Found a Sketching Kit box solution

[Alan White]

Having ever since starting sketching last year struggled to find a workable means of carrying the items away from my eyepieces etc.
and failed badly;
Well no longer is that the case, nice simple solution from Hobby Craft at £9.99.

All this fits in with space to spare.  That's an A5 sketch pad in black.

     

Room for growth of kit, it's bound too after all, it's Astro related and we all know how it just grows on it's own!!

It's amazing just how much pleasure a few pencils and a sketch pad can give you. And all for less than £10! What are you going to buy with the penny Alan?

Save it towards another sketch book of course.

Very practical. I use a cool bag (like a soft butty bag) although I have a pencil roll.

Nice Derwent pencil roll Shane, clearly I have more kit to buy yet.
I like the masks, DIY I presume.
What are the white things on the right for?

Yeah I made the circle templates with broken oouk scope covers and a compass cutter https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F292051332007

The white things are blending stumps for smudges e.g

A soft putty rubber is a good addition too

Same here  

Keeps (most of) the moist out of your stuff, too.  

Those blending stumps are great for galaxies and nebulae.
