Anyone here from Eastern Canada or where ring or harp seals are harvested? Looking for a pair of either tanned or untanned hides to make a pair of mukluks and mittens. God bless, Mike

Does anyone have a copy for sale, or know where one is hiding, for sale? God bless, Mike

Bring it on!! I'm pretty sure folks know where leather comes from, but might be interested in the process. It's like the folks who think meat comes from the back room at the supermarket! I actually witnessed that once..... A big drunk farmer friend (6'5") gave them.....and most of the store, a lesson on where meat, eggs and milk come from. The egg part was the funniest... quite descriptive. You might try mukluks with the other leg joints. God bless

Both 9/16"-24tpi and 5/8"-24tpi are extra fine threads. I'd sure go coarser, like 5/8"-18 given the chance. From the looks of things, if you extend the threads to their 60 degree peak, it was originally a 5/8" diameter thread. If you have a buddy with a lathe he can fix you up. Recutting the existing mess will require going down in thread diameter a bit. I don't believe those threads will clean up. If you run into trouble, PM me. God bless

I know the feeling...... God bless Keep that stupid cold air out there, please. We were 67 today, looking for a high of 36 tomorrow..... and then it gets cold. Rats, was hoping for a nice sunny, warm, deer season.

Folks are cone shaped above the hip bones, so a curved belt fits snugly. A straight belt at first only hits on the bottom, loose on the top edge. It will stretch to fit in time but why not make it properly to start with. I learned about the 'cone' shape at Duhamel's in Rapid City......whole racks of tooled belts and they all had a curve. The saddle maker upstairs showed me how he started on a side, cutting out a nice chunk of curve that was the scrap.....then the rest were good belts. Tandy's was just down the block, so my leather fix was easily done. Damn, that was almost 60 years ago..... :((( God bless

Yup, I'll just charge a few! I saw that and about croaked.......damn. I have a silversmith/goldsmith friend in Calistoga, CA who makes some pricey stuff too. God bless Don't forget the early morning full eclipse of the moon.

Ebay it is....found what I think I need. Thank you!! Chuck, pricey is an understatement

I'm looking for an early style Ranger buckle set and everything I find is quite modern looking. Any ideas?

South, how much play is too much? My 29-4 has between 0.025" and 0.030" play all around the whole handwheel rotation. God bless

Maybe that's why Latigo is used for saddle strings, rather than veg tan :)) Skirting is NOT strong stuff, compared to others. God bless

Either chrome tanned or alum tanned are best lace materials... We used to sell both for hiking/work/climbing boots. Of course, nylon or synthetics outsold leather for durability and strength. God bless

Flea Bay has a number of sets of nut cracker and picks. There are also several mentions of 'seafood picks'...... and lobster crackers. We don't have a whole bunch of Lobsters in Wis, so I missed that one. Here are two of many:

For eating really little pickles!

Thanks, the tang photo shows most of what I needed. How is the butt secured to the tang? I used to peen the heck out of the tang to fill a taper filed in the butt. God bless

Great work, as usual. Did you happen to photograph the tang of the knife before adding the handle materials? God bless

Are these the guys? I wonder how real the Ebony is??

Rather than duct tape, two or three pairs of latex gloves, wet the piggie skin and then do some work with the gloves on until they are dry. Same as the old boot break in with damp/wet boots.

What looks like a dark groove in photo Nr. 1......is that groove worn in there since purchase or is it designed in? It 'looks' like that worn area and its mating surface might have seized up or at least had very high friction loading. Looks like some shrinkage cavities in the dark area. Did the needle survive?

Were getting 3" of that 'stuff' over the next 36 hours.......

Dwight, My first thought, and a laugh, too. I've 'hand stitched' myself a few times. Dental floss, a needle and needle nosed pliers...

I copied this from an old woodworking hand tool group I frequent. Any ideas what this is? " Just created a Flickr album showing a front and side view of a mystery ( presumably ) leatherworking tool. The business end looks like it would cut a narrow square-sided groove. The purpose of the offsets, and the adjustable brass parts, is a total mystery. What was this tool used for?" God bless, Mike Rock

Stewart, Missed you during your time of loss. Glad to see you up and running... Sunflowers are always a happy flower. God Bless Mike

Great work! And workmanship. What weight is the money belt material? God Bless
