Happy New Year! I have searched for a long time how to carry my EDC, I looked and looked at Pocket Organizers, Skiths and some leather products but none quit fit my needs: 1) Carry my EDC 2) FIT IN MY POCKET! So I built my own, props to Grid-It who I found out after making this make a very similar product, but again none pocket sized though I love how versatile and accesible it is. well worth £2.50! If you would like to make your own, you will need: Elastic 3metres is more than enough for a pocket organiser Hard cardboard, I used a cutup book cover (see pic) Stapler Optional: Duck Tape (or any tape you have around) to make the hard cover extra hard and with round edges. Step 1: Simply measure elastic tape and staple together the ends to form a loop, do this for the all vertical size (see picture, between cover and stapler you can see an example of how I did this) Step 2: Do the same for the horizontal ones, this time going in and out of the vertical, if you need some extra space, like I left for my card holder and ipod then leave 2 spaces. Staple together in the back, hide behind vertical spaces. Sorry I didnt explain myself very well, but its actually quite easy and anyone with elastic and a stapler can do it! Post below if you need any help. ME
Its seriously super easy to make, 2 episodes of Homeland to be exact! The combination of Staples + Elastic is super strong and holds together flat and cleanly. ME
I'm inclined to agree - they make a pretty decent organizer on their own (link), but you've taken it a step further. Great work and thanks for sharing!
That is really cool and clean looking. One of my hesitations on getting a Skinth is the limitations they can impose. You need to have it settled on what to carry, or get several of the pouches for a lot of money. Not knocking them, for people that can make up their minds, or have the funds, they are gorgeous pieces of work and craftsmanship. But, I truly enjoy the simplicity of this.
Made a little Pocket grid while filming it, hopefully it will help show exactly how easy it is to make, will post tonight when I get home ME
I love this idea, thanks for sharing! I'm gonna try and fabricate a larger version to mount in the lid of my bike's top-case to keep stuff from flying around in there.
As promised! Please note english is not my first language, hope it helps someone. edit: My bad, sorry. ME
Grid-It is 1 sided, smallest size is 7" so not real pocketable, its also not possible to tailor the spaces between grids. I think they are different products, not competing with each other. ME
