Printing & paper sizes
Open the PDF with Adobe Reader and print at "actual size". Do not use "fit to page" or "shrink to fit" — those resize the pattern and the pieces will not line up.
Larger patterns are spread across several sheets. Print them all, line up the marks, and tape the sheets together before you start cutting.

Reviews
I have a few preferred pattern creators and Tony is one of them. This laptop case was fun to make and I‘m a beginner and doing this as hobby. This truly is an eye catcher. I used instead of a copper rod a copper pipe, found it much quicker at the near hardware store. It holds very good the weight of a laptop and around 300 pages of documents plus a mouse, charger and other little belongings. Thank you and keep up the great work!
THE best pattern maker ever....... This was one of the best patterns I've ever worked on and I think it turned out perfect
I haven't made this pattern yet. I absolutely love the design and I was going to, but I saw the dimensions. I have 2 laptops (work and personal), both are small, but each would barely fit in this briefcase. I may play with scaling on this a little. If it were just an inch larger (25mm) in length and width, it would be a lot more functional in my mind. Didn't see a was to just send a message so...
