I will actually not be making velcro toggles. To be specific ill be attempting to make the toggles for an aerodyne nexgen that use a straight pin to hold in place. Thank you for the warning as well. Just so nobody is too concerned: step 1 see if I can make the toggle for practice sewing and fun, step 2 if it looks good and I used all the right materials (mil spec and or PIA spec, stainless steal eyelets ect.) I will get them pull tested, step 3 try them out for real. Who knows if I ever make it to step 3 the first step is more important to me.

Thanks for the reply! Just curious here are we talking about the same thing with the square weave? 1/2" seems extremely small for the width. The link you recommended even says to use 1" width square weave. I also measured my toggles and they are 1" as well.

I am going to make some toggles but before I start I was wondering if anybody could verify materials/ thread to use. Is 5/8 type 4 square weave correct? Is size E thread or FF recommended? Also, what is the recommended eyelet specifications? Thanks for any help in advance. Side note I have access to industrial strength sewing machines at school or I wouldn't even make an attempt at making toggles.
