you should really think about a cargo container. they are very sturdy and waterproof(if they haven't been damaged. they are also easy to secure.

my membership renewal forms arrived from tandy last week. due to poor service, raised prices, and constant shipping problems after 5+ years of membership, I will not be renewing my membership again. hell, they don't even give the 'free tool' anymore. I'm so pissed with their corporate greed, I doubt I'd even accept a FREE membership.

pretty nice. I need to make one for .308WIN stripper clips.

I like it. how is it worn?

I own a tandy craftaid for wallets. it has maple leaves on it. you can find it here. http://www.tandyleatherfactory.ca/en-cad/home/department/leather-craft-patterns/76579-00.aspx

how does one start a leatherworking guild? where do I start?

I've been a tandy customer for about 4 years with gold membership. as a beginner I had to start somewhere, and there weren't any local stores. in those 4years, I have noticed that: 1. their prices have gone up. 2. their service has gone down. 3. their membership/flyer "freebies" have disappeared (what happened to the free stamp coupon??). 4. after 4 years, I've also noticed that their flyers are pretty much the same(other than the higher prices and added steampunk); yes, I still own the last 4 years of catalogs and flyers. i think i won't be renewing membership this year. sorry tandy, you lost my business...

I used to really like tandy but lately, with their price changes I have lost faith in them. hell, they don't even give free tools to their gold members anymore. I have had some pretty bad shipping problems with them in the past. i will NOT be renewing my gold membership again, as I am not really interested in their pattern library... for the price of their membership, I think I will be shopping elsewhere in the future.

in the past I have also thought of painting my stamp handle ends different colors to differentiate what series they are.

thank you for your hard work and generosity! i'm always looking for new patterns.

what about shipping to canada? my zip is V1P1J9. thanks.

nice bench! wish mine was that nice... i just use my kitchen table... lol.

this is the reason i have not bought a machine yet. shipping and customs charges into canada is prohibitive.

i bout my letter stamp set from tandy while on sale. i'm pretty happy with them. they do thier job.

i think i bought a complete set of hole punches from my local hardware store for around $20. ive had them for about 3 years, and they work fine.
