Sweet leather metal detecting pouch

[johnny the digger]

Just stitched me up one of these leather metal detecting pouches. Took a long time to design, trace, cut, dye, and stitch together. But I feel as though it was worth it. Hopefully it will give me many years of service. Might put a few up on ebay and see how that goes.

Just happen to click on the poat. Very nice pouch indeed... Sale them here, Ebay will charge you listings, multiple pictures and final value fee, not to mention pay-pal will also dip into your profits with their transfer fees.

Here's mine. Been using is for over 22 years now. I prefer a zipper pocket for the good stuff and a wider slot than you have for the digger and probe.

Very sturdy looking pouch. You may want to add a pinpointer loop on the front?

 

[johnny the digger]

The cost of these would probably be above a hundred dollars, considering the materials involved (I think the leather is 7 or 8 oz.) and time spent on each one. I made another one yesterday and it took over eight hours to complete. Of course tooling would add to it as well. I'm getting pretty good at tooling leather so I'd be interested in anything anyone could throw at me. Definitely going to add a pin pointer loop to them. If anyone is still interested, let me know and we can work something out. Custom work is always welcome.

I bought mine called levis and it comes with 4 pockets. No need for anything to be flopping around on your side. lol

Nice, as long as it works for you. Some people like a little more.

You're braver than me if you put slaw, rusty nails, and broken glass in your Levi's!
