Searching for kits again, inspired by a recent social media post, I came up with these. Seems I'm aaaaall about the portable potions, and just can't get enough kits! These creations by random artists online meet a variety of needs, live-action role-playing to practical, alchemy to potistry to herbalism, and anything else the mind can fathom. . . .
Alchemy kitbox with glassware, ingredients and book
This type of open, easy-access "shelf" runs similar to what I've envisioned making for Pagan fairs to use as a mobile vendor, with perhaps a stash storage cabinet beneath the shelf. The only thing to watch for with this arrangement, besides glassware that can be knocked off and broken, is that it can get really heavy really quickly.
Some little potions meant for display and awesome-factor don't need to be functional, but I prefer them to be.
Check this out. T'would go well with my potion "ammo belt", as long as it didn't hinder mobility too much. Potion containers can utterly festoon a person yet remain hidden under robes and cloaks.
A nice little folding alchemy kit with straps, vials and tools
Another pretty folding kit for alchemy or herbs.
An alchemy kit less practical than it is meant to be displayed openly, but what a slash design.
Very nice and useful, flexible leather kitbox of a convenient size, and no doubt lighter in weight than its wooden cousins
Again built in a folding leather kitbox style, this could be a fully functional mini herbal or medical apothecary
"Awww!" Tiny phials that fit via loops over a belt. Perfect for assassins
Beautiful folding leather alchemy or magistry kitbox
One of these leather kits again, with a tray that lifts out, and perhaps slightly different containers and tools
Elegantly-worked leather pouches by a German company. The clasps are available from Tandy Leather; a local store named Fabric Depot used to carry them, and I am beyond bummed that Fabric Depot just went o.o.b. (out of business)! Now where will I go? . . .!
Truly stylish carriables in the form of books, because what alchemist worth their salt isn't fond of fat tomes?
Making such kits costs materials and time, but I look forward to trying my hand at a few of these designs, oh, a dozen or so projects in the future from now.
