Restraint Vest Project

I have not had time to write making instructions for this project as I need some time to play with the gear I make. So I hope you can use the pictures for inspiration for this project.

The vest is made from a mixed cotton/nylon fabric, and reinforced with seatbelt type webbing.
 

Construction advice?

I found I could not cut nice holes in seatbelts for the eyelets. The webbing was simply just too tough. I found the best way to make the required hole for the eyelets was to simply melted through the belt. The best method I have found for this was to use a copper tube of the same dimension as the eyelet/s to be installed.
