I made another one w/ a few modifications. I added a pen holder and a small pocket to the interior, tapered the front flap and a closure.

Are you glueing the sides or does the strap hold the whole thing together?

I love how the two strap bits are sewed together! Looks great.

No glue...the straps hold it all together.

Amazing what kind of cost is this in raw materials?

The oil tanned leather I buy from a local dealer in Utah runs about $95 for a side that'll at least 2 bags of this size w/ some left over. Then the rivets are a few dollars (from Tandy) and the double prong roller buckle was $4 from Tandy. So probably all said and done w/ thread, glue, and needles, I'd say $60 total in raw materials.

Thanks for posting that. I see the dewalt scrollsaw in the background, do you make cardboard furniture for proof of concept too?

LOL...no, the shop I have was arranged for building guitars, but turns out it's a good work space for leather work too. :)
