I Like!!  thmbsup    That's a Home run! you cover all the bases for Good Usable and on the cheap!!!  hdslp I Wish I would have saved all those old welding gloves! The fingers would turn rock hard and I would just get new ones [hmm] same thing with the Leather Welding aprons a lot of good leather got tossed in the trash :'(    And not to forget all the Spike and Bolt Kegs we went and trashed or burnt for heat in the winter  :'( :'(

thanks for all the positive responses. had this old welding jacket lying around which I wasn't  using anymore. In fact I was thinking about tossing it in the garbage a few weeks ago, but got distracted with other stuff and forgot about it until the day I went out hunting. I was using a hunting fanny pack. but when I tried to open the flap, the velcro would make noise and the zipper would make noise. so I decided to make something a little more quiet. the button is from the arts and craft store Micheal's. Can't wait to take it out into the woods., Thanks again

Great job repurposing that and now you've got a fireproof bag to boot. It might even meet Kalifornia safety regulations, as long as you don't use lead for your bullets.
