MATERIALS
### FABRIC
roughly 100x50cm piece of non-stretch fabric (canvas or tarp work well, but it can also be a thinner fabric)
### ZIPPER
40-60cm long open-able zipper (can be nylon-spiral, plastic or metal teeth)
### ELASTIC
30-60cm of flat elastic (1-2cm wide)
### WEBBING + BUCKLE
150cm of webbing strap and matching buckle (or an old belt!)
I like to use 2.5cm wide strap and buckle.
### SNAPS
one set of snaps (hand sewable, machine-press or magnetic)
TOOLS
