I have about 20-30 IKEA bags because of the missus - the real large bags

She fucking hoards them

They're in a cupboard super high up in the house, I can get them down with our stool

It's actually just a normal height for a cupboard

Just dye a regular chest rig blue

^

Do you want me to show you

It's really high up

Anyways, it's bags within bags within bags, that crawlspace is probably 3-4 feet deep

I'm doing this now

Swamp has corrupted me

I will combine my leatherworking and canvas working abilities to make the ultimate IKEA rig

Oh I should probably mention I got my first real commission this week

FAL Magazine pouches

Leather?

Yep

Gonna do a basketweave pattern on the flap but, otherwise leave the rest clean besides some bordering due to my client wanting clean leather.

I did a belt today, finishing it up tomorrow

What’s it gonna look like?

My belt or the cases?

Cases

Well, the mag pouches

I can show you the pattern I am working with

So imagine this for a FAL Magazine.

This is what basketweave is.

It's going on the front pouch flap, nowhere else though.

@Punished Ggnome can you do other setups?

Yeah, I just need measurements.

I've been working on some for my Krag (cartridge holder like in the picture.)

Basically, the hardest step is making a wooden form that is the dimensions of the magazine

Then the veg tan is formed around it via sewing and wet molding

Also doing a leather holster for my stepfather's revolver too so there's that

Get a block of abs

If I had my 3d printer I would just print em

But, my move got rid of that :c

So I found a bright red tactical beanie.

I've stole some IKEA bags from the missus
