Workin’.

Modular. Versatile. (My end-of-the-workday-quick-creative-idea-to-execution).
Also, cool can. Good beer.





Cutting material for three Galileo passport cases. Two will be fully assembled, one will start the dyed-by-hand process and will be assemble on Thursday.
first look: The Galileo passport case
Sized up slightly to fit an International Driving Permit 🚗
🗳️ Polling the audience: have this as default size or as an optional size?

Grateful Log and some Wisdom for Saturday September 21, 2024
So in the majority of other things, we address circumstances not in accordance with the right assumptions, but mostly by following wretched habit. Since all that I’ve said is the case, the person in training must seek to rise above, so as to stop seeking out pleasure and steering away from pain; to stop clinging to living and abhorring death; and in the case of property and money, to stop valuing receiving over giving. - Musonius Rufus

Second prototype, perfected the sizing. This product is good to go. Name TBD, but it is a passport case.




Really liking how this passport case turned out. Will be part of the Strathmere Leather line. Also really liking suede for the interior pockets. Went with the same approach on the soon-to-be-announced Franklin bag.

Prototype.



A visitor.

Dyed by hand.

State of my bag lately. Water bottle in the modular compartment off to the side, 13” MacBook Air, 11” iPad, magazine for wishful moments to read, Jefferson full of notes and unfinished thoughts. Plus pockets on both sides of the bag holding useful day-to-day things.

Mornings.

Back to work! Have successfully not been down here since Saturday morning, which provides a fresh mindset in-between bench sessions and now as I get back to it.
