    What is the item with the cords and balls? That is something I don't think I have seen nor do I know what it is or is used for.

    That's about it..... everything fits with room to spare for extra stuff.

    Yep - Little bitty flexible tripod. Great for the times that you want to get yourself into the shot, and there's nobody else around.

    I see some of you carry loose change. How do you get to it without taking everything out of your sporran? I have one of those plastic squeeze things to keep my change in, but normally don't carry it with my sporran.

    That's a good point. I don't have a picture yet, but I carry lots of stuff, and the coins get lost without something to organize. I mostly make sure there's a flask.

    I have one of those rubber squeeze coin purses as well, but I also have a very small leather draw-string bag that holds more if I'm going to be out all day. If I use the leather bag, I usually have things like change, nail clippers, guitar picks, chap stick, and a small Swiss Army knife.

    I highly recommend the little change purse from CavScout, too, since it slides in and out more easily than the suede pouch I use.

    Thanks for pointing it out. I've just added it to my belt and sporran strap order.

    Usually just keys and the wallet. Any more, and the sporran begins to rub against the steering wheel. If I need more storage space, I add the detachable survival pockets from my old Utilikilt that I recently retired. Normally attach them to the kilt belt.

    This is a pic of Turpin at Stone Mtn last weekend. He can carry in his that large (I mean EXLARGE or GRANDE) Flask with his own glass. He was not going to run out, that's for sure!!! And the Glass added some CLASS...
