Making custom tool cases for KC TOOL

I was stoked for the opportunity to work with KC Tool to develop and make these tool rolls for a primo homeowner tool kit. Everything they sell is made in Germany, so you know the tools are all about as good as it gets. While editing I decided it'd be nice if I just shut up for a while and not have any music either, a little #ASMR vibe! You can buy this limited release tool kit at www.kctool.co...

    Hello, I really like your channel where you show how you make bags and work on your boat. Does this sling have a key clip in it? BTW, you made me a custom, large drop liner backpack in 2015, and I travelled to Ethiopia with it. Still have the backpack, but don't use it every day as it is large, but I love it! It's good for travelling or hiking. I also liked how you sent the backpack with custom beer coasters that said Truce Designs instead of including stickers like many other companies do. (I've no use for stickers, but coasters are always useful. It's also extra fun when they are from an indie maker like yourself.

    Owner, Company, and it’s product are all a 10+! I own this bag and it’s my last backpack I will ever own. I bought it to take on sailboat deliveries and to use for work when I run snorkeling day charters in the USVI. It is invaluable and because it’s from Truce it can be repaired and or upgraded as time passes. It’s the perfect size in medium. Now I got in to adventuring motorcycling and I am taking it on a four day BDR off road group ride. If you are considering one of these, I can 100% recommend Truce and Luke. I have never met Luke, but I have spoken with him on the phone and he is the real deal. His product quality is over and above anything I have seen in the backpack world. Any product that has the Truce name on it is hand made and no doubt has to meet his very high standards. Capt. Mike Conforti

    Nice tour; Lowell North would be proud. The evolution of fabric, yarn and shape is astonishing; I am old enough to remember sailing with canvas genoas, then dacron, to spectra, to kevlar, to cuben fiber right out of America 3, then carbon strands, but the game changer was North's 3Di technology, which we just saw here. Prior, sails were laid out and cut on flat loft floor vs a perfectly shaped mold.

Great question - it would be cheaper and faster to build a new pack without spending all the time on taking things apart but I do like being able to salvage and reuse all the parts that still have plenty of life in them. And especially when customers are attached to their bags, I'm happy to do a full refresh like this!

  • @pironiero
    @pironiero 5 місяців тому

    This is counterintuitive, you get a racer which is built to be lightweight and one of the first thing you do to it is teating off glaased in tanks and plan to replace them with steel ones, those are really heavy, at least consider building them in glass\carbon ot something, otherwise going in that direction you either will lose most of speed characteristics or wont be able to carry most of stuff you want. Personally-id jusr pop those tanks open, sanded them, applied new epoxy and then seal back, because it all was probably calculated at the design stage, epoxy is safe, it is not hygroscopic like other resins.

    • @TruceBags
      @TruceBags 5 місяців тому

      yep we're making changes that will make it a bit slower / cruisier, it'll be a bit slower in the end but we want to live on it - kind of a smaller version of what the Duracell Project is doing, but in our case it was built as a racer/cruiser, not purely for racing. We want more space for water so a small tank up front to balance out the weight we add to the back might be the way to go. Definitely trying to keep weight down regardless, but still want it to be comfortable
