We are very pleased to meet you. Bespoke shoes are one of the most fascinating expressions of leatherwork, and technically complicated. Yours look outstanding. Please tell us more. Bardzo dobry ~J

@Northmount You have unselfishly helped lots of people over the years. If I could figure out how to put a gold crown over your name, I would.

This is exciting! Marked on the calendar! ((hugs)) Randy

@bruce johnson is the man to ask about the older tools. We're gonna waive the price rules until we have further conversation so we can get this man's tools into appreciative hands for a fair price.

It looks like the particular topic you linked was transferred into the Sewing Machine Forum by Northmount at about 8:30 pm, because he thought it would get more specific attention from you sewing machine experts there.

It's like the old time infomercials in the middle of the night. "But wait! We can sell you a new magic database tool for a gazillion dollars, that may or may not work any better than what you've got! Call Ronco now and save 15%!" Follow Tom's advice to search the site by Google.

I just searched "awl" and got nothing. I wonder if there is a setting somewhere for the online search function? Friquant has me off to the races again. Thanks for the heads up.

Two minutes.

For you, I will hunt down the setting and see if we can go lower. ha ha

There's an auto timer that merges posts made back to back. I think it's at 3 minutes? I'll have to check. It's to prevent clutter, from the old days when we had dial up connections and got interrupted, I suppose. Maybe tag each person you're replying to if it's in the same thread?

You're welcome!

I'd have to enable "can post html" for the member group, which looks like a huge security issue. I have it enabled for the mods and contributing members because they are unlikely to do malicious things with HTML. I can put you in that group if you promise not to break anything. hahahaha
