I tried using the "flap" pockets for tools early on but got tired of
loading them back in each time I opened it. I've been toying with the
idea of a velcro or stretchy strap over the open part where the
pockets end. Just haven't decided how to attach it yet, I don't think
the self-adhesive stuff would stay, I wouldn't try sewing it, perhaps
rivets or snaps?!
