Saddleback Leather (ID) Wallet anyone?

[MadPlumbarian]

I dug threw my junk box and took a pic to give you an idea of what I was talking about, you could always just slide it into the one side to leave the other open too.. JR

Yes, it's nice! If I get some smaller/cheaper/destruction-worthy notepad, I'll do it . Should check if I don't have one or two lying around, but I think I don't..

Or the other type of paperclip or what's that thing called.. it holds the paper even more securely and doesn't look that ugly...

I alway keep one of those clipped to the bill of my hat. You would be surprised what they come in handy for.

You know you could always just tuck the one side into the pocket, then when out of paper flip it to use the other side? JR

Yeah, that's an idea, too

If I had anymore room in my pockets I might buy one of those wallets but currently I'm carrying way too much stuff...

My "wallet" is a pfrsantos© Vintage #1. Cost me about €0.10 and took 10 minutes to make. Have it for some 3 years now.

Cut 2mm brown leather in a rectangle big enough to cover your currency and cut two small grooves in the middle of the larger sides. I made mine the size of this:

 

Then get a paper clip, straighten it out, make a small curved tip so the bills/papers can slide under it more easily, bend it so as to make the leather fit snuggly and Robert is your parent's brother.

I have some credit/ID/cards but I made this just for bills, so I can carry it in my trouser pocket and not worry about bending it. It just serves to protect my bills and keep them toghether.

Now make more of these and start selling them for $15 per piece

I thought of that... I'm thinking about a design that could carry credit cards, too. That'll go for €20.

Lol

And with the good advertising, you may find quite a lot of customers. I can already think of some USPs:

- stitchless design (seems to be trendy now)
- slim carry
- handmade

Think of a proper logo to make it appealing....

After about 15-6 months, a few "washes" and lots of carrying... The Credit Card wallet in tobacco. It's not so reddish as it looks in the picture.
