Not everyone's cup of tea, I think, bar bags...
Anyway I've wanted one for a little while, but I think it's obscene spending a minimum of 50 of my hard earned quids on a small pouch of cordura and a zipper...
So, I embarked on a lockdown mini-project. A few days later, £5 for a bit of cordura fabric, £3 for a zipper, some old bits of webbing, lots of mis-stitches, more pin-pricks in the fingers than I can count, and a new-found healthy respect for those masters of the dark-arts of sewing machine use, and we have a bar bag!
Pretty chuffed with it all told... Some bits ent pretty, the stitching is not straight, even remotely, but pretty happy.
MYOG is the way forward I reckon!
