OK, O'Neille old buddy. Here's another shot of my garage. There's about 18 feet more workbench length behind the camera, and you can see my freestanding "leather bench" behind me.
I wore my X-marks kilt all day. Grocery shopping, a run through Target, shoe store for new kicks for MadBagpiper, dropping the kids off at band practice and youth group, out to dinner with my wife. (Temp right now is 14 degrees F, by the way!) New sporran works well. Magnetic clasps are great!

Congratulations on such excellent work. That sporran is one of the best DIY projects I've seen here at XMTS. The X Marks tartan kilt looks great as well.
Cheers

That sporran is KILLER! Thanks for the "tutorial". The rest of my raccoon is still hanging out in the barn and I now know what I'll do with it. I hope you don't mind a knock-off because I just gotta have one! I loaned my last DIY sporran to a friend who needed one "just until he got around to getting one" about five years ago. I still visit it every so often. Nice Work!

Very nice job!
Your inspiring me to finally finish my 84th RHEs raccoon 'purse'!
Though first I wish to sew up a badger fur trooper hat that I've had planned a spell!
