New prototype bag!

Bryan has been using my first small dice bag prototype and it hasn't held up very well at all.  I knew it wouldn't before I was done with it but I was just testing the size so I didn't bother reinforcing it since it was just a test.  I made changes and all the little bags are good and sturdy now.  However, the bags don't hold normal sized dice very well.  Bryan hasn't lost one yet but he's been careful.  So I came up with the idea of adding an interior bag and finished the prototype!  I was headed to the beach for another reason but why not take pics of the new bag too?  Because doesn't everyone play dice games at the beach?  =)


It holds a good amount of dice (the bag is a bit more than half full of dice) and the bag doesn't distort! However, the magnet isn't quite strong enough to always hold shut.  Just carrying it, I noticed that it popped open once or twice.  Part of that could be me trying to jump out of the way of waves coming in, but I would like to find stronger magnets.  The ones I use on my knitting bags are really strong but too large for these little bags.

The inner bag also needs just a bit of work.  It's too bulky and doesn't cinch closed as tightly as I would like.  I tipped the bag upside down and shook it trying to get dice to fall out and none did but the gap is big enough that I think it would be possible.  That's a pretty easy fix though so the next one should close tighter and then it won't even be a possibility.
