I would someday like to get into sewing myself but that's another rabbit hole.
@4090Sharps thank you for putting this tutorial together. I have never done anything like this before, and this thread is the reason why I tried. Just finished mine up.
Definitely! Thanks againLooks good! Don't forget to cut off those noisy metal zipper tabs and replace them with cord.
I got sidetracked with life and a couple other projects, so haven't finished up the instructional pouch yet. I'll do it tomorrow while I work on a long-promised project for another member.
So.... How should I give it away? Anyone want to nominate a friend? Nominated friend needs to be a dues paid SH member.
I got bored and started think about a new design. Let me know what you guys think about my first Prototype design.

planning to add a bucket on the side to make it easier to take the rope in and out.
Sorry I meant to say buckle. The buckle will make it so I don’t have to thread the rope and hardware through the hole.Cool concept. I'm not sure what you mean by "bucket", so I'm interested in seeing it once added. You may find utility in swapping that black webbing on the side for elastic webbing.

So I added the buckle to make it easier to load and unload the rope. Also here is a video of why I left one side open.

When the rope is rolled up in figure 8 it pulls out with out getting tangled. Let me know what any suggestions you guys have. I can’t really have a final version till I actually get my single step gear. once I actually get the rope I can see if the size is right.
I have to saying it not going to bad for my first original sewing project and only using the sewing machine for just a dozen times or so.
Have you considered making it semi-rigid with some thin HDPE or EVA foam. It could be overkill, but might make it even easier to just drop the rope straight in, with minimal additional weight and bulk.
