Does anyone know a good harness repair place in Victoria?

Thanks,

I had a seat harness sewn into my waist harness, so I can use it either or.
I went to the Dr. Martin fixit guy on Johnson st. (Bosun's Locker(Paul, I'll see you soon) sent me there, thanx)
His machine was heavy duty enough and he did a good job.
I feel he charged me fairly to.
Just bring him the goods, show him what you want done.
He'll probobly do it right there while your waiting.
He acually got me to help when he did mine, because of the akwardness.
Asked me what it was for. I told him. He said "You guys are F#$%^&G nuts!"

Thanks for the info. I should have read that message before I went to Bosun's to buy a new harness for an arm and a leg. I guess I'll get the old one fixed as backup. Where on Johnson would I find Doc Martin?

In between Government and Broad, on the south side of the street.
I can't remember what the acuall name is, but you'll see it. It has a sign in the window "We fix doc Martins".
Nothin wrong with a new harness though, always fun to get new toys. :D

I've sewn up my harness and other hi tension stuff many times, using dental floss and usually 1" black nylon tape 8) To add straps just buy the off-the-roll stuff from outdoor stores.
