Sweet, can't wait to see it...

When you do, can you elaborate on the functionality?

Always keen to know what goes into a project. :)

Will do, John. The design was from a picture of a buddies rev bag. It has six kite pockets the one on the right is a little larger to accomodate the incoming shockwave. ;) each sleeve will hold at least 2 1.5's in their sleeve. The pockets, by chance each ended up as two pockets; just by design and sewing. Works out well though for handles in the back and line sets in the front. I'll see you in April John an you can check it out. Not perfect by any means but a good first try. :)

Just posted some pics in my gallery Rev B Series. Finally realized you have to upload pics from a real computer, not a mobile Apple device. ;)

Thanks RR, it's serving it's purpose. I keep this up though and it won't be big enough to hold all the revs. :). Still waiting on some patches from Los Hermanos And Polo with the arrival of the Polo mid-vent.

Well, that's a good reason to make another bag (bigger). It usually take two or three attempts, before you get it big enough........... You've got two choices, sell some kites, or make a bigger bag - or both ! :ani_whistling:

This "Bigger Bag" is really taking a long time, to materialize :ani_sleep:
