I use a very similar tool roll and I put a safety pin through the chord to stop it slowly coming undone while cycling. I'm not really in the market to buy a new one now, but you're in a great opportunity to make a roll that doesn't need a safety pin.

The bigxtop tool rolls came with this buckle design so I presumed it would be fine as he made those for years. In an earlier design I used a thinner webbing and that could slip slightly. This is a thicker one and it seemed okay in my tests. I will include a tri glide on the webbing to help keep it secure.

Agreed. I made myself one identical to the above and it comes loose quickly with this type of closure only.
Edit: Maker says it works so I guess these ones are fine

Hello,
With this extra free time a lot of us have, I have been making myself some bags. It takes more time working out the design than the actual sewing so I thought I would make a few extra and see if I can sell them.
These are the classic under saddle tool roll you see a few companies doing. The only real difference is they are a little bigger and can hold a bigger tube. I designed it around tube that can fit up to 29x2.4. I have also tried it with a 25c tube and that worked nicely too.
Made with black 1000D cordura and ladder lock buckle.
Dimensions when open 30cm x 27cm
3 for sale at £20 each including p&p (I'm not in London so no collection sorry)
If these sell I will make a donation to the forum.
Cheers
