Thread: Bra construction woes

I usually use a bra in a shape I want and then replace the straps etc, but this time I thought I'd do it the "real" way and cut the cups separate, add foam at the middle, completely make new sides out of drill. Now I can't figure what shape to make the side straps and where to attach them. Them don't seem to lay correctly ,f:: grrrr. I'm thinking I might have just reassemble the bra into it's previous configuration.
I did all this because a while ago I read Damshe's post about making a bra form and loved the results (in the most fabulous bra thread of all!) -- I have the same base bra. The post is still there, but her pictures are gone. Anyone happen to save her tutorial? She hasn't logged on in quite a while.
Here's the post (it's #40):

Also, somewhere there is a I believe Netherlands site (maybe Danish?) with a good bra covering tutorial which I can't find again. If someone could point me to that as well that would be appreciated.

Am I just sol? Start over grasshopper?
