Good Job! Conversely, I wanted a good walk around camera bag that would hold a body with lens attached, a 70-300 telephoto zoom and a third compartment for the sb-600 flash, and a side pocket to hold a reflector, gray card and manuals. I have experience with an industrial sewing machine so I made a leather bag out of two pair of motorcycle chaps and a leather trench coat. After three weeks of designing, drawing, cutting, padding and construction it came out very nicely. but I could have sold the leather garments on consignment for about $200. and I've seen good leather bags for about the same price without all the work. But it was fun!. Tom Beard
