  1. Luke, I am sorry to hear you have not received your PIF. If you send me your address I will gladly send you something I made. WINDY
  2. Tom, Great looking necklace. I have to say I thought of a hawk when I looked at the middle photo. If you look long enough it starts to look like one of them War Ships in the Star Trek movies. I really like the look of it. Great job. WINDY
  3. Steve, If you would have eaten at my place (Windy's) last night you would have had Ribs with stimulating conversation, with no mention of the sewing machine war. I am sure you would have enjoyed it more than eating at any hamburger joint. WINDY

    And what a fine job. Looks real nice. WINDY
  5. Kate, I heated up a 3D stamp once with a torch and it started to melt. You think maybe I left the flame to it, a wee bit longer than I should have.Lesson learned about heating up cheap pot metal. I left my paint scraper that I use for cleaning my grill too close to the coals once. Only once since it melted the entire end of the scraper into globs of nice gray metal. I guess someone is telling me I should take up blacksmithing. WINDY..........not a blacksmith that I know of.

  7. A few years ago there was a smart guy who had a great idea. He printed a newspaper on his computer printer. He was the only subscriber. He then got the local paper and got the addresses of all the businesses ,that ran classified ads,he could and printed the same ad in his paper. Then he billed the businesses for running their ad in his paper. Not surprising he made a ton of money afore someone discovered what he was doing. Another good one is the company who prints posters telling employees their rights. They send me a letter every year telling me how it is illegal not posting this poster.Fos a small fee they will mail the poster that brings me up to par with the law that will put me in the hoosecow if I do not conform.The return address sounds like it is a state agency. However upon close inspection one finds it is a private company scamming all the business people who have limited reading abilities. By the way I canceled my subscription to Mother Earth News two years ago. I was informed by mail last week that they wanted to keep me in good standing by renewing my subscription by mail afore it expired next month. They offered a great price , just the same I was not interested. Dang gone it if the phone did not ring the next day. Yep you guesses it , it was the Mother Earth News calling to let me know my subscription was about to expire and since I was such a good customer whom they hated to see miss an issue. They wanted to renew my subscription for , are you ready, for fifty percent more than the mail offer. WINDY....... Not really a conspiracy theorist.
  8. Billy, You may want to check out this page at Leather Unlimited. If you have plans on making them for a long time to come this may be a better option. http://leatherunltd.com/hardware/mallet_di...allet_dies.html WINDY
  9. I do believe he is a member of this here forum. Maybe look him up and ask him. WINDY
  10. Ray, This is my 75 Ford F-100 with the best motor Ford ever made the 300 straight six or inline as some say. It has extra springs donated from an old Chevy so I can haul more weight which one sometimes needs in the brick laying business.The glove box and the door handle covers are leather and I decorated them with our company logo , the skull and cross bones.The rear lights are also our company logo which I also made. As a matter of fact I spent four years in my spare time rebuilding the motor and the body work on this truck. When I brought it home from the job site it had holes in the floor boards I could crawl through. In place of the rear bumper I built a roll pan from the roof of an old Nissan. I never did the inside of the bed since it was built for work.Oh yea the license plate bolts have cast resin skulls that light up that I made while I was making the shift knob which is also cast resin and it lights up as well.I do not have photos of them for reasons I do not know. WINDY
  11. Beautiful case, Jack. Was a pleasure meeting you at the Derby City Classic. No matter how good the photography , it is nothing like seeing the beauty of your cases in person. WINDY
  12. Tony, How did you know which one I was talking about. WINDY
  13. You can get the spider concho from Tandy and one of their conversion kits for conchos to snaps and wa la you have a spider snap.Oh yea you need the snap too. WINDY
  14. My rotary cutter has a motor on it making it manly. WINDY
  15. Steve , You may not believe this but first job was filling a barn with pancakes. I was pretty lucky for two reasons. One it was a small barn and two there was a IHOP next door.You are right it takes a lot of pancakes to fill even a small barn and I do not even want to tell you how much maple syrup it took. WINDY
