Leather costrel/flask/bottle. What do you really call these things? Anyway, I made two of them. Most likely for whiskey. :)

This leather project has been on my list for a very long time and honestly I was sort of intimidated by it even though I knew all the steps to making it. It was not at all difficult though and was a very fun project and now I can drink my whiskey like a real adventurer! 

I used 3mm vegtan leather and the final product holds about 200-250ml (7-8,5oz) of whiskey.

If you want to make this shape of costrel, there is a pattern with instructions, and even a file for laser cutters here: https://www.etsy.com/se-en/listing/1531790412/pdf-pattern-leather-costrelflaskbottle

@FarfarsYxa Yes, show us some pics and comment on details and construction.  Not everyone wants to go visit Etsy.

@FarfarsYxa are you the seller of that pattern on Etsy? It looks very nice.

A bit personal, but is your name a reference to your fraternal grandfather?
