I really enjoy your tutorials. Also all the sewing machines you have. Looking forward to your next project. Have a good week

cool bag and I loved your video. No annoying music or talking just practical demo :) I've been sewing for a living for 45 yrs and I learnt several new ways of doing things.

Thanks. New ways of doing things huh? That is what happens when a carpenter gets a sewing machine. Ha Ha 😋 But seriously I appreciate your comments.

Thanks for this video. Just finished making one, though I only used ~10 oz cotton duck and a non-industrial machine (Pfaff 130). Still turned out great, the rope in the hem makes a big difference.

That is great, I love hearing that! I have made bags with 10 oz canvas too, it works great for that and lasts too. My backdrop is made from 10 oz canvas, its good. Glad you like the rope, it definitely steps it up a notch. Thanks

I'm glad you showed how to work those rivets!! Great bag!!

This is mesmerizing to watch. I want to sew like you do!! Until I do, I at least can use some of your techniques in my own work. Wow!!

I absolutely love how you just chuck your cut pieces right next to your machine, like you're saying there all done no sweat peanuts 😂. I'm seriously thinking about investing in a Juki myself.

AMAZING. What skills. I love that there are still folks that have these amazing craftsmanship. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you, you are too kind.

You have great instructions, i slowed it down and was able to get the instructions and sewed together 5 of those canvas tool bags, they are easy once you do the first one but you need a industrial sewing machine to sew it together, thanks for the nice video and it was a great project.

I just finished this bag. I used 2 or so yards of 36” wide duck with some left over. I added inside pockets using the method in the video with the larger bag with leather handles. It went together fairly easy. I did make one modification to both end panel pockets(at least from what I saw in the video) by moving the pockets panel up higher with just enough of the bottom seam allowance to be sewn under the end sacrifice panel . I did slightly off set the tops of the end pockets with side pockets. You end up with quite a few layers to go through during the final assembly! Regarding the cut list provided: I would cut the inside straps an extra 6 inches longer or so to be sure the doubled up section of the handles can be sewn to the bag. I ended up having shorten the outside handles a bit from the ends to get them to attach properly. It carries well enough with the handles a few inches shorter. Awesome project. Great videos.

The Juki 1508...the favorite in my arsenal of machines...I have 2 1508s one for a back-up....nice bag...

Hi Alexander, Great video thanks for posting it. I made a couple of the tool bags in military grade heavy duty canvas manufactured here in Australia. The tool bags turned out 10 inches wide by 16 inches long. The height was 12 inches reducing to 10.5 after I added the bolt rope at the top. I shortened the outside strap by 3 inches to allow for the bolt rope. Using a 5/8 inch seam allowance the tops of the pockets on the end lined up with the the pocket tops on the side. The end pockets in the video banner image are lower than the side pockets, I guess this was a prototype version of the bag. I was pretty much forced to sew the bottom corners using a triple feed 2 inch cylinder arm machine to achieve good tight seams on the bottom corners of the bag. The rest of the bag was done easily on a flatbed triple feed machine, like your Juki 1508. Not sure how one would go making this bag on a plain drop feed machine with thick canvas. I agree that everyone should have a Juki 1508 triple feed. Thanks Again Myles

That is a very informative comment. I gave it a thumbs up. Your project sounds great, you have made a great tool bag and who knows, you may have it for the rest of your life. Those bottom corners are definitely tricky. Again, I really appreciate you taking the time. Oh and prototype, yes, most of the things I make are. \HaHa/

really nice craftsmanship! I started doing leather work this year, but it is very expensive. Looking into canvas with leather like a Klein bag. You just broadened my horizon with this. Awesome work!

Good gosh, Alex, your machine, being that it's an industrial piece of machinery is phenomenal. For it to be able to get over the bulky areas as it does is awesome! I have a Husqvarna Viking and, although I've tried getting over some bulk areas when I sew, if I don't go slow, which I would normally do, sometimes the motor can't even handle it and it causes my needle to break. Nevertheless, this was a great showing of how you put this bag together and I loved especially the pockets technique. I'm going to try my hand at incorporating that particular feature into a tote bag made with 100% cotton. Thank you so much for sharing.

Hello Alexander, nice bag and video, thank you. I have a question. Do you think a Brother 1034D serger can do the job? They say is heavy duty but I don't know. I would get a Juki but it's 4 times more expensive... Thanks and all the best!

Beautifully made! I'm just about to upgrade to a bigger machine, a Juki 1510N-7. Also looking to get an overlock machine to simplify/speed up hidden seams. Any recommendations on particular options/capabilities to look out for with an overlock machine? I'm usually sewing cordura, sometimes with padding or thin foam.

Damn it! Just as I was engrossed in this video, my wife came through the door unexpectedly. I had to insist that I had been trying to find a video of naked women, and that I had not actually searched for a sewing video. She thought it was hilarious. (Hope the joke doesn't offend anyone - that's what I really said to her). Thanks for a great video. I have recently been searching local tool shops for strong canvas tool bags. Have only found innovative but cheaply made alternatives so far. But if I leaned how to fix my wife's sewing machine...

It's such a good design. The dimensions are perfectly practical for a tool bag. Bigger than a lineman's bag, but smaller than a regular tool bag (or so it seems)... I keep watching this video. Where is your shop located in US? M

Since I only have a household machine what fabric would you recommend. Also what is a sacrificing panel? I have just found your vidios and have yet another reason to shirk working lol 😊 oh well such is life eh!

@AlexanderDyer

6 жыл бұрын

You can make bags out of any fabric you like. Thinner fabrics won't be as stiff or have the constitution that heavy canvas does. The sacrifice panel is on the bottom to take the wear that setting and sliding the bag around will inevitably occur.

Using a durable womens purse is much easier. Only thing I would suggest is spray painting the whole thing, and could put your name on it if your worried about tools coming up missing

That's wonderful work you done
