 Hi again Pax. Cool storage idea. You are anything but subtle with your steering!! The idea of flat storage is a good one we should all think about for leather and rubber straps. Great idea that box.

I noticed on paneristi site that there is a guy who sells boxes he makes up from interesting old things - draftsmen's tool boxes, protractor cases, lots of cool stuff. His ideas and yours have finally convinced me that I should go on a box-hunt and make some for myself. 85 plus 50 plus 20 (short strap plus watch plus buckle) means that each bay shoud be about 55 wide and about 170 to 180 long. Off to the auction houses I go.... Will post up pics when done in a coupla weeks.  I'm not a commercial animal, I just like the idea of making one for myself in my spare time. Oh - better make that four weeks or so! ;) 

Cheers all!
