That could be deer? It looks pretty supple. Does it have any marks on the back? Any measurements or stickers?

Occasionally we get blasted by bots and crawlers. I can kick everyone offline, but leave the members alone. I hesitate to do it because I'm going to catch legit traffic of people who simply aren't logged in. I don't care about the web crawlers, but i don't want to inconvenience real people.

How can I encourage members to log in while they are viewing the forum? I can make the threads "members only" but that would wipe out our Google search referrals. If anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them! Thanks

I think I figured this out. If anyone is still having slowdowns or glitches, let me know. It should be good everywhere now. ~J

Glad you're back at it, Mike. Love that burnished edge. It's fused. Sheath looks sharp.

Hi @MagnusOpus I'm interested in your project. I've spent 20 years trying to archive info for new and experienced leatherworkers. Let's talk and see if we can help each other. ~J

The IFoLG is The International Federation of Leather Guilds. Guilds that opt to join pay a membership fee to the IFoLG. One of the guilds hosts a show every fall. You can be a member of a leather guild, but only a leather guild can be a member of the IFoLG. Hope that clarifies things.

The site went down at 6:30 last night when the host did some kind of update they were very vague about. I spent the day talking to AI and people who don't speak American English and finally got a ticket escalated around noon. Every time we'd reboot, the sites would work for a couple of minutes until something killed the connection. I think it's sorted now, and I am waiting for the patronizing email I'll be getting about the resolution. I'll keep you posted.

I put it back, do you see it?

There is no lifetime limit, and the upload limits are pretty broad. Post away!
