my new canvas and leather pack
- Thread starter John Fenna
- Start date
Like everything else I own - these are for sale ... however the asking price is £500,000.50 plus postage
The entire collection!
I am now out of the leather and the canvas
Someone told me to get it dirty ... I am getting there....
The belt on the sporran doubles as a waistbelt to stop the rucksack swaying when crossing obstacles - it is not a load bearing hipbelt!

Yet another example of John skill and attention to detail. I would be honoured to own that pack its bloody lovely!
what with knife sharpening jigs and rucksacks and two dogs with his wool shirts.......there are some well skilled folks on this forum!
Im in awe....seriously ( and just a teeny bit jealous too!)

That's it John F. I am sick as a dog now...........lol
Oh not yet...
I have not shown my leatherwork, or my camp furniture, my flint work ... oh...is this boasting too much...
Don't get sick - get out and have a go
I have been playing with making stuff for well over 1/4 of a century now, spent 2 years at College learning to sew and have wasted loads of dosh making things I will never show here.If you want to get instruction and inspiration you could always pop over to the Members Market and check out my books on making gear...
Or just do what I did and get stuck straight in
Superb John. As a self confessed canvas-junky, I think this must be one of the nicest packs I've seen. Old world day-sack design with the world's best materials.
Did you forget to add 'lots of swearing' to you materials list? Or maybe you are more polite than me (I'm sure the neighbours hear me cussing when I am tinkering in the garage)!

Grief! NO!
I am not letting anyone near this set of luggage - if you get close up you can see EVER fault!
Anyway - it will most likely have fallen apart before the Moot....
It is all starting to get a bit grubby and "used" looking ... the pack even has a repair where barbed wire on the inside (!) of a kissing gate bit it!
