Alligator Bags, Lockers, Bench Planes, Deployable Flight Recorders

Overview

Selected alligator hides are cut, reinforced, stitched and finished into luxury handbags. Sheet metal is punched, folded and joined to make storage lockers; cast bodies, sharpened blades and shaped handles become woodworking bench planes; and protected recording units are enclosed in deployable housings designed to preserve aircraft data after an accident.
