Members awnova Posted January 24, 2018 Author Members Report Posted January 24, 2018 You guys are amazing, so positive! That's not always been my experience with online forums! More pics as requested... Quote
bikermutt07 Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 That is a lot of front to back depth. I like the concealed pocket. Quote 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.
Members YinTx Posted January 24, 2018 Members Report Posted January 24, 2018 Thanks for sharing so many more photos, it is certainly deserving. Easy to see a whole lot of work went into that! Neat design too, did you do the design work also, or is it modeled off of something?

Members Peter Darby Posted January 24, 2018 Members Report Posted January 24, 2018 That is gorgeous. Use said the daubers tended to overdaub, although I think it looks great like that. A little trick I learned is to take a wool dauber and light it. Let it burn for a few seconds then use a paper towel and wipe off the burned part. It comes clean and then makes a great edge dyer. It will soak up the dye but when lightly pressed on your edges doesn't allow the edge to sink into the dauber and spread dye to the edges. Quote
Members Double Daddy Posted January 24, 2018 Members Report Posted January 24, 2018 Goody, goody...more pics! Man, that thing is cavernous!...deceptive, even, in how much space it seems to have. Great material choices and design! Quote Have a great day! Chris

I found a bag Pinterest from a maker in France... spent some time with graph paper and recreated it based on what I thought it needed to work for me. 1 hour ago, Peter Darby said: That is gorgeous.

garypl Posted January 24, 2018 Report Posted January 24, 2018 You did a beautiful job on this project. Have you tried filling it up to capacity? Looks like it will stick out from your back about 2-3 feet LOL! Gary Quote Cowboy 4500, Consew 206RB-4

I'd say you did well with the graph paper then! YinTx Quote YinTx https://www.instagram.com/lanasia_2017/ https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLK6HvLWuZTzjt3MbR0Yhcj_WIQIvchezo

Gary This is the fourth backpack, the first one I kept since I needed to test the design (and because all the mistakes leap out at me) The top flap kinda limits how full you can go. 1st, 2nd and 3rd pics attached. Since I'm getting so much feedback here, what price would you put on one of these? I struggle with that, just as pretty much everyone does... Quote
