a zipped purse
here is a zipped purse. I wanted to make something which zipped around a corner. A friend has a 3d printer, and made a former for the zip to help with aligning and glueing, i also made one in greyboard stuck together, but the 3d printed one was better. This is made from veg tan goatskin for both the outer and inner, again thinned to 0.5mm, 0.8mm and 1.2mm. I also stuck a layer of dacron to the outer for a bit of extra strength. Riri m4 zip and stitched at 9spi

yes, it was probably slightly under 0.5 but they were glued together for the gusset. not sure how long it took him, but the 3d printed form is much better than the grey board one i made first. thanks to your courses, there are lots of elements i have picked up, like using ripstop nylon in the card holders to make it thinner. thank you
