It's not only the streets that is way narrower, the parking lots too *Grrrrrr* (but I'm happy not to have to fill a truck up at the pump again ) I would think the gas prices is around the same in EU, around $1.80-2 / liter...1 gallon=3.8 liter. We have that vehical test once a year here in Sweden too....You have to pass to get the sticker.

Hej Trox oxh Bob (Trox...jag missade din fråga häromdagen, såg den inte förräns nu) Jag kan bara säga att jag själv använde kortet över telefonen (Visa) möjligen är dom så små att dom inte har tillgång till säkerhetsprylen online? För mig fungerade det alldeles utmärkt. UPS är mycket dyrare i frakt, försök få honom att använda USPS (posten) I USA är det mycket vanligare att använda kortet för köp via internet till höger och vänster, jag har nog blivit lite Amerikaniserad där och min oro är inte så stor längre. Klart är att man ska använda sitt sunda förnuft:-) Jag fick oxo layouten skickad som PDF och jag gjorde lite ändringar som han fixade till. I mitt tycke var firman mer än helt OK.

Maker's Mark Stamp
Tina replied to gregintenn's topic in Gun Holsters, Rifle Slings and Knife Sheathes
I have a super nice one in steel for $35 from this place, a very helpful and friendly place: http://www.phillipsengraving.com/Leather_Stamps.html -
Lite fusk, vi bodde i USA tills i höstas så jag köpte den innan vi kom över hit till Sverige igen... Skriv en rad och fråga, han var mycket enkel att ha att göra med. Med "First-Class Mail® International Package" (USPS=Amerikanska posten), ca $10 till Sverige enligt postens hemsida (www.usps.com) Lycka till:-)

This is true in some countries (mine included) Here I don't have to apply for my art, I have the soul copyright from the minute it's created by law. I know there is more countries like this, maybe Canada too where the above website owner lives? I remeber reading something about copyright and ancient symbols some time ago...Someone lost a copyright battle due to that old symbols is too old to get a new copyright on and/or belongs to everyone??? I will have to try and find this one again to be real sure but it was something to that effect.

Start Of A Purse?
Tina replied to Jannicke's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Mama might know something about the pattern:-) It comes from the Hylestad church in Norway, dated around 1175 AD. I have used several of the patterns on that church, more pictures is coming shortly. -
Hej Ulf och varmt välkommen till LW:-) Jag är bara en av en bunt svenskar som lurkar runt här på forumet, jag är säker på att du kommer hitta fler och du kommer gilla denna vänliga plats i cyberrymden:-)

Hi Clay:-) To keep sanity I just HAD to get something going, I had leatherbug withdrawls BigTime and I was getting grumphier by the minute *LOL* I do like to teach, it's very satisfying when you see someone "get's it" and I'm soo happy that you like her tooling, I guess somethings does run in the family:-)
-
yeah...I'm alreaddy seeing my tools "walking" down the stairs *LOL* (for the time being we do live in the same building) I'm just a proud mom, she's doing so great and with just little hints from me and all the tools she could need, I wish I had it all when I started out *LOL* The number one tip is: Use the modeling tool the most:-) True about the time, it's been soooo boring not being able to create, I neeeeed it. Anyways now we're working in team and hopefully we have enough stuff to attend a viking fair in August, all dressed up. Storm, to me your translations did not look as the ones my hubby makes with the google translater, they where "to much right" and it felt like you actually did this yourself:-) Jag har haft engelska språket runt om mig större delen av mitt liv och förstår kanske 99%, bara min gramatik är hemsk men det är den på svenska med, speciellt i skrift. Så, om jag är mer bekväm i svenska? Jag vet inte, jag kan till och med gräla riktigt bra på engelska med *LMAO*

Ladys and adges you know *S* lets just say under 30 :-) I HAVE to ask...How many languages do you speak??? I have seen you use several??? (=Impressed!) The idea have come to mind, maybe the nem webpage (coming shortly) ends up being a family hobby page

Millions of Thanks all, I will for sure show her this:-)...I'm going to try convince her to become a member here herself.

Of course I could not stop totally to have some leather sround me, a few weeks ago I did get some leather and tools out of the storage and made me a small workspace (very small indead) Anyways, some of my family members started to get real nosy and eventually my daughter Jannicke said she just had to try it out. So after some guidance (and I did do all the swivelcarving, she ain't there yet *S* she made a small trial bookmark...I thought she did good enough so I decided to challenge her with this maple pattern. Just some words, hints and small tips and this is what came out: (I do have other family members standing inline to learn, this is loads of fun *S*)
