Simon...can you do a vlog for a diy mat. I have material and would like to have a go at making one - thanks

Hi Simon. I've been an upholsterer for 52 years and still managed to learn somthing from your video. Well done and have a great Christmas. Looking forward to seeing more of your great videos in 2024.

Nice one Robin, every days a school day as they say. Cheers for visiting and Merry Christmas 👍🏼

I had no idea it was that simple. I have bought several of those types of box bags (usually sold as men's shaving or travel toiletry bags) for keeping all sorts of various items. They are so handy but now I am sure I can easily make ones in the sizes I want. Great video.

Great work mate, as a dab hand at making things on a sewing machine in my job in the Navy as a survival specialist it’s always great to see other peoples skills. Nice work mate💪🏻👍

Now then, I’ve just spent the last 8 weeks, every Thursday evening with a group of ladies in Mansfield learning to sow because I wanted to make stuff like this. So far I’ve replaced a cushion zip and made my daughter a skirt but this box pouch and tent customising was what I went to learn my way around a sewing machine for. This project is perfect for next year although I’ve just bought a 2nd hand husqavarna to play with. Cheers Simon this is precisely what I was after.

Cheers Simon, thanks for sharing your skill and knowledge. Love the way you’re old school enough to mix cms and inches in your measurements 😂, I’m just the same! And whatever you’re charging for the bags, it’s not enough…… Been a subscriber for a couple of years now, started with your stick making video (with the deer head painting) so keep them coming and good luck with the camera trap efforts. Have a great Christmas. Terry

Thanks for sharing Simon. I think I’ve just found myself a new hobby. Fantastic video, and the way you broke it down makes it look a lot less intimidating to try out. Do you have any suggestions for reputable sites or suppliers from where to order the materials?
