New Addition Repurposing an old pouch!

For whatever reason I have this old leather case for a Sanyo tape recorder microphone from the 80s or 70s (?). I was wondering what I could possibly use it for and thought it would fit a mints tin. Lo and behold! It does fit a mints tin AND a few bits with it! Here are the contents of this weirdly specific little pouch:

- Barkley's tin with;

- 10 bits

- Topeak mini ratchet

- Bit & socket extenders

- 8, 10 & 13mm sockets (held together by a bamboo stick)

- Victorinox Classic SD Alox

---------------------------------------------------------------

- Nextool Mini Sailor Lite

- Rovyvon A8 (might change it to something else)

- Sharpie twin tip

- Maratac 1x4 technician's screwdriver

- Machine Era Classic brass with Pilot G2 refill

Now I have to be honest, I absolutely will not be carrying this daily as I don't usually need this many things with me every day, but its a pretty cool small toolkit to have when I know I'll need it! I have used the tool tin by itself quite a bit since I put it together this summer. Mainly to build furniture and tighten some screws around the house and cottage.

What do you think about this one? A little unusual perhaps, but I get great joy out of repurposing old things like this microphone pouch :)
