Bay Area bar tack sewing?

Looking to get a few pieces of webbing sewed with bar tacks. Does NOT need to hold weight, but I want to get it done by someone with an actual machine, not just the zigzag stitch on mom’s old singer. Anybody know of a company or individual around the Bay or NorCal that would do this for $?

You could call Narain's Outdoor Sewing & Repairs in North Berkeley and see if they have the capability.

Otherwise, maybe you could mail it down to Fish in Joshua Tree if they are willing... they make some of the burliest nylon goods I have seen, but the flip side is that you'd have to deal with shipping it.

Mountain Tools isn't very far.  Yates, too.

Another recommendation is Mark Tuttle at http://toegear.com/ near Merced.  Not sure if he can bar tack specifically, but he can certainly sew through webbing, and does excellent custom work at very reasonable prices.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
