Fountain pen case with Tile tracker

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 as the leather stretches.

Once I had the shape it was time for a dry fit. When I was happy with the fit I applied the chocolate dye.

After the dye it was time to start bringing the pieces together.

After putting all of the pieces together all I had to do was to work out which strap to use as I was going to add a name I went with the wider option.

Stitching in progress.

There was quite a bit of work involved in getting from the previous picture to the next but involved putting a name on the strap which I cannot share. So here is the finished case complete with Tile tracking pocket. Unfortunately I don’t have a Tile tracker myself so I made one from wood.
