Members LeatherLegion Posted November 1, 2012 Members Report Posted November 1, 2012 I've made the same wallet with 6 pockets using pig skin for the pockets and it came out kind of bulky.I used lining fabric for this one and it came out way thinner even with the extra pockets. I use the spray can i got from Tandy again for dyeing and i am very happy with the out come...especially with the outside look Any comments are more then welcome Thanks ! Quote
Ambassador abn Posted November 1, 2012 Ambassador Report Posted November 1, 2012 That's really a great-looking design. And I think you did an awesome job on the custom interior. Lots of folks simply buy pre-built interiors and sew them in. Kudos! Quote
Members benlilly1 Posted November 1, 2012 Members Report Posted November 1, 2012 Nice design and I think it came out great! Quote
electrathon Posted November 1, 2012 Report Posted November 1, 2012 It is differant and looks great. I don't generally like differant, I like this one. Aaron Quote
Members hornm Posted November 1, 2012 Members Report Posted November 1, 2012 That looks great. Has a nice "clean" look to it. Keep up the good work. Horn Quote
Members jayjay Posted November 5, 2012 Members Report Posted November 5, 2012 That looks great I love the design!!! If you don't mind would you give the dementions of the wallet? Thanks Quote
Members LeatherLegion Posted November 5, 2012 Author Members Report Posted November 5, 2012 That looks great I love the design!!! If you don't mind would you give the dementions of the wallet? Thanks The wallet closed is 6/3.5in ...or 6/7in open. Both inside and outside of the wallet are the same dimensions. I just had an acrylic stensil made for the inside that i can use to cut the outside of the wallet too. The 8 pockets are kind of overkill ...when full the wallet tend to be to thick imo.I think i am gonna have only 4 pockets on one side and an ID window on the other side...just like the longer version(8in) i posted here not too long ago Quote
Members jayjay Posted November 5, 2012 Members Report Posted November 5, 2012 Where do you have the acrylic stensil made? Do you cut your leather around the stensil? It sounds like a great idea and i would like to give it a try. Thank you The wallet closed is 6/3.5in ...or 6/7in open. Both inside and outside of the wallet are the same dimensions.

It sounds like a great idea and i would like to give it a try. Thank you The stensil was cut by "PersonallyInspired.com" . I came up with my own design and then had them cut it for me. With this particuar one i can make smaller or bigger wallets...you just have to re-position it. Even the smaller bi-fold card holder i just posted can be done with the same stensil Quote
Members Horrrk Posted November 5, 2012 Members Report Posted November 5, 2012 Nice wallet there Legion..I like the design and the colours too The stencil is a great way of keeping things consistant..great idea to be able to use the single piece of acrylic.. Regards Phil Quote
Members David8386 Posted November 6, 2012 Members Report Posted November 6, 2012 Good looking wallet, and some great planning to be able to use that stencil for multiple size projects. Good job David Quote
