Members ContractPilot Posted October 23, 2010 Members Report Posted October 23, 2010 I have a Design In Mind "See Image" Closed it will need to be about 4-1/2" Wide & 5-1/4" Tall Left Side 5-6 Credit Card Slots, 2 SD Card Pockets Right Side 1 ID Window, 4-5 Credit Card Slots, Left Side Inner Pocket Open For Receipts/Paperwork or Passport Right Side Inner Pocket 2 Credit Card Size Slots (Business Cards Etc) Card's will be fully Inserted and hidden 1 Money Pocket Exterior Material, Cowhide/Horsehide/BisonHide Color Black or Suggestion? Also Is it possible to lace the edge's with thin material? Option to add Chain? Like a 1/2" Oblong Slot On the Fold near the Top? Not sure what material would be used on the inside "no cloth" so it would have to be thin and durable? You can e-mail me or PM a phone number and what you think it will cost "rough estimate only" and I will call you and we can discuss the details. The Scan is not to scale but a rough Sketch of what I am looking for wallet makers may know proper spacing etc i guesstimated... hahaha...
Moderator Wizcrafts Posted October 23, 2010 Moderator Report Posted October 23, 2010 I would use pigskin if I was building that wallet for myself, because it breathes and stretches as you load cards into and under the slots. I have a black pigskin wallet I made in the late 1980's and it is still in my pocket every day and full of cards and ID. I have fresh black pigskin on hand and can make a wallet to your specs. I don't lace my wallets; I machine sew them. Lace dries up and breaks. Nylon thread lasts for decades. My pigskin wallet is over 20 years old and it keeps on going, and going ... You can contact me through the Forum's PM.

Good luck. Thanks, So far i am getting rather decent prices averages is about 70.00-80.00 which seems fare. I guess that they call this a Hipster style wallet!
Members ContractPilot Posted January 17, 2011 Author Members Report Posted January 17, 2011 Looks, Like I will have to find some leather and do it on my own "will be a learning process" but seems no one wants the work figures!!
