RE:LOVE - Repurposed — Iron Heart, Reimagined

@worn2fade @motojobobo thank you boys
Here’s another mockup …
Another option, instead of string…. a good art snap or two
One last one… a flannel lining for extra strength would be a great addition and fits the over-engineered principal of IronHeart.
@Lynne please let me know if you need a
to test it out 
, money in my hand

@labrat I do love a tool roll, but we rarely have enough Relove fabric in that’s big enough to make them.
What would be the minimum dimensions that would work for you?
And what would you pay for one?If a smaller size works, then this may be possible.
They can also be used to store/carry watches -
I’ve got some small pieces of soft leather for lining.I’ve also looked at patchworking to make larger pieces but they would need lining (I don’t get much shirt fabric) and the seams are bulky.
Let’s drill this down.
Let’s get to a size that works for all and what you’d put in it - and I’ll make a sample! -
@Lynne I completely understand, and thank you for even considering this! I'll message you with details
️Personally, I'd have two uses for this, a bike tool roll and as a barber tool roll to store my shaving tools.

Around 25x45cm? A few thoughts… I'd love to see two wider/deeper pockets for larger items (around 9cm), with the rest varying between 3–5cm. Curious what others think! Just my two cents—ultimately, it'd be great to settle on something that works for everyone and covers a range of uses

This is what Haraki made in 2019.
Aetas said in Hand and Power Tools:
From the Iron Heart Boss Talk.
Tool set in an IH made roll-up case. Stamped serial number 1/21 to 21/21 and with flannel inside. -
@Lynne , my only concern with the shorter flap is that items could get banged up when they’re rolled and stacked on top of each other.
-
The small flap version would work fine for tools where rubbing wear is irrelevant.

Here is the tool roll which came with my bike.
The rulers are both cms.
The journey is the objective.

@Lynne I have a watch roll that (imo) has just about the perfect dimensions. Its made from leather and suede lined so quite think material. Only mentioning it in case it matters for the pattern.
its roughly 28cm wide at the bottom by 28cm tall
At ~10cm up from the bottom, it begins to taper slightly to ~23cm at the top
It has space for four watches and one spring bar tool. the watch pockets are 6cm, with the covering crating the pocket being more like 9cm. Only remembered to measure after taking pics, but the pocket is 8.5cm deep.
The oversized top material is accomodated by this flap construction
The spring bar tool pocket is 3cm wide, covered by 3.5cm material.
i would definitely be interested in an RE:LOVE'd version of something like this. If you need any more measurements let me know

@motojobobo a slightly smaller size, interesting. I thought you’d all have big tools and would need something bigger
I can do something with this -
Lynne a tool roll for cars would certainly require larger tools (and rolls). They are as small and light as possible on bikes.
I think that a denim as thin as 14 oz would perfectly suffice for a bike tool roll.
Ermmmm…although my dream tool roll would be made of brown duck!!!
that would save some material to just have a smaller flap cover
