Recently i have moved over from day shifts to night shifts
this has presented me with more idle time when at work as once the job lists are done and between my quarter hour checks on the folk who live here i am free to do as i please as long as i stay awake,
obviously i spend a fair while mooching around the internet on forums and so on but i have decided to make the most of the free time and do some projects that have been on hold since the birth of my son(nearly a year old now where does the time go once you become a parent?)
most of my projects are leather based so i decided to put together a travel leather working tool kit
and here it is
pouch i traded for
two Awls one from tandy and the other my great great grandfathers
stitch marker and different spaced wheels plus ickle screwdriver to replace them
groove cutter
block of wax
black shotgun cartridge case holds glovers needles and saddlemaker needles it also holds the removeable parts of the other tools and the ickle screw driver
small pliers to grip needles with
white shotgun cartrdige case holds some artificial sinew and braided cord both wrapped around match stick reels and the needles i am currently using
this pouch could easily be transferred from wandering to work to lurking in my pack for longer trips where i may wish or need to be able to do some leather work
