  1. Bonnie that some really cool things. f course I love your wolf, and also the hair on hide cross. Cheryl
  2. Three pets do you still have this? If so I still want it. Cheryl
  3. Very pretty, with great tooling. Your paints need some shading though. Cheryl
  4. Beautiful work. You caught the era perfectly. However the jeans shouldn't have been 'skinny' but flared at the bottom. Perfect oh the hiphuggers, and your bag is also beautiful. Cheryl
  5. I enjoyed reading this because I hate to make wallet interiors. However, right here in the pinned tutorials at the top is a Kevin King tutorial on making a wallet and he covers the glued backs. Although I think he uses some kind of special card stock. Cheryl
  6. Hi Robin. I'm so sorry it took me so long to respond. I do want the press if the sipping is reasonable enough. My zip code is 45701 Thanks, Cheryl Oh crap that's not my zip code. Mine is 05701
  7. It could be yin, machines have a steep learning curve. I think the 26 is too big though, I really do. I use 24s with my 277 and it seems to work well. I get mine a pkg a time from cobra steve and he tells me what I need.
  8. Camano, you were a lot nicer than I was. I hope being direct will save his project. Maybe not but we tried. Cheryl
  9. Yin? who did you let talk you into 100.00 worth of needles and to change what the tecksew had in it already. Did it sew with that needle?
  10. Your 'roon looks oily on top which means the steel wool had oil in it and you're supposed to wash it out. Then you dump downy in it for that fresh soft feeling vinegaroon. THEN you run out and get peroxide to try and speed the process and have it done in one day? You are about to ruin a trench coat. I've been using vinegaroon for 3 years and never heard of using peroxide. You also didn't say what kind of leather and if it's not undyed veg tanned you're about to ruin a trench coat. If you don't give the 'roon time to work you're going to ruin a trench coat? I repeated myself because you asked for help here but didn't listen to the suggestions. So when you ruin a trench coat (4th time) please don't come back here and say we steered you wrong. Chryl
  11. Hi Threepets, I live in VT. Do you still have this clicker press and are you willing to ship it? Thanks, Cheryl
  12. I know what you're talking about but don't know what it's called, sorry.. Cheryl
  13. I don't see any difference in this than any other hair on hides we use? I say good on her for using an otherwise wasted resource It does make me wonder about whether the hawks and buzzards are getting enough to eat. I've seen hawks swoop down on a freshly hit animal and of course buzzards, as nuch as the turn my stomach, do have a place here in this world. But she says the amount of road kill is enormous so that shouldn't be a problem.
  14. As difficult as most of us find setting snaps, I'd get this best quality you can find. I had the same problem when I started of none snapping snaps. Practice cured this plus watching a youtube video on them over and over. Cheryl
  15. The one with the most toys wins right? How about the one with the most people. Spent NY Eve in NYC right at Madison Square Gardens with a gazillion of my closest friends. Damn shame I was too tired to enjoy it. Happy NY to you all.

  16. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all the wonderful people I know here, and the wonderful people I haven't met yet :)

  17. Slick, that's hilarious, not that I'm glad it had to be remade, but it's really funny.
  18. Randi, she can just SIT and shed, LOL. Fortunately she's not into chewing the leather except about 6 years ago she chewed the top off of my LL Bean boot. I was most annoyed. Grey Drakkon I seem to need to keep learning that lesson. And David I totally agree with you. But there is still that nagging urge to tweak the plan And Silverbullet I am really happy you have a great Tandy store. Cheryl
  19. I'll admit I'm torn on this issue. And I'll also admit I'm a hypocrite. I don't mind using the reptile skins at all but the mammals still give me a twinge when I order them. I didn't see this until today so I probably would have been buying from them in the past. Now it seems like the only purpose to buy it would be to moo about myself and what a good person I am. I honestly am a good person but I also love working with leather. Odd I won't use elephant and SLC knows not to send it to me in my exotic packs. But that a whole different story....Cheryl
  20. LOL, Randi, good idea. I have a dog that provides all the hair on whether I want it or not. She can just look at a project and it has hair on it.
  21. Of course all that's the fun stuff and why we do it!! Cheryl
