A thirty inch boot lace would work very well for this.<br /> They work well but a caution should be mentioned against using them for any long term storage, the cloth will act to attract and hold moisture. When empty, I store them hanging up in a climate controlled(dehumidified)garage.<br /><br />They also make excellent carriers for loose odds and ends including tools, spare subgun barrels and range brass which I always end up with after shooting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-42412561086561383312011-05-22T22:42:30.912-05:002011-05-22T22:42:30.912-05:00Most such cases have belt-loops on the back.

Use a piece of stiff copper wire to make a frame to keep the top open - easy to close with one hand in a hurry - just bend the wire.<br /><br />HTH...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7575061201749703300.post-61262425141132875702011-05-22T22:28:18.162-05:002011-05-22T22:28:18.162-05:00Perfect cammo, hidden in plain sight.

Using Sack patching cement and soaking both the surfaces to be glued together I have a large inside cargo packet on both sides (inside) of my field jacket and other places wherever needed.Dakotahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02261415021692766579noreply@blogger.com
