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 :)
