  1. Man, if it isnt one thing, it's another....

  2. Had to take a break - the power went out for about 24 hours... bad timming and no back up generator, no lights. A person sure gets used to using electrivity, but I kinda enjoyed the quiet...

  3. Did you notice it was 12/12/12 today

  6. Got the key fob die on Saturday, that I ordered on Monday. Happy camper here.....

  7. FYI - I am working on my Leatherwork Web site, but this is the last page of my cleaning service website - it's pretty cute http://home.mindspring.com/~ampmservices/id10.html

  8. They are doing it again - 2 owls calling to each other and it sounds Soooooo cool! Early in the morning, cold and clear with a full moon.

  9. There were 2 owls calling to each other and it sounds soooooo cool! Early in the morning, cold and clear with a full moon coming in 2 days... Does the Full moon make you want to hoot or howl?

  10. No chance of a sun tan today!

      I wonder if a sun lamp would work.

      Actually, I was just complaining about all the rain we have had this week... I like the feel of sun on my skin too :) I'll just wait for the sun to come out again to tan my leather.

      Sylvia

      yeah we've had some dark heavy clouds here too.

  11. Time to start making Christmas ornaments... Can't wait for the last minute, if you want to have them ready to sell.

      sitting here cutting out holly leaves from some green embossed leather just made for these. Going to put red wooden bead berries on them. Next, round ornaments from veg tanned or maybe even a sled, who knows? You're right Cheryl, the time is now. Cheryl

      Yes, your comment on Christmas ornament hooks being up already, inspired me, reminded me to get going on them. Thanks Cheryl.

  12. I know this is an old post, but I really like the ‘Wrinkled’ look of the leather – and he explains how to do it… http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=3597

  13. OK, just how old does something have to be - to be called Vintage?

    1. LNLeather

      LNLeather

      Yeah, that was what sparked the question... I see some newly made leatherwork on ebay labeled as Vintage... the Vintage is 2012 - so buyer beware.

    2. David

      Vintage? It's gotta be older than me.

      That's funny - Really! I feel that way too ;)

      You might not say that if you had to deal with the British postal service... lol!

      I don't suppose that was supposed to be funny :) but it made me laugh

  18. I just got a job from someone that found me by reading my profile here! Thanks Sooooo Much LW!

  19. WOW, this is fun trying out all the new bits - Love this color too!

      What do you think so far? I hope everyone lets me know what they like and what they don't like. I'm trying to fix it so that everyone can use the board their own way.

      I sure am glad we are back to 10 RSU!

      Thanks for everything Johanna

  20. Guess I need to remember - If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over your head and a place to sleep, you are richer than 75 percent of the world.

  21. Amazon keeps shipping pkgs by FedEx Smartpost. While ordering “FedEx” requires my physical address – then the pkg sits in Seattle for 3 to 5 days

    1. LNLeather

      LNLeather

      back the pkg go’s to the Vashon Post Office and they either try to charge me (which I refuse to do) extra $ to deliver the package to my PO Box (which is in the same building) that was supposed to have Free Shipping, or they return the package due to an incorrect address. I used to be able to receive packages in 2 or 3 days from Amazon and now it takes 2 – 3 weeks and a lot of wasted handling. My packages ride the Ferry more than I do.

    2. Sylvia

      File complaint(s) with Federal Express and Amazon and the postal service. Clearly there is a break down with the agreement between these 3. If they get enough complaints... maybe it will get fixed.

    3. LNLeather

      LNLeather

      I have explained All this to Amazon - Every time it happens. The Post office here is Fed Up with Fed ex... Fedex is saving way too much $$ to listen to me... :)

  22. Tippmann is making some cutting dies for me and the price is right + they will have them out to me in a week. Woohoo

    1. RMB Custom Leather

      RMB Custom Leather

      How much? Texas Dies has been the cheapest. I may have to see what tippmann can do.

    2. LNLeather

      I have a Tippmann Clicker and always buy my dies from them… I am also sending in a well used die for sharpening for n/c. I suppose it is probably best to email dimensions for a quote. They do have Real solid construction

  23. Technology is amazing, the receiver for my new mouse is slightly bigger than my thumb nail… Its like magic.
