bored on ebay which is always expensive, ended up buying 2 knackered gladstone bags. not sure if anyone has any hints or tips on what to do with them. was thinking of stripping them down, using the pieces for patterns, taking all the rivets off etc and re-making them, polishing all the bits etc.
also, was thinking of adding a strap to them, but not sure if that is correct?
if anyone has any tips before i start, they would be greatly appreciated. i am hoping to have the smaller one done by christmas, the big one i am not sure about
Nice old bags.
@paul p To be honest, they both look like they could be restored, which is a fun project on its own.
Just be aware that many parts have been moulded and stretched into position, so laying some pieces flat and copying the dimensions will be a far cry from the original pattern.
