Members Madmax500000 Posted September 9, 2018 Members Report Posted September 9, 2018 Just finished this shell pouch this morning it was a fun project. Loving the magnetic keeper strap functions perfectly almost didn’t want to let it go. Lol. Happy with the way my duck turned out. Never done any animal before. Quote
garypl Posted September 9, 2018 Report Posted September 9, 2018 Nice job Max! I like the keeper strap to keep shells from falling out if you lean over, but looks a little clunky when the strap is open and sticking up in the air. I wonder if a strap that swivels up and down (like the handle of a bucket goes up and down) would make it easier to open and close? Gary Quote
Members chrisash Posted September 9, 2018 Members Report Posted September 9, 2018 I always carry two extra cartridges in case I shoot and then called a no bird, agree about the strap, but nice effort Quote
Members Madmax500000 Posted September 9, 2018 Author Members Report Posted September 9, 2018 Shell pouch in action here’s a vid of the pouch and strap. It’s super smooth. Attached at the back with a screw post and Teflon washer and the closure is 2 1” neodymium magnates. I was a little skeptical myself when he said he wanted a strap on it. But sometimes things just work out. Quote

But sometimes things just work out. Seems easy enough to open and close, but what I was saying was that the strap hangs off to the side @5” when you are using the pouch. Just thinking it would look neater when in use if the strap just pivoted down to the front when shell box is being accessed. Still a very nice design! Gary Quote
Members Madmax500000 Posted September 10, 2018 Author Members Report Posted September 10, 2018 I see what your saying now I like that idea as well. Maybe on revision 2 I’ll make a strap that pivots out of the way. Thanks for the input always open to suggestions Quote

I was just getting ready to start a new shell box holder and I’d like to incorporate a strap that folds down - I’ll post pics when I am finished. Gary Quote
