  1. Threads may have changed but Stohlmans techniques are still spot on, everyday almost questions are asked here that are covered many times in his writings. You can get more of his stuff free on the tandy site. https://www.leathercraftlibrary.com/category/79/ebooks?pagenum=1
  2. ditto and if your worried about mold throw in some desicant pouches.
  3. https://www.leevalley.com/en-us/shop/tools/hand-tools/spokeshaves I have no idea really but i would think the only dif would be blade shape maybe from wood to leather but here is a place that sells them and different blade shapes.
  4. Just a few photos to show off my lil part of the world and help with my spring fever. March and April are hard to get thru here the day looks beautiful till you walk out side then its still colder than he**. Post some nice summertime pics for every one to enjoy. Stewart was my inspiration!
  5. yup wood with tannins in it will blacken it some with little tannins it just adds an weathered grey look. Test first on some scrap to see if you like the outcome. you can also put a wash of tea on before to add some more tannins. i watched a cool episode on woodsmith shop where they used roon to stain a box but i cant seem to find it now.
  6. Man your getting good at this stuff ! Those look great.
  7. Hope this helps https://favoredleather.com/leather-plough-gauge/
  8. i look at your stuff three or four times a day at least. I am inspired every time. My fishin memories are from a small stream in the mountains full of Brookies have went there with my family all my life every fourth of July but haven't seen one mermaid there.
  9. This would be simple but the cartridge's might fall out or get dirty . https://ads.midwayusa.com/product/1021269949?pid=588390&utm_medium=shopping&utm_source=bing&utm_campaign=Shooting+-+Range+Accessories&utm_content=588390&cm_mmc=pf_ci_bing-_-Shooting+-+Range+Accessories-_-Hunter-_-588390&msclkid=557099b748881a51ee06f9f7a98f7426&utm_term=1101131606244 I prefer one of these, i have used one for years hunting and my ammo stays nice and clean dry and ready to use, mine just has 5 shells in the bottom flap that falls down and out of the way of the flap for easy access. .https://www.midwayusa.com/product/101381603?pid=154219

  12. I think its a great idea go for it That looks like a good easily buildable frame design.
  13. really nice work! I,ve laid one down and slid about 50 feet its not fun i spent ten minutes picking up everything out of the pockets that shredded along with my pants so i know where you are coming from there.
  14. I always thought vinegar was used because it eats up the iron quickly. I use it first on any rusted metals before buying store bought chemicals. Might have to try just water but i think it would take forever and a day to dissolve enough iron. Do you use your iron sulphate in water?
  15. Yup an air lock because you don't want wild yeasts from the air to spoil your wine. it would do no real good for roon.
  16. Beautiful bag!!! The Chicago Bears have played over 1,000 games in their history, and have had eight NFL Championships victories and one Super Bowl win. The Bears' nine championships are the second most by any team in NFL history. The franchise has captured 18 NFL divisional titles and four NFL conference championships. I used to be a bears fan.

  18. Doh yup your right it may be kinda stiff. She could always make a stool lol.
