Sacks
#1
I know these are pretty cheap details to buy, but sometimes we have some scraps laying around, or jut want to make something, or there is no LHS close by.

I took a piece of scrap brass tube and made some sacks. I simply used a scale ruler and diagonal cutters.
   

Just mark off the tube in appropriate scale increments, I used 18 scale inches, and then cut with the diagonal cutters. The cutters crush the end of the tube as it cuts. Be careful, the cut sacks tens to fly, so direct the cutters downward or into a box.

   

I glued them together in a small stack, and painted them with craft paint.

   

Sorry the photos aren't the best, I used an old point-and-shoot camera. Ambitious fold could probably try and simulate some kind of label or lettering on the sacks.
