Spider Report post Posted January 12, 2009 I know a few people have done this but I thought I'd give it a try. I will carry this but also work it as a sample of what I do. Let me know what you think. It measures about 14 1/2 x 10 1/2 and works as a shoulder bag. I might make dividers or some kinda cases for the stuff to secure better inside....or not.

Thank you for the reasurance that i am doing the right thing. Nice would love to give that to someone as a gift. So cool! Wow that is a great compliment.

Go2Tex Report post Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) Looks nice and firm on the sides. What did you use for stiffener material, if I might ask? Aslo, how did you attach the sides to each other? I don't see stitching or anything. Edited January 15, 2009 by Go2Tex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't see stitching or anything. Hey Go2Tex, I did not use any stiffener in between the layers. Since the sides are attached to the bottom it creates a strong structure. I'll try to post a Pattern so you can see. The sides are then glued with small flaps inside and stitched along the top. Hell yeah dude! That thing is wicked! i love that wood-look tooling that you do. Nice style. Thank you Andy. I love how this comes out on leather and people are surprised that it's leather and not wood. Funny wiggly lines and a few knots. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
