Great video, Ethan! I really like that combo of rainbow poplar and the dark leather. Now, you're going to enjoy that sitting there rather than some cardboard box.

Great job. I’m gonna copy you, sort of. Mine will be all leather (my woodworking tools are spread out across three states), and a little bigger to easily hold the tool rolls… but I need something and I’m thinking a flattened round duffle similar in shape to yours and with two leather dividers will look good. Thanks for the inspiration.

I just got into leatherworking! I didn't look up really anything ahead of time though and have been punching all my holes with that same belt punch you have. What is that that you're using under the 6 hole punch? plastic? I'm in the middle of my second project (I make dog toys) and it would go much faster your way. Great video! thank you for sharing!

That's awesome that you're getting into leather work! The pad underneath is a a rubber punching pad meant for exactly this - it works great and also extends the life of your stitching chisel points.

I use Tandy Leather's EcoWeld Adhesive. You could also use contact cement, but I prefer the EcoWeld because there are zero fumes and it works great!

I'm happy enough, but I would probably change up the design a little if I made it again and add a little needle case or pouch attached to the side instead. They don't get knocked off that often actually, but yeah definitely would rework it if I did it again.

@@EthanCarterDesigns idea 1. use a second piece of leather under the first, screw on the piece of leather(you can use multiple screws then) and stitch your main piece onto that. this way you have all the strength of the screws but see non of them and you can hide a magnetic strip in it to make the closing system work better. idea 2. this would be alot more work and i dont know what kinda stitch to use but you could drill diagonal holes in the wood and stitch the leather to that directly.
