BillB Report post Posted February 24, 2011 The bag you are showing isn't really a tool roll. A tool roll unrolls to a be a flat containing with pockets for the tools to set in and all the tools are visible once it is unrolled. The bag you are showing is more of a duffle or drum bag. The end seam on the right of the picture was sewn by pulling the bag over the arm of the sewing machine and then the "drum head" can be sewn onto the main body. It looks like in the picture that the left end of the bag has a removable lid, which where the arm of the sewing machine entered. If the bag in the picture is a high quality bag, there is probably a liner that was attached after the drum head was attached. That seam is under the lid and is formed by sewing the folded edge of the bag to the folded edge of the liner with the stitching capturing all four layers. The other way to attach the drum head would be to turn the whole thing inside out and do an edge seam. This would result in a different seam than what is pictured and all the stitching would be hidden inside. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
