What oz are the pockets? the whole thing is 4-5oz, i've toyed around with using something thinner for pockets but i really like how sturdy the leather i'm using is Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

abn Report post Posted March 27, 2008 the whole thing is 4-5oz, i've toyed around with using something thinner for pockets but i really like how sturdy the leather i'm using is I used to think the same way, then I started carrying my own wallet and using it everyday. I loaded it up with 20-30 cards and then a wad of dollar bills, and discovered the damn thing didn't fold! Plus, with the credit cards smashed in there, it was virtually impossible to separate one card from the rest. I was unloading 5 cards everytime I needed to use just 1. Your design is completely different from mine, so maybe it works better with heavy materials. But if you haven't done so already, definitely build one for your own use, carry it everyday, and make sure it works as well as you think it does! :angel_not: Alex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

abn Report post Posted March 27, 2008 if you have 20-30 cards though, you should probably get a seperate cardholder or a long wallet i would think, thats so many! I just counted and I've got 21 cards in my wallet, and it folds to just under 7/8" thick. (IMO, anything over 1" thick isn't going to be comfortable in the back pocket...) By the way, where are your wallets designed to be carried -- in the front pocket? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomSwede Report post Posted March 27, 2008 Nice going Corter! Shure are stepping up with your designs and how fun it is to see the development of your wallet projects! Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm hopefully going to have some time to make my aunt a long wallet/check book next week, if i can finish all my jobs for the week by like wednesday Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
