Carhartt work corset

A place to be entertained. Videos, jokes, games, and more.
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.

Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Carhartt work corset

Post by Amphigorey » Mon Jul 26, 2010 7:27 pm

I built this corset for a friend of mine so she could wear it while building the Man at Burning Man. It's a Carhartt-inspired work corset, with interchangeable tool holsters, and it's fully functional as a Victorian corset. It's boned with 24 steel stays and is made from two layers of sturdy cotton twill in that particular shade of Carhartt brown.

I'm really pleased with how it came out, so I wanted to share.

Arrrggghh!! A manly woman.

Looks like it would get hot inside that thing. Especially in the Nevada desert.

I think I'm in love. I'm just not sure if it's with the designer or the model.
