Did some more work during the weekend!
1) made a bead for the lanyard (and started to make the lanyard)
2) made a leather cover for the tube and part of the head
3) put some varnish on the wood support

1) After a post last week, I remembered I had a copper rod and decided to do a small bead for the lanyard I will use in this flashlight.
I was going to use my small battery powered drill but I realized it would take forever, so I asked my father some help with his Black&Decker and the metal bits! Took only some seconds to drill a hole :o I would take a week with mine and my files 
I used the files you see in the image to “carve” those 4 grooves along the bead! It took a while but looked nice, IMO!
Here’s the result!
I also started to make a lanyard that will only be completed after putting the pocket clip on it 
The lanyard uses black 7 inner string paracord, and has a diamond knot in the end and snake knots along lanyard.

2) I also used some time to make the handle/cover for the battery tube and the head. I used some leather and waxed thread I bought in a cobbler nearby.
Used a kitchen fork to make the spaced marks and used some regular needles to stitch it.
It is not the best stitching ever, but it will survive! It is hard to use this material without experience

3) Last but not least, I applicated some spray varnish on the wood support! It looks shiny now
