leather box for tooling tools.

[luckylee]

i have made a leather box for some of my tooling tools, as i feel that they deserve a decent home, i made a wooden form out of silver birch, then made the the leather to suit. it has been boxed stitched and dyed with fiebings proffesional dye, and finished with a little caranuba cream, as my collection of tools grow, all i have to do is punch a new hole, then drill into the block, and there is a new home for my next one.

Nice...

...that's an idea I might have to pinch for myself. My tools all live in a tin tea caddy at the moment.

yeh mine used to live in a old plastic cream cheese tub, lol, there is a proper wooden box to house all these items in, but i think its 40 pound just for the wooden form, which seemed like a lot, considering you can just take a wood block and drill the required holes, and Bob's your uncle. the next item i have to put in, is me leather swivel knife, slipped me mind that i could pop that in as well.
