I had to work the jar in. Over time it stretched out a little. But at no time have I ever been concerned that the jar would slip out. I used sno seal on the inside of the sleeve to protect against moisture getting into the leather which is something you may want to consider also Yep I may use my go to and that is aussie leather condinter for that seems to really help with the moisture problem again thanks for the great pic and that looks really cool Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Windrider30 Report post Posted January 28, 2018 Two of three designs I have, thanks for all the help everyone. By the way the store idea that I am currently working on is selling the sleeves and mason jars, with a catch and that catch is I am actually going to be selling air...100% Australian ocean air, that is harvested by hand, just as the sleeves are handmade the air itself is harvested by hand...told you it was a crazy ass idea lol. I am sticking with the stitching to hold it together as I like that look a little better than straight rivets. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billybopp Report post Posted January 28, 2018 Years ago, the tourist trap shops in Florida used to sell cans of Florida sunshine for a couple bucks a piece. If you google "Canned Florida Sunshine", you find both vintage and new cans for sale. I'm sure they laughed all the way to the bank on those. Your idea is much better, tho. When the novelty wears off, it's still usable as a drinking cup! - Bill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fit is tight on the 6 oz, the 8 0z (as I am playing with thicknesses) is snug both hold really well 5 hours ago, billybopp said: Years ago, the tourist trap shops in Florida used to sell cans of Florida sunshine for a couple bucks a piece.
