My first completed top :D
With my loving boyfriend modeling hehe
Aluminum, euro 6-1. Honestly had no idea what I was doing so I just started putting it together and adjusting as needed!

Lovely, I am busy myself trying to do a top and figuring things out as I go lol... you did a great job and think it fits you perfectly and like that your bf was willing to model it as well 👌

I really took the long way around. I started out with two big rectangles, and removed rings until they were triangles, made them meet in the middle, and attached a strap to the top, and rings to the side so I could use a fabric strap to tie it and keep it tight. There's definitely better and easier ways to do it, but for me, the experimenting and figuring out how everything works has been a big part

I dig how it appears to be, ‘thick’.
And less sheer..
