This is  my take on a traditional dual strap satchel. I used Horween's Chromexcel, Bucanneer and Casco horse front. The bag is hand stitched with brass and copper rivets and the straps were sewn on my CB3200. It has a removable pouch that can fit small items or a small tablet.

looks good

chromexcel is oily - will the cement/glue keep the lining?

The lining is stitched to the bag so there is no chance of it coming loose.

Thanks everyone! Now I have to make a version that can handle carrying heavy bottles of liquor for a distiller friend of mine.

Excellent!!!

I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with.

Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day.

From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Now that’s my type of bag and friend.

I'm still not comfortable sewing around the gusset with the CB3200 and didn't want to ruin the bag. I'm gearing up for some shows so I'll be forced to learn!
