I'm constantly receiving or buying all sorts of original, routine, and ordinary - as well as rare and one-of-a-kind - WWI, WWII, KW, VN and modern-era duffle bags, shelter halves, kit bags, ponchos, officers' bed rolls, tool rolls, musette bags, field packs, pouches and all manner of OD canvas, khaki, or camo whathaveyou, to repurpose into tributes that clients use, care for, share, and showcase every day as relevant, vibrant remembrances of those who served.

The best place to see my latest custom laptop bags, drawstring bags, and 'waist belt bags': my Instagram feed @thesignaldepot

Happy to chat.

I would like to take this opportunity to state that Rob's workmanship on these bags is outstanding and excellent value for the money.I would not hesitate to use his services in the future.The custom bag he produced for me,far exceeded my expectations.
Buy with confidence.

Please be patient,he is very busy with multiple projects.He will respond. I know he prefers another social media platform.I'm to old to get into that arena. Maybe that would be an avenue for you to try.(instagram?)

chibobber: thanks for kind words - I enjoyed making your bag and learning about the story behind the pieces your wanted me to include.
m14msgt: apologies for the delay in the response to the PM. Glad we connected, and I'm looking forward to crafting your bag. I've got just a couple special orders remaining on my 'backlog' list - but I should be able to start yours in a couple weekends. Then I'll be cranking out a few to take to SOS in Louisville.
Thanks again.
Rob

I'm someone else who joined the "G" just go get ahold of Rob.

Its a mix of I want to commission something and I want to donate (hoping there are some offsets expense-wise).

Should I PM him or just post in this thread what I have?

Haven't heard back so I thought I would post again.

What I am hoping is RobL could make a wallet out of a vintage Swiss cleaning rod pouch like this

Its a bit shorter than my current wallet, and a tad longer, but I think it would work. Cut off the flap to make card pockets.

Also have various canvas to donate to help keep the costs down

Hi Fushigi

I think we've swapped some PMs and emails. Happy to look at what you've got in mind. As I suggested in the PM, best to contact me at my email address.

Thanks

Rob L.
