Handlebar mount

My new LED torch showed up yesterday, faster than i expected from Hong Kong (hurrah for cheap electronics!).

After buying some rechargeable AAAs for it I need to work out a way of mounting it to my bars...

this one looks good - using old inner tubes to create tension

Messenger Bags

Not that im a Fixie Hipster or anything... but I could really do with a bigger messenger /shoulder strap type bag. I've got a small one that I use regularly that I picked up from TKMAX years ago. However, its absolutely tiny; it must be 15 litres at the most and really can't fit much in it. When I take my climbing gear with me to work it's bursting out of it throughout the day. and that's with my locks dangling on the outside
So I've started using my Arette 35 but its so bloody huge its ridiculous.
Saw Bre do a weekend projects on messenger bags for MAKE: a while ago, using ironed up bin liners and stolen vinyl from supermarkets... nice video guide

Also saw LFGSS has a nice merged post on some of the forumengers attempts
pretty
no linky!

Also some nice project photos here snoop
