Leif Labs Action Shot

Some friends of mine rode their bikes from Columbia to Salt Lake last September. I made a handlebar bag for the trip. I finally got around to procuring a picture:
The bag was in charge of holding the camera. You can see it open there on the right. Woo.

Sneak Peek: Juki Serger

Amazon just had a smokin' deal on the MO-654DE. I've been wanting a serger for a good long while and this seemed like the best time to buy one. 2 to 4 theads, differential feed, heavy to lightweight fabric. Aw yeah. Time to make some full-face fleece cycling hats...when I have time. It's house-repair season...sigh.

Innards.

Time to research serger thread...

Simple Bag

Real nice, simple shoulder bag. 16-inch flap (across). For the right-shouldered individual.

Kyle's Bag

Here's a bag I just made for my friend. 17-inches. Built around an LP.



Thanks for modeling, Bernie.

Leatherman Sheath

Just made this for my friend. I suppose it should be made out of leather, but I haven't started working with that yet.
This is about as small a case you can make using this kind of construction. It took me about three hours to turn this right-side out. Ha.
Belt loop.
Snap.
Thank you low October sun for the shadows.

Carry-on Bag

Popping up to New York for a bit next week and thought I'd make a real simple carry-on bag. It's based around Delta's max bag dimensions: 22x14x9". 1000d Cordura nylon. Unlined.

Should've made the handles a bit longer.
Simple straps.
One compression strap.

This is my first zippered backpack. Usually I'm not a big fan of this design because zippers are pretty fragile, but since the zipper doesn't go all the way around this bag it can totally fail and the bag will still function. And, as you can see, it opens plenty wide.

Man + Bag

I was going through some old photos the other day and came across these that I never put up.
24incher, oversized.
I made the bag a while ago. 10oz cotton canvas, 1000d nylon bottom, ACP 3D outside pockets and liner.

Yep, that's a big bag.
