Tool roll leather: absolutely agree must use veggie tan leather.  Most
upholstery and clothing leathers (thinner, softer, brightly colored) are
chrome tanned.  Trust me, even if it has a cloth lining, chrome tanned
leather will rust your tools (acidic vapors from the embedded chromium
salts I'm told, not an expert) .  Purchasing small amounts of veggie tanned
leather is pretty easy over the internet.  Many suppliers, local saddle
shops for people in the countryside,  city leather hobby shops etc
Cheers
