Re: Custom Bag
The lining leather which I wet moulded yesterday has dried overnight and is now waiting to be glued together.

As you can see the lining leather has added to the integrity of the gusset piece already. In normal circumstances I would not always glue the lining in place as there will be plenty of stitching to secure it. In this case I want the lining to be completely joined to the original piece as tis will prevent any future tearing or splitting of the outer leather.

Re: Custom Bag
Here are the two internal dividers with the repaired edges.

I have also glued all of the linings to the outer pieces of the case. All of the lining leather is to be left the natural colour it will only have a protective coat of wax.
I am still mixing dye to try and get a colour match that I am happy with

Re: Custom Bag
I have started to sew the handle together I like the idea if the green suede for the interior but I am having second thoughts about the green thread.
For the moment I have stopped while I consider the options.

Re: Custom Bag
Today I fitted the suede to the inside of some of the pieces the back panel needs the handle fitted before I can go any further. The piece of metal I have is a little wider that I would like at 20 mm my ideal would have been 15 mm I splashed out and bought stainless steel so cutting 5 mm off with a hacksaw is not an option either as it is very hard.
Todays other problem is I have fitted the lock lower than I had intended. I got it in my head that I wanted the centre of the lock in line with the centre of the buckles not thinking that the flap might not be long enough. Too late now. There is no spare leather so I cannot remake the front panel I have tried the back and front together and it looks ok so fingers crossed
