You should sell the pattern for the bag like Adam does I’ve bought all his patterns and made a couple bags for myself with my own materials it’s an awesome option
Yeah, especially with the sustainable factor : I have some material laying around, let's make it with it and maybe add / remove feature that are not needed for me. Appropriate the design and make our own product out of it while still supporting the initial idea somehow.
Putting an Adam savage coop in a 10min video like it's nothing 😂 visiting his Workshop is a lifetime goal for many people... Laura, you made it. Keep on living your Dreams!
If she wants to sell it in Germany, over 100 would be too much. We like to spend money on usefull things, but 100+ is too much. A bag this size should be approx between 60 and 80. It is a lovely pouch but it is not the invention of the wheel. I agree with the commenter who wrote that selling the patterns would be a good option for her to make money of this bag.
Me too. Worst thing is is that I know exactly what that type of screwdriver is called, but I brainfarted and went googling for "foreign screwdriver", thinking it was some high quality brand of tools.
Curious if you're all non-U.S.? Because in the U.S. that tool is super common and so I knew exactly what he was saying (I have one of those 4-in-1's in each of my cars, my kitchen, my work... :)
@@VanGoWanderlust yes, non-US. Those tools are reasonably common over here, although I can't recall ever hearing or seeing an official name. I've always just called them four-way screwdrivers. I think it was Adam's initial pronunciation that threw me off, although maybe I just wasn't paying attention at the time.
Love the dedicated compartment for dirty treasures (filthy lucre?). My solution for years has been an inside out nitrile glove (which I always carry): put the glove on, grab the object, pull the glove off and whatever's dirty (or small, it's great for screws, nuts, buttons, whatever) is in the inside out glove.
It doesn't look like it actually ratchets. It appears to be just a strap with an adjustable buckle. If it had an actual ratcheting mechanism that'd be cool AF
@@m97120 Correct. I was listening to the audio and went back to see the product - I'm glad I wasn't trying to source these over the phone. A similar object is called a "cam strap" at hard goods stores.
Lovely idea Laura! Maybe add a removable liner to the magical parts pocket? That way, greasy parts won't make the pocket permanently greasy and make all your future finds greasy too! You could use button snaps, so the liner can be popped off and go into the washing machine. You could then snap in a second clean pocket liner and go out hunting again!
That detachable liner could be actually a larger bag, either tote or even backbag folded in half and made from some relatively thin but strong material like rip-stop nylon. If Laura manages to find something bigger or more items, she'd already got alternative carry option with her and she didn't had to discard something usable just because it don't fit in the fanny pack.
@@TK8866275 well....if the liner was a bag, then maybe it would benefit from a nylon chord drawstring and a spring-loaded toggle to cinch it closed too!
@@TK8866275Home Depot sells a (roughly 18"x18“) nylon shopping tote that folds to fit a blue jeans hip pocket. The color and the branding are off-putting but the implementation is on point.
Congratulations!! Wonderful to hear you include the usability for your oldest child. So many creatives would benefit from your emotional support tool roll (ESTR).
Reunited! Adam is how I found your channel Laura and now you’re just a car trip north to visit his shop, just awesome. I particularly like the size of the prototype bag, a size I wouldn’t mind carrying. Love to Smudo ❤
Sitting eating my lunch qt the cluttered dining table watcging newest laura video and learn the super useful screw driver sitting in front of me that i havent put away not only has a name but also has two additional ways of using it i never noticed.
As you know, Laura, with daily use, you will find ways to tweak and perfect the design. Iterate that prototype first so you aren’t forcing the iteration upon your most loyal fans. Certainly don’t OVERthink it… but certainly don’t UNDERthink it and rush things to market. Calling it an emotional support tool roll is awesome. With that awesomeness comes a huge responsibility to follow through on a promise. It’s no longer just a simple bag when it takes on that level of gravity! Have you already found the ideal supplier (bulk discount) for things like that ratchet strap closure? I have a Timbuk2 bag that is still going strong after nearly 20 years. As I’m sure you know, that thing is the gold standard because it was iterated by bike messengers for bike messengers. I want to know more about the decisions you make over materials and reinforced stitches and such. I love your commitment to your design aesthetic. I want to see more of the proof that only iteration can provide. Thank you as always for your effort to create wonderful content. Don’t let too much of your Köln coolness succumb to the California madness. Please stay YOU! All the best, -C
Great video! Love the brainstorming with Adam, and the fellow at Mafia bags absolutely nailed it! I LOVE this artistic path you have taken on your journey. Thank you for sharing your passions with us❤🇨🇦
I have been so impressed by the cottage industry sewers in the US. Bike bags, hammocks, tarps, quilts, cycle clothing, every day bags and slings. So many high quality options available. Laura looks extremely pleased with her new grab n’ go. 😊
Emotional Support Toolroll!!!!! I have “emergency art supplies” in several media (carving, watercolor, balance stones…) all of which give me confidence to face the world. You are wonderful and your creativity is inspiring.
I may not be a maker, but I do love to sketch and paint on the go, and this bag design would be PERFECT! Slots to keep all my brushes and pens, a notebook slot, and a large pocket for paint trays and pallets! Awesome, innovative design!!
I have my Grandpa's key chain screwdriver but mine is stamped "PROTO" Those were giveaways back in the day lots of companies gave them out as freebies but you don't seem them much anymore but I was sure to hang onto the old Codger's handy little screwdriver when I inherited all his stuff decades ago. A prized possession!
I had a small ratcheting screwdriver years ago with different "heads" for different screws. It was palm sized (for a female hand.) And I LOVED IT ! Was SO bummed when I lost it as it fit into tiny spaces, and with the ratchet mechanism, you could tighten or loose screws you couldn't reach with a "regular" screw driver !
@m.maclellan7147 look up "palm held screwdriver" and "ball grip screwdriver" and you might likely find something similar. My favorite one came from home depot in the stocking stuffer section like 10 years ago. And there is a one listed now called "tiny turner" that has the spare bits integrated into the handle.
I think I saw one of your Tape Mates on the latest episode of Emma Builds Birbie. She’s building a houseboat and her friend Gordo had one on his belt. Side note, people watching this would love her channel. 😉 I keep thinking that a collaboration between Emma, Laura, and Simone would be fun.
I live in Japan. I carry a flashlight in my daily briefcase, in addition to a mini Leatherman. I transfer them to my rucksack when I travel. I haven't needed them yet, but the day will come.
Adam's 4-in-1 screwdriver is nice, but at least here in Canada, the Pic-Quik screwdriver has 7 bits and 2 nut drivers in about the same size, very durable, not too expensive. You might be able to order one in. Of course, two of the bits are Robertson/square drive, which is everywhere in Canada but not as common in America, but you could just swap in any type of bit since it uses standard 1/4" hex drive.
I have LITERALLY (hate that word normally, but for once it's true...) just come here from watching Adam's video about his "gift" from a fan... I love the synchronicity! - Love you both too - go well wonderful people!! 🤣🤗
Laura, your content never fails to bring a smile, but this video in particular lit up my entire brain in such a special way. 😋 A video with you, EDC, custom bags, and Adam Savage was such a treat! Hope all goes well talking with manufacturers, because I'm definitely interested in this bag! If manufacturing doesn't happen, do you think you would release the patterns so that we could make our own? I'd love to source some interesting fabric if so 😎
This video covered so many of the things I'm interested in, I'm a: bag nerd, EDC nerd, recycling and repurposing nerd... It really was awesome, I enjoyed a lot ❤
The perfect bag is like finding a sparkly rainbow unicorn with wings! When you design one or find the right one, the heavens open up and all you hear is “aaaahhh”
I made an “emotional support” stationary roll. Can’t live without stationary items… made it from wet felted rescued wool and old black denim jeans and a pair of jacket cuffs with studs….
My EDC pen is a Fisher Bullet Space Pen. They make it in a few formats, including the Bullet shaped one that slips into the leather cover for my thin notepad (Moleskin or Field Notes). One of my friends loves the Stowaway version, which is really thin while another of my friends enjoys the Backpacker model. They write on nearly anything, upside down, and even on wet or oily items, yet are compact enough to carry in your pocket, attached to a backpack, or stowed away in your new EDC bag.
0:01 The irony of Laura doing the intro right in front of a Mission Workshop sign (amazing SF edc bag company who I think fits the ethos of Laura) is wild!
Soo cool! I need one for my writing and sketching and occasionally finding stuff on the street! And my little daughter definitely needs one for her most important tools, toys and there is even a place for scavenged Chestnuts!
I've been trying to think what a rigger's bag/ditty bag would be in outer space. and that belt/ratchet strap is definitely along the same train of thought. i love it.
Cool project, Laura. Perhaps a safety consideration: Maybe consider making the tool roll its own, removable thing, so you don't have to completely take the pouch off and completely unfold it, just to get to a tool. Unfolding the whole thing on an urban street makes all your contents pretty vulnerable. Sad that we need to think about these things, but such is city life these days.
I just made myself a leather fannypack satchel, that I'm still working on the for, but now you have completely re-thinking the design. Guess I now get to figure a good way to mate my leather satchel with a tool roll made from the carcass of an old backpack I no longer use. Watching maker channels always begets me more hobby work. :)
This was a very fascinating video, one of your best creations, I'm all about EDC, have been for years. I think you nailed it with this EDC bag. Awesome, can't wait to see an actual one and all the functions it will have. Nicely done!
The 4in1 scene is so funny. I laughed so hard wathing this for the first time. Also very relatable for a native german speaker consuming a alot of english content!
I’m very happy to see this project go from idea to realisation. Mostly because your joy was so intense! I say that because it makes me feel like you’re getting back to you roots, not for us (the viewers) but for yourself. Seeing this makes me realise how much I missed your creative videos are awesome. The videos about Lise Lotte were/are awesome but this feels like you are more in your creative zone. Enjoy your new bag! I definitely hope it makes it to market :)
"Emotional Support Tool Roll" (ESTR) - pronounced like 'Esther.' Meaning of the name 'Esther': The name Esther is believed to be derived from the Hebrew root s-t-r, meaning "to hide," which reflects the Persian queen's concealed identity. Alternatively, it's linked to the Old Persian word stāra, meaning "star," which connects to the Near Eastern goddess Ishtar. So, a bag named after something that means both 'hide' and 'star'-perfect for discreetly stashing your cool street finds while shining bright in your unique way! I absolutely love it!
Was that Adam saying he likes to get blitzed? 😏 Awesome, lovely, heartwarming video as always, Laura. I've been looking for a small hip pack thats just big enough to carry tools, pump and a spare tube when I'm on the bike, and this looks like the perfect form factor. One suggestion I'd make is to have enough space between the belt loops to carry a u-lock. I don't know how much wide appeal that would have, but itd certainly be useful.
For several years now my go-to ratchet screwdriver has been a Lutz 15-in-one that features slotted, phillips, torx and square bits in varied sizes. Unbelievably handy for a single tool. A bit heavier than your 4-in-one, but not by much. Say hi to Smudo for me!
Such an inspiring project! It’s great to see how you merged your ideas about a functional tool with real needs. The prototyping process looks fascinating, and it's impressive how quickly you achieved such a great result. Good luck with the next steps! 💪🔧
Hi there, I saw in the comments that you're gonna release the patterns for this. Just to stoke the fire a bit: I'm refreshing your shop every week to see if they're there yet, I hope you'll release them soon! Love the design :)
Yup, I noticed that too. It goes a LONG way explaining that olde suspect attention span he speaks of on occasion! Adam must be a wonderful nightmare to work for.
I would LOVE THIS for my drawing supplies. I often walk around with a couple Copic markers, sketching pencils, two sketchpads etc. This would be PERFECT!!!!
As an artist who always wants to collect small things off the streets but has no pockets that can get dirty, I absolutely love this idea ❤❤ an area for your sketchbook and pens?? And potentially more tools, like tape, clips, stickers.... What could you possibly want more?!
Wow that's so many features into that one tiny fanny pack that's crazy. I love the tool roll idea though, you don't see many fanny packs out there that have this.
Laura. Fantastic video ..what a great idea . I’m a woodcarver this bag would be great for taking on a hike or to the club when doing a small project,, be great if you could add a rain cover, like on many back packs . Say hello to the family for me 👍😇🇺🇸
A selection of blades is unimaginably useful. My EDC includes my Leatherman and it's several blades, a folding razor knife, and a fixed-blade Benchmade. All of them get regular use.
This is so much more usable for a bike emergency tool kit (and general use) pouch than the type I see advertised for cyclists. If you produce and market it, definitely include the cycling market.
I love the idea SO much. I have a small shoulder bag that I am thinking of converting for this purpose. Please consider making it in olive drab, brown--- some natural earth colors, etc.
Oh my god I want one!!! If you publish a pattern I could maaaybe crank one out on my old Singer 15. Also, in the microwave shot, you were down the street from Mission Workshop, another fantastic bag maker!
You should sell the pattern for the bag like Adam does I’ve bought all his patterns and made a couple bags for myself with my own materials it’s an awesome option
I'm seconding this. If large-scale manufacturing is not an option, ok, but this is just too good of a design to be unobtainium.
Yeah, especially with the sustainable factor : I have some material laying around, let's make it with it and maybe add / remove feature that are not needed for me. Appropriate the design and make our own product out of it while still supporting the initial idea somehow.
Hi Laura, I agree with the pattern suggestion. I am a leathercrafter. I might want to try that bag out with scrap leather.
Patterns! Yes!
Yes!
Putting an Adam savage coop in a 10min video like it's nothing 😂 visiting his Workshop is a lifetime goal for many people...
Laura, you made it. Keep on living your Dreams!
100 will not be nearly enough, Laura. I think a lot of people would want this. I'm one of them - this would be PERFECT as a little sketching kit!
If she wants to sell it in Germany, over 100 would be too much. We like to spend money on usefull things, but 100+ is too much. A bag this size should be approx between 60 and 80.

I would LOVE THIS for my drawing supplies. I often walk around with a couple Copic markers, sketching pencils, two sketchpads etc. This would be PERFECT!!!!
As an artist who always wants to collect small things off the streets but has no pockets that can get dirty, I absolutely love this idea ❤❤ an area for your sketchbook and pens?? And potentially more tools, like tape, clips, stickers.... What could you possibly want more?!
Love this, also, I love that I first found your videos via Adam Savage :)
Such a great tool bag❤️💪🏽. I am in love with it👌🏾
Wow that's so many features into that one tiny fanny pack that's crazy. I love the tool roll idea though, you don't see many fanny packs out there that have this.
I want that bag!!!! I pick stuff up all the time, and it's the perfect thing.
I thought Adam said Foreign One also.
the crossover we didn't know we needed :') love this!
I want one!!! what a perfect combo
You've got a large enough fan base to produce more than 100 of these. Plus making more will push the production costs down.
This is AMAZING for the film industry, I am in art dept and NEED this!
I've accumulated 15 or 20 pounds of lead over the years by picking up the lead tire balancing weights I find at the curb :-).
This is an awesome design, would be great to see the pattern available too, to allow for people to change up the design and personalise too
Laura. Fantastic video ..what a great idea . I’m a woodcarver this bag would be great for taking on a hike or to the club when doing a small project,, be great if you could add a rain cover, like on many back packs . Say hello to the family for me 👍😇🇺🇸
Oh my gosh! Next time you ate here in SF, you should have a fan meet up. I wud love to say hi . I am a big fan of both you and Mr. Savage.
I’ve been hoping for this collaboration since you started coming over to Cali. Really love the bag design.
I love the nerdiness of this, and it appeals to me as a low-level scavenger
This is really cool! I want to try to make one of my own prototype version based off of what I saw on this video!
That's a really cool bag, congrats
How about a limited run of a gazillion? This bag has the potential to go viral worldwide ❤
Hi Laura, one thing that I would carry is a small bottle of hand sanitiser just to kill any bugs that get on my hands.
A selection of blades is unimaginably useful. My EDC includes my Leatherman and it's several blades, a folding razor knife, and a fixed-blade Benchmade. All of them get regular use.
Your bag gave me ideas for bags I make. I would like to say that I sell them in France, but I don't really have any orders.
Making a custom bag in San Francisco and I thought, "Oh, this should be an Adam Savage colab" I was delighted!
Hi! I'm from Costa Rica & I love your bag is very nice to carry every thing❤
This is so much more usable for a bike emergency tool kit (and general use) pouch than the type I see advertised for cyclists. If you produce and market it, definitely include the cycling market.
I love the idea SO much. I have a small shoulder bag that I am thinking of converting for this purpose. Please consider making it in olive drab, brown--- some natural earth colors, etc.
EMOTIONAL SUPPORT TOOL BAG! I knew instantly what you meant and what it needs to contain (for me). Put me on the list!
My packing list for my emotional support roll is different, but whoa I love this project!!!
Oh my god I want one!!! If you publish a pattern I could maaaybe crank one out on my old Singer 15. Also, in the microwave shot, you were down the street from Mission Workshop, another fantastic bag maker!
I think I just found my new favourite channel.
