Eyeglass case

Recommended Posts

Since I only need my glasses for reading, whenever I'm wearing a shirt with no pockets I was constantly leaving my glasses in the other room.  I finally broke down and made myself a case that I can clip to my belt when necessary.  There are a few things that I'll do differently if I ever do another one, but on the whole I like it.

Nice work!

I've been trying to think up a way to do this as well.  Easy to use over and over and over, without scratching the lenses, or getting crushed when I'm working, or scraping up my belt...or not falling out when I'm working... etc etc.  So I just leave the glasses in the other room year after year.

Thanks.  It's lined with glazed pigskin. I think it is smooth enough to not scratch the lens.

Thanks.  I got tired of having to go back and find them so I cam up with this.  The leather seems to be stiff enough to protect my glasses from crushing,  and the flap keeps them from falling out.  I can't say the clip won't scrape my belt though and it doesn't really hold as secretly as i would like,  so one of the changes I would make next time would be to use a belt loop with a snap instead. But again it seems too work well enough for now.

It works better than the one I don't have!  suffering from analysis paralysis here.  Thanks for the tips, I'll include them in my cogitations.
