Members Spider Posted January 12, 2009 Members Report Posted January 12, 2009 I know a few people have done this but I thought I'd give it a try. I will carry this but also work it as a sample of what I do. Let me know what you think. It measures about 14 1/2 x 10 1/2 and works as a shoulder bag. I might make dividers or some kinda cases for the stuff to secure better inside....or not. Quote

Thank you for the reasurance that i am doing the right thing. Nice would love to give that to someone as a gift. So cool! Wow that is a great compliment. I love when people see my work as something to give. Makes it worth the work. Now come home and make some cool stuff. Quote

Members Go2Tex Posted January 15, 2009 Members Report Posted January 15, 2009 (edited) Looks nice and firm on the sides. What did you use for stiffener material, if I might ask? Aslo, how did you attach the sides to each other? I don't see stitching or anything. Edited January 15, 2009 by Go2Tex Quote
AndyL1 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 Hell yeah dude! That thing is wicked! i love that wood-look tooling that you do. Nice style. Quote

Aslo, how did you attach the sides to each other? I don't see stitching or anything. Hey Go2Tex, I did not use any stiffener in between the layers. Since the sides are attached to the bottom it creates a strong structure. I'll try to post a Pattern so you can see. The sides are then glued with small flaps inside and stitched along the top. Hell yeah dude! That thing is wicked! i love that wood-look tooling that you do. Nice style. Thank you Andy. I love how this comes out on leather and people are surprised that it's leather and not wood. Funny wiggly lines and a few knots. Quote
