars) buttons, swipe cards, RFID readers, etc... http://www.hackaday.com/2007/07/17/cell-ph...lled-door-lock/ and don't forget http://www.hackaday.com/2007/06/11/knock-r...ic-door-opener/ linked to in the above
sass_in_the_pants Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 Since we're kind of on the subject... there's also a website called etsy.com. It's ebay for the crafty-type. It's got pretty cute stuff.
Destroit Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 among other how to videos... Yess...this'll be me all up in everyone's house: SHHH....donut tell n.e. one, 'tis for secret! Dang, they beat me to the how-to thingy with fashion. I was gonna do that and put it on here actually, rather than youtube, but since I am a student SLAVE now that school started back up, my freetime was eliminated by 89%. So I kinda feel like I let down my little fashion forum. Sorry, I'm a bad mod ... I'll get to it sooner or later. Someday peoples....someday I was gonna do tons of weird little how to things, like DIY stuff, dread making stuff, sewing kinda stuff, little accessories kinda stuff.

Scary Guy Posted August 27, 2007 Posted August 27, 2007 How To Dance And Kill Babies At Same Time How bout only useful how-to vids? Not that it wasn't funny though.
Destroit Posted August 31, 2007 Posted August 31, 2007 How To Dance And Kill Babies At Same Time BWHAHAHA omfg...that made my day. Scary Guy, who says that's not useful?
Scary Guy Posted September 2, 2007 Posted September 2, 2007 BWHAHAHA omfg...that made my day. Scary Guy, who says that's not useful? Oh don't get me wrong, I'm all for baby killing. But it's not like he was TRYING to do that. If someone wants to post up how-to videos on karate, kung fu, judo, thaiquando, ninjitsu, or any of that other crazy shit I know nothing about go right ahead. I guess it could be fashionable to be throwing out moves but I think it more closely resembles and would belong in the art related subforum. Even the lock picking doesn't really belong here and this has gotten way WAY off topic/probably should be split off.

I used some spare t-shirt material that I had laying about and stretched it a little around my hand and up my arm and pinned it then sewed along the pins, leaving a thumb hole! It would have been easier if I had someone else pinning, but they turn out quite nicely, and there's only one seam!
