Fountain pen case with Tile tracker

my63leather

I have had an idea for some time to add a tracking device to a pen case so when the chance came to make it I did. This is a three pen case with a pocket for a tracking device. These are the kydex pen slots that give the case its strength Wrapping the Kydex pen slots in suede. The outer cover was next and needed a little more work as well as forming the outer cover I also had to form the pocket for the Tile tracking device. Keeping the top straight is the difficult part of this  task … Continue reading Fountain pen case with Tile tracker

Twin cigar style pen case

my63leather

This is my most complicated case that I currently make it has lots of steps and takes many hours to get it right. Starting as all of my protective cases do with flat sheet Kydex which I formed around a wooden dowel. The seams are welded and smoothed the closed end is rounded over. When the Kydex had cooled I started wrapping them in suede. After both tubes were wrapped I took two pieces of 0.5mm leather and stitched up the centre. This piece fixes the two tubes together and allows the lid to be a friction fit without damaging … Continue reading Twin cigar style pen case

Fit for a King

my63leather

I have been asked to make a pair of cases for the A.S.C. Three Kings set of pens. One single and one for all three. Burgundy leather with dark purple suede. Starting with a flat sheet of Kydex I heated it and formed it over a wooden mould to give me the individual pen slots for each pen. All I needed now was three more 🙂 Once the Kydex had cooled retaining the new shape I wrapped them in suede. First the single and then the thrapple. Having glued the suede in place I left it to dry and started … Continue reading Fit for a King

Triple cigar style case.

my63leather

I have been asked before to make a three pen version of my cigar style case. I could not think of a way to stabalise the three tubes so I have always declined to make one. I don’t like turning down orders or admitting defeat so this time I said yes with the proviso if it did not work we would look at other options. Here we go I started with the flat sheet kydex which I cut into strips heated and formed it around a suitable sized dowel. The next step was to weld the sides of the kydex  … Continue reading Triple cigar style case.

Slimline triple Emperor

my63leather

I was asked by someone who has a full size Emperor case if I could make a slimline version but still have the brogue effect. I do like a challenge so this post will detail how I created this case. I formed three Kydex pen slots as I was aiming to make the case as slim as possible I reduced the height of the slot to match the diameter of the cap without the clip and the width to the diameter including the clip. Once I was happy with the diameter I wrapped the pen slots in suede. Making sure … Continue reading Slimline triple Emperor

Electric blue triple Emperor

my63leather

One of my Instagram followers asked me to make a triple pen case for Emperor sized pens. I started with flat sheet materials Kydex suede and leather here is the kydex sheet marked out ready. Using my hot air gun and a wooden form I moulded the kydex into three arch shapes. After trimming the kydex to size I started wrapping the arches in electric blue suede. Once the inner pen slots were finished I turned my attention to the outer cover. I soaked a piece of veg tanned leather in water and wet moulded it around another wooden form … Continue reading Electric blue triple Emperor

Danitrio triple pen case

my63leather

My latest commission is to make a three pen case to carry Danitrio Genkai fountain pens. Starting with flat sheet Kydex I made a new wooden form to produce the Kydex for the pen slots. After forming the Kydex I needed a new form for the leather outer I found a length of oak from the last large pen box I made. Which was exactly the right dimensions I only needed to round over the corners and sand it a little. This is the perfect size. Regular readers will know that wet veg tanned leather will form around a mould … Continue reading Danitrio triple pen case

Triple Emperor brogue style

my63leather

This commission is for a triple emperor fountain pen case with a brogue pattern I have made such a case previously so I decided to make a new brogue design. I started with a piece of grey board drawing out a pattern inspired by a different pair of shoes. I used my circle tool to form the shape with guide lines. The circle tool has marks on it to help line it up. When I was happy with the design I transferred the layout lines to the mould to allow me to position the template accurately in later stages. I … Continue reading Triple Emperor brogue style

I made this form with a … Continue reading Long Nakaya case
