Leather Brush Pouches

[stormcrowuk]

Last few days I've been playing with some designs for a leather brush pouch. I've done these two, one with a wrap around strap and the other with magnetic fasteners. The wrap around strap has the benefit of being able to hold larger brushes the other you are restricted by the position of the magnetic fasteners as to how big you can go.

I'd be interested in what people think regarding the pros and cons of the different designs?

Nice job, is the internal brush strap adjustable?

yes both of them are adjustable, probably should have done some photos without a brush.

I can see it now, it's the long strap on the black and the short strap showing on the brown one.
Just my opinion, I think the brown style looks neater.

Beautiful craftsmanship but may I ask.

Focus on the last photo. Is there a possibility of the bottom fasteners coming into contact with a brush or would the leather strap that holds the brush in place cover that issue when closed?

It is possibly the angle of the photo but it looks like the rivets could touch and possibly scratch the handle when closed.

I actually noticed that after I posted Wayne and I've decided if I do any more of these I'll line up the fastener with the strap so it only comes into contact with the strap.

Good call!
If you rectified that I am sure they would fly out of the door.
I for one would be very interested.

Keep up the good work mate.

I have one of Dale's travel pouches for a DE razor and blades, excellent workmanship and these look superb as well?

I agree the bottom one looks neater but I'd be quite happy with either

I like the wrap around strap; magnetic ferrous iron and moisture may have problems.

Both are nice. Simply beautiful
