Wet moulded bag

[MikeDB]

Ok, perhaps it's not very 'bushcrafty' but SWMBO did ask nicely and it was fun to make too.

Not finished yet and I still need to make the strap and finish off the polishing.

Not sure I want to try wet moulding anything much bigger at the mo but it seems to have worked out ok.

Thanks and have a good weekend

Very nice!
Why do you say it is not Bushy? Cracking possibles pouch!

 

[Pitkin]

Like Jon says cracking possibles pouch, well done looks great, I'd have been well chuffed if i had a go and it came out as good as that. I would look forward to using that.

 

[fred gordon]

Yes I agree a great piece of work SWMBO should be very happy, or a possibles pouch as has been said!

 

[fishfish]

ooooooooooo very nice! how about a tutorial!

 

[Big John]

Very nice work Mike, well done.

That's a very nice possible's bag. Perhaps you could add a few "cute" bushcrafty things in it for SWMBO to try to convert her to bushcraft You could always nick them back if she does not use them
Maybe a cute SAK and a mini firesteel???

 

[MikeDB]

Thanks guys. I'll keep SWMBO on the conversion list. At least she has agreed that the lavvu was a good idea now

And at last I found time to finish it.

Sore of hand but a good learning experience all the same.

Thanks so much for the compliment however SWMBO would kill me!

SWMBO is a term more used on BritishBlades. She Who Must Be Obeyed.

I won't be using it but my wife will, tis her new handbag

Cheers mate

out of interest what did you use to mould it around?

It was moulded initially round a 12"x8" catering steel oval veg dish then the inner curves at the top were moulded by hand/eye.
