Members dfrensdorff Posted March 22, 2019 Members Report Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) Hello All .... I carry a Leatherman Wave everyday, and could not live without it .....the “man-made material “ cases wear out .... so I made a few cases. Here are a couple of “lefty” cases. Pretty basic, Barry King tools, basketweave stamped .... but much better than a cloth/nylon case imho. Edited March 22, 2019 by dfrensdorff Quote

Members plinkercases Posted March 22, 2019 Members Report Posted March 22, 2019 I like the simple design and the tooling is very crisp. Well done and 2x on the wave for sure.

Members dfrensdorff Posted March 23, 2019 Author Members Report Posted March 23, 2019 Thanks guys ..... I appreciate it. The simple design is actually a tweaking of a design from Bruce Cheney. Quote
Members DJole Posted March 23, 2019 Members Report Posted March 23, 2019 A lovely home for a great tool to have on you! That is some excellent, deep basket weave there. Quote \D. Jole \ --> <http://djole.altervista.org/djole/Publications/Leather/Lindex.htm>

Members JazzBass Posted March 24, 2019 Members Report Posted March 24, 2019 Were these wet molded? If so, how do you keep the tooling so crisp and sharp when molding? They look wonderful! Quote Christopher J. Gordanhttps://www.youtube.com/user/ChrisGordan

Thank you .... they were not wet molded .... after sewing, and before applying any finish, I got them a little wet, placed the tool in, and then let it dry completely ..... then I applied the stains, finishes, etc. Quote
