A New Home For This.

This is on it's way. Is it empty? No! Greek Stew inside.

It may be a prototype. I now know what not to do.

Nice work Joe. What is it? Prototype for?

there's something historically appealing about having a real rawhide tobacco pouch.
I liken the idea to reading by candlelight.

I kind of knew how I wanted it to look. The problem was that

I did not have the right material. The MG patch should have been a

thinner leather. The inside pocket should have been out of a thinner

material also. It would fold or roll up better.

I used same material for the pocket as the outside. I did not leave

enough border to make a nice straight lacing line.

I still have enough to do other projects. The next time I buy

supplies, I will pick up leather need to let it fold easier.

Yes it does add a personal touch. Wife has a checkbook and address

book cover and I have 2 pouches.1 of them has matching lighter and pistol

holster.

[wildcat]

Very cool! Do you own an MG Joe?

Frank,

No. Al does.

I have done some stuff in friendship. Posted it here.reason ? Playground show off!!

That has created a problem of requests from others. The works I have done are from scraps

of material. Those scraps are gone, so that is the problem. The other thing is that the

work i do is not even seconds. So there are people that can do a better job at the same

pricing.

I created this dilemma and I can withstand the hard feelings that may occur.

Another lesson learned.

You're a good man Joe. I don't think there will be any hard feelings, at least I wouldn't 'spect so. By the way, I think your work is pretty darn good!
