Looking for ideas on making seat belts. I've used masking tape but I know there are better techinques.

Thank you for help!

The belts on this P-40 were made using foil from a cigarette pack, but the buckles are PE from the kit. Others use the foil from around the neck of wine bottles.

I've made seat belts for aircraft and ALICE suspenders for 1/35 figures from lead foil that I got from my dentist (they're used to protect the x-ray film prior to use and get thrown away when finished).
