I like it. The sheath and the tools look great.

I for one like to read as many different tuts as possible. I think yuo can learn a little from each one.

I'll add the link for South Dakota for anyone that interested. http://www.artscouncil.sd.gov/grants/ Better get in quick, Gov Rounds is talking big budget cuts and arts will be one of them.

Wow superchute, someone in my neck of the woods. I was going to order the one from tandy, but with shipping, Duwayne's would be about the same price.

Thank you. I've been on the wrong end of poor packing before, and it sucks.

Forgive my ignorance, but what are "runes"? Never heard of these before. Mabye it will hit me once I know the answer.

Well, I'll add my .02. Check the farm and ranch store for scalpels and blades. I have a better chance of finding the farm store than a craft store in my area. Snag a free keyring anywhere you can. I can't see buying a bag of rings for my projects. I wanted a tracing box. What I found was a kids version at walmart. It was spideman or something. about $20. I saw them again at kmart the other day with Hannah Montana. And again, 2nd hand, thrift, slavation army type stores. You never know what you will find.

Very nice. I have the wood rack from Tandy, and its full. I am also looking into making my own.

Been a service tech at a Caterpillar dealer for 2 1/2 years. I have been pulling wrenchs for a living since 1990.

Found this and decided to share. http://tuffcase.com/shop/index.php?main_pa...ex&cPath=20

Do they have a website? Or a catalog?

Metric to standard, F to C. volumes and weights. Much more than I have ever used it for. I used it on chat the other night to convert Tom's temp in Sweden to F, so us US people could compare temps.

That looks great Ben. Great use of limited space.

Myself, i really don't have a dedicated place for my hobbies. We have an island in the kitchen. I set up on it to do my indoor hobbies. I have an old table leaf that I work off of and set my cutting board and slab/poundo on it. My light is an old flex lamp that is clamped to it. Plastic totes contain most of my supplies. Someday I'll take a pic for the other thread.

There are some great ideas in the thread that Clay linked above.

Those look great. So much better than the cheapo's at walmart.

A big Thank You to fatbackslim. The needles came today. Put them in and found that is does work....sorta. The bobbin thread is bunching up under the cloth. I may just need to make some adjustments. I didn't spend alot of time with it.

Here is a conversion program I use at work alot. Give it a try, maybe it will help you. Its a free download. http://joshmadison.com/article/convert-for-windows/

I think it is very nice work.

Happy New Year to all. Have fun and be safe tonight, and every night.

Sent you a message. Much appreciated, thanks again.

Hey from South Dakota. Interested in learning more about pack saddles.

Nice work. One more thing to add to my "looking for' list.

It must have had the wrong needle in th first place then. If I set the screw against the flat of the needle, the eye faces me with the long groove facing away from me. I'll call the Sewing Center as superchute suggested and see if they can get what I need. Thanks everyone, i'll let you know how it goes.

Well, the manual says it should. I will try feeding it through and see what happens. Speaking of needles, If I read it correctly, the eye of the needle should face the machine and not me. Does that make sense? The eye of my needle faces me. I bought a needle at walmart and it is the same. It as a singer #30030, style 2020, size 110/18. Would this cause it? I don't have a local supplier for the correct needle. I will have to order online.
