FredF Report post Posted March 23, 2009 Amazing work Santoro. You make really beautiful cases. Do you add structural reinforcement in the handle area the full length of the case? I see a stitch line there and the area seems a little thicker. I guess this would help keep the case straight when hanging from the straps. Is this the case? I'd say that you posted that in the right section!! That is awsome... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's a metal bar running the near width of the flap that provides support for the handle and O-ring. It's all designed so that weight is not actually born on leather itself but metal reinforcements. ed Amazing work Santoro. You make really beautiful cases.
