Anakin Style Ep3 Pouches - Interest Thread

[Saberbelt]

****Update 10/4**** - Ok - leather is here and I am going to start work on these pouches in the next 2 days. I am now putting a cut off on this order for anyone that might be on the fence - if I do not hear from you by Wednesday Night at say 10pm then you won't be able to get in on this order.

If you are thinking about this then I strongly encourage you to speak up now so you can save some money and get your pouches before Halloween. If you need a belt to go with pouches - please say so now - I am now at a 2 week backlog and there appears to be no end in sight - so Halloween orders need to be placed soon.

**********************************************

The List:

• 1 - Ryan C (ASAP)
• 2 - Schmev (RPF)
• 3 - Jeff H (emailed me directly)
• 4 -
• 5 -

ok - I have got some emails from customers wanting these pouches - and after doing a belt for a friend for DC where she wanted 1 tall and 1 short pouch - I remade the small pouch pattern and can do a run if there is interest.

Here are some pics:







Ok - I can do them as either the button stud closure or the sewn velcro closure. Basically I would need 5 interetsed people to make this happen. I can do them as single pouches for $30 each, $55 for 2, or $65 for 3. If you are paying attention - that is the discounted price I charge for pouches when ordered with belts. Shipping would be the same as on my site here

I know there is one interested party on ASAP - so I am going to contact him and see if he is still interested.

I will keep the list running here once I get commitments.

Thanks

Dave

Could they be done in vinyl? If so, I'm probably able to buy.

(P.S.: The top pic doesn't seem like leather. Is it?)

[Saberbelt]

I don't play with Vinyl at all - so no on that. All the pouches you see in the first post are real Leather. Nice thing about leather is that it can be dyed to any color you want - vinyl tends to be limited to what you can find in fabric stores.

Can I ask why you wanted vinyl? Would it be to match something you currently have.

LOL!
That was funny. It may be true but it was still funny.

[Saberbelt]

dang veggies Lust kidding

You think I would have caught that reason since I just went through it with a member of our costume group - I made a belt for him out of a Police Duty Belt (Ballistic Nylon) so I know there are alternatives.

Don't worry, you sounds very intelligent talking to yourself. Crazy, but intelligent...........

[Xanus Paragon]

shhhhh... let the man work. ;D

(oh yeah, HI! I'm the Jeff H that ordered some of the pouches). I thougth I'd better register since I'll probably be hanging around getting some more tips on costuming.

I am a bit on the crazy side

Quick update - I sent this in an email but wanted to put it here too - I appologize that I missed my ship deadline of Friday or today (dang holiday) - but I am going to hit the new deadline of Wednesday - these are almost done and I will have pics tomorrow night after I get home from work.

Be sure to check back in to the loony bin to see the finished pieces - straight jackets optional
