Members Fire88 Posted September 27, 2017 Members Report Posted September 27, 2017 Very nice I've never seen the pull tabs done before Quote
Members swellco Posted October 11, 2017 Members Report Posted October 11, 2017 Very Nice!! I have one of those wallets I bought online. Fell apart in 6 months. Got another replacement and edges started fraying in 3 months. This is the wallet I want to make. Would you mind sharing plans or how it was done? Quote
Members Jbrandon Posted October 12, 2017 Author Members Report Posted October 12, 2017 Well as far as plans for making one I just looked over the one my friend had. Much like yours it was coming apart. Then I just built it. I'm the world's worst at not making a keeper pattern or template for future use. I only make one about 50% of the time. Really it's just a piece of 4-5 oz. leather sewn to another piece of 2-3 oz leather with the straps sewn in place it's pretty simple to make. Quote
Members swellco Posted October 19, 2017 Members Report Posted October 19, 2017 (edited) Thanks for the reply. I actually figured it out after I posted. Lazy me. I took it apart and now have a good idea of what to do. I like the leather piece you put on the tab pull out. Where did you get the money clip? Most the ones I see would stick out the sides.
