Another part of the laptop brief case project was this very intricate clip for the shoulder strap, along with the D-ring it was clipped onto. Size of this clip was around 1 1/2 long x 1/2 in width.

These piece’s were probably some of the most interesting an challenging piece’s I’ve had to make in a while. They were designed for a local designer doing a line of laptop briefcases.  The first components were the piece’s that held the handle to the top of the bag. Integrated into the piece was a small d-ring that would flip up when the user wanted ti attach a shoulder strap instead of using the handle on it’s own.

After years and years of using a traditional type web site I have finally decided to update my portfolio with the ease of blogging. If you are just visiting my site for the first time, you will see that there are 3 main categories, Jewelry, Machine shop and Product development. These are the three main types of work that come through my shop. over the next while i will be slowly updating the site with pictures of piece’s i have made over the past few years, along with stories and photo’s of projects I am currently working on.
