Members Windrider30 Posted January 29, 2015 Members Report Posted January 29, 2015 Ok this is my very first bag ever! Had a few issues like figuring out the Gusset which does bring up my first question. Question 1 I have seen some bags here that have what looks like a near 90 degree angle on the gusset how in the hell do you do that? I think maybe I did not cut the grove in the gusset deep enough so maybe that is why its hard to see a fold line in the bag. The carving came out ok I personally think as I am not that practiced in carving just yet. Now the second question I have is when you see man bag 3 you will see the flap has a bit of a snake like fold in it was wondering how the hell that happened unless I tightened the lace down to hard in that section would that cause that problem? I will post a picture of the full length of the bag, the handle is adjustable which I think was a neat idea that Tandy (yes its a tandy pattern) added into it. But that photo comes a bit later when the wife takes it for me lol. Quote
