Hi all,

I have been looking on the web but are not able to find what im looking for.

I bought at bag of different hardware some years ago and have 2 og these metal frames, but i cont find out how to use them. I guess im going to wrap them in leather and then make some kind of bag and sew them on, but i need some inspiration to get started and some inspiration for how to close the bag.

That’s no problem. But they would also like a leather protective case in which the standard and case can be taken around to various events. In my mind, I am thinking…
