I have one, and it serves me well.

" Food so good your tongue will knock your brains out." Amen to that!It's actually in East Earl. Tried to stop by Smucker's, but they close so dang early.

Hey! Some of those products look familiar! Way to go, Kevin.

Hmmm... that's as close to where I live that I've seen....

I go to the Allentown store too, and you're right, Jeff's great. We make a day of it either way, Harrisburg and Bass Pro Shops, or Allentown and Cabela's, and with either, Dinner at Shady Maple Smorgasbord...yum yum....lol

I'll have to say Chris Hatter, manager of the Harrisburg, PA TLF. When I was getting started, I used to order direct from Tandy's web site, which would then be faxed to Harrisburg, since at that time it was the closest store. Chris called me and told me just to call her and I'd get my orders alot faster. So we built a phone relation, since she's a 2 1/2 hour drive away. I've driven out there probably 6 times in the last 4 years, and ever since the first visit, she's recognized and welcomed me. Always cheerful, always helpful. So yup, Chris Hatter gets my vote.

I just got thier sample card, and the colors are very nice: http://www.royalwoodltd.com/cat14-17ar.htm

I'm imagining my wife's reaction when I hang a side on the clothesline and start draggin' the compressor from the shed.....

I get, and like the birds. I used to see them tattooed on the old salt bosun's mates when I was in Uncle Sam's canoe club.

No, Jerry, I cut all my pieces first, then dye. I think dying the whole side will tie up alot of leather, are you making something specific?

I for one love W&C's leather. I just got 2 #3 sides from them at $90 each, and it's nicer that some of the #1 stuff I've gotten elsewhere. Have you tried slicking your leather after casing, Madmax?

Tina, what did you use for your colors? The white looks very clean, is it acrylic? The person who received that is lucky indeed.

Looks great so far.

I'm waitin' on a response from Pineyboy.......

Good looking stuff, Chain. I notice you're from PA, where abouts?

Vince, I do this alot on purse straps. Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy. It's getting the hang of it that's frustrating. Keep trying, and juuuust when you're ready throw it at the wall, it'll fall into place.

It's called a mystery weave, Vince. Google it and you'll find tons of tutorials.

Awesome as usual, Tina

Beautiful carving, Gesa

Johanna, that is Pittsburg, PA without the H, even on the postmark.

Wow, Ian. And I thought MY life had become tame! LOL

Dude, you're out of control. That's too cool!

That's amazing
