    He's got nothing on my wallet!

    Kinda a mix of wine & several different tutorials fused with 'making it up as I went along'
    I don't think it can be beaten

    I was expecting some bright yellow tape in the mix to give it a bit of industrial colour

    Mine can hold coins courtesy of a press stud (which was a pain to do) wanted to use one to close the wallet but it won't go through so many layers, did my card pockets differently as well, not bad I don't think for a first attempt with very little guidance after the initial large pocket.

    As to whether I'll actually use it...not so sure!

    Maybe Scan should get them made up using their own packing tape ?? Great sales gimmick
    Cheers, David

    If someone from Scan wants to send me a roll I'll give it a shot

    Thought of some ideas to improve this, might have to buy a few more rolls tonight
