Just finished this up over the weekend. It's either a small travel bag or a large shave kit It's all hand tooled and hand-sewn. ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/12/full-1771-268561-20201207_130741.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/12/full-1771-268562-20201207_130638.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2020/12/full-1771-268563-20201207_131257.jpg)

Looks like it should hold something valuable so don't put anything valuable in it.

Very cool work!  Remember Tandy's stores? When I was a little tike my brother was at Baylor. They usually lost football games back then. When I "grew up", I was gonna go to Baylor, quarterback for them (and make them always win), and major in Leather Craft.

Mine looks like a college football. Did the basketball have any writing on it or was it a blank canvas?

Thanks aerangis
I got the dimensions and line art from a saddle maker. I cut, tooled and hand stitched everything. It's relaxing and keeps my mind off other things

I found an old styptic pen for shave cuts. I don't remember the last time I cut myself while shaving.
