    Outstanding work, and a very unique design. The spent cases look great too. Is there anything filling them in so they can't get deformed or out of shape?
    I'm thinking you could fill them with a hard epoxy or something.

    I am happy that you are pleased with your sporran. It was a test of my ingenuity and skill to design something modern yet maintain some semblance of tradition. The sporran looks excellent with that kilt. A question. I never really tried it on myself past holding it up by the d rings on the back. Does the sporran feel too top heavy? It looks in the picture as if it is hanging a bit further away from the kilt at the top. I didnt forsee that as an issue with the sporran was fully loaded. If it is a problem, let me know and I can do some quick mods to fix that.

    Is enough space in it for all your things. I went with the soft leather on the front and back to allow for maximum capacity in a non-drawstring sporran.

    Did you mess with the sporran strap I made you at all? You had not asked me to make you one but I had a bit of leather left and whipped it up at the last minute. I was not sure of your waist size so I estimated. It is kind of light for a sporran strap so I was wondering how it road tested.

    Don't know if you noticed, but under the back pocket I stitched in a piece of canvans that I signed. dated, and numbered.

    Thanks for being my guniea pig Rogerson. Please let me know know if there is anything I can do to improve on the design or issues that arise with this sporran that I can fix for you.

    BB,
    You have all the ingredients of customer satisfaction, learning from customer's opinions, and a great hand with the leather. I wish you good fortune in your indevers. After your service, you have something to look forward to.
