John.. the Piano tuner with his Piano Tuner Tote Bagg

After John started tuning pianos, he looked at me and said, the large Nantucket Bagg (aka the Original Nantucket Bagg) would be perfect for my piano tuning tools.  Sure enough, after several years of using his Original Nantucket Bagg as a piano tool tote, he is very happy with how it works for his on site visits.  The world of piano tuners is going to them, not having the piano come to you.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Of course, there are some lessons John has learned that we want to pass along.  Please remember to not put short tools in the long pockets, or you will be doing what John is doing here.  He is using a hooked tool to pull tools back out of the long pockets.  The tight pockets keep everything in place, sometimes even when you don’t want them to – but laying the bagg on the side releases the pressure on the tools and you can work them out  – then put them in the shorter pockets.  The Nantucket Bagg Company also has small clear pouches available ( made with solar energy by Igas Island) that fit in the larger pockets – perfect for all those little tools.

The Workhorse of Knitting Bags

The Tidy Knitter

The Nantucket 522 Diddy Bagg is the workhorse of knitting bags whether at home or on the road. With thirty pockets, this tote bag can be used in several different configurations. Unzipped, it becomes a wall rack or tool rollup or it can carry your knitting needles and accessories on the inside – usually for traveling – or on the outside for storage at home or short trips. If traveling by air, use your bag as a tool roll up and pack it in your suitcase, tuck your project in your suitcase then on arrival you will have your knitting bag with you – without having paid to take it along.
