I used to work at @tinyspeck. Now I make bags and ride bikes.

Merry Christmas

@andrew_jaqam Wait—why are you going to NY?

[Andre @torrez]

@andrew_jaqam I dunno. Staff, family, other meetings to coincide with being in NY?

[Andre @torrez]

@andrew_jaqam Someone told me it’s because the UN is in session and I believed him because it sounded like something NY would do.

[Andre @torrez]

@reyhan Nice! I’m a huge fan of ILE’s stuff.

[Andre @torrez]

The logo lives!

[Andre @torrez]

@capndesign It was in my calendar.

[Andre @torrez]

@capndesign happy half-birthday!

[Andre @torrez]

@spavis I think about scenes from this movie all the time! I was thinking about when Daniel wanted to taste Rip Torn’s food earlier this week.

[Andre @torrez]

@pleathermusk Ugh! I’m sorry. That doesn’t make any sense!

[Andre @torrez]

@cbujnowicz Ooh! I didn’t know that. Just looked it up, yep, Ultrafeed LSZ-1. It’s bulletproof and can handle so many different tasks. I might upgrade to the Sailrite Fabricator just because the company has such good support.

[Andre @torrez]

I had a good day making bags. Here’s my new office. I’m in a co-working place in Walnut Creek and I’m the only person there without a computer.

[Andre @torrez]

@cbujnowicz It’s a Sailrite LSZ-1 and I do like it but now that I’ve used it for a bit I realize how much cool stuff more traditional industrial machines have. This is supposed to be portable for people on boats.

[Andre @torrez]

@faraz_r_khan Whoaaah that’s a dream project! Did you do the Crucible class? I would love to make some bags for it!

[Andre @torrez]

@faraz_r_khan Thanks! Messenger bags and tote bags right now. Still feeling things out. I have some examples over here https://t.co/KRMzstaU9Y

[Andre @torrez]

@threeze I haven’t really sold any yet. But I’m selling today’s tote bag next week. And then doing a run of messenger bags.

[Andre @torrez]

@luxuryluke @garrettmurray Yep. Cordura, XPac, and some vinyl coated stuff. I’m having a lot of fun!

[Andre @torrez]

Hi! I made this bag today.

[Andre @torrez]

@garrettmurray After I saw this I bought one and picked it up within a couple hours. Thanks! I like it a lot.

@cdrodriguez Joke was on her, the kids had the library card, not Michael so as I stepped to the side Michael also stepped to the side and I was able to nod at him and he nodded back at me.

[Andre @torrez]

I worked at the Beverly Hills Public Library in the 90s and two kids tried to check some books out with an expired card so I asked them if their parent could come in renew it and so they went and got John Lithgow out of the car. He was nice!
