I really like the look of it how thick is the leather?

So what kind of tools do you put in there -- Not sharp ones with no compartments ???

[pat h]

Its 15 oz skirting.  Basic hand tools  Electrician by trade.

Looks great! When attaching the sides and forming the creases, did you gouge the inside and still fold toward the outside? Thanks!

Whit  yes i did.  thinned the edges a bit also so it wasnt so thick on the sides.

[kiwican]

[pat h]

I wonder if that gusset design could be modified for a briefcase to incorporate an external pocket?
