Thanks a ton, I have another idea as an add to this..... It can also be used as a pipe stand unfolded of course. Very cool

I think I'll make this keyring this weekend, simple and I know a few family members that would love to have one in their Easter baskets.

I made a few using scrap leather I have, 2-3 oz and 6 oz, the thin was to flexible and would not hold up, the 6 oz is too stiff. I need to get some 4-5 oz and try that. Anyone else make this keyring?

[Redochre]

I've made a few with different wieghts and found that 3-4 oz worked best.

But I did burnish the back, dye it and rub some beeswax on there to stiffen it up.

I did a modified version out of 8oz that will hold a 7" tablet.

Thank you for doing the pattern by the way!

I made a few myself. For me 1.8 mm (sorry I'm from Belgium) worked the best.

Only one problem. I looked the origninal maker up on google and he also is guy from Belgium called Alain Berteau .

I decided not to make or promote any more of them. He lives maybe 50 km from my home and I feel bad just taking his design and make money out his work.

He is actually a great designer who won an award 2006 as DESIGNER OF THE YEAR. He has is own collection Objekten but he worked for companies like BULO.
