Denim is great for making an organizer for wrenches. Why jeans? Because it is in almost every home, because many of us like to wear jeans. Also, the material is practical and durable, easy to wear, can withstand any load.
The cover can be not only a classic form, but also in the form of a waist bag.
How to make, how to correctly calculate the size of each pocket
To sew a case for wrenches you will need: denim, slanting trim, pins, crayon, pencil, ruler and scissors.
First, determine the size of the cover by laying out the keys in a row in descending order. Using a ruler and chalk, measure the width of each section. In our case, the width of the widest pocket is 7 cm, the subsequent ones are 0.5 cm smaller. As a result, the total length of the product turned out to be 76 cm, the height of the largest wrench - 18 cm, and the smallest - 11 cm. Now remove the keys and open the pocket along the marked lines. Draw a line from the largest to the smallest key. After cut the resulting part, leaving allowances for all sections. Fold the top pocket cut to the wrong side and hem. Set aside and start manufacturing the main part of the cover.
Open the canvas as follows:product length - 76 cm, width - 50 (fold in the middle of the product). The width of the organizer should equal the width of the pocket. Cut a rectangle and fold in half. Using the pins on top, sketch the part of the pocket and lay the line on the typewriter. Sew along the intended lines, making a tack at the end. Round the bottom corners. Sew a slanting tape around the perimeter of the cover. Tool case ready. If desired, you can make a clasp using a tape - Velcro or accessories. Now losing keys is almost impossible.
Tips for jeans
To sew a tool bag, it is not necessary to use only jeans. You can replace it with a raincoat fabric, tarpaulin, nylon or leather.
Leather or nylon materials are dense, tear resistant and wear resistant.
Faux leather, loses in quality to the skin and it is not so easy to find. As for nylon, it is quite possible to find it in the assortment of stores. It is universal and cheaper. Bags, organizers and covers made of nylon do not require special care and are almost weightless.
You can sew a case for wrenches from a cloth-based oilcloth. The main advantages of fabric, in cheapness and density. This is the most suitable option for those who want to practice cutting and sewing. But keep in mind that in durability the oilcloth is still inferior to the skin.
If you decide to make a waist bag for tools, you can alter old briefcase or handbag. Remember, the bag for "home helpers" should be comfortable, spacious and have several compartments.
