Keyring Pouch

[singteck]

A pouch for your keys :D

Made this one to try out the new hardware I've bought and also the two part rivets. Works really well. First time I am using steel hardware in my leather product. Given the choice, I would still prefer brass but they don't make these things in brass or at least, I have not found them yet.

Used rare earth magnets again on this one because I don't have nickel plated press studs. At least now it can be used as a fridge magnet :D

VERY NICE WORK ! !!

How do the magnets hold ?

I purchased some from OTB, but I havn't used them yet.

Your key case looks very classey.

Something you might find in Bloomingdales.

VERY NICELY DONE .

PS: The colors go great together, black & yellowish color

Very nice!

Very clean lines. What kind of leather is that?

[singteck]

Thank you!

The magnets works great. There's no stress on the magnets and they adjust to the thickness of the content unlike press studs.

The black leather is calf leather and the yellow is called lining leather. Both chrome tanned.

Hey Singteck,

How did you get the texture on the bigger key holder?

As always your stuff is clean and very professional!

The texture comes with the leather. I didn't do anything.

Do you have two rare earth magnets in there? Or one magnet with a round piece of steel for it to attract to?

I like where you backtacked the stitching. That is probably the one spot where it would be least visible. Good job.

Where did you get the key hook hardware? I did not see it on Tandy's website.

Thanks

btw Nice Work?

There are two magnets in there. One magnet and one steel sounds like a good idea..... cheap too.

It's not from Tandy. Got it from a local supplier.
