  3. I like the Idea but, i have a concern. I smoke cigars and i would rather have a flap instead of a cap other than my preference which should not hold any weight. I think you are doing a fine job.

  6. My opinion of a bench is a 4' [1.21m] x 8' [2.43m] in size with Lift/lock casters this allows the bench to be moved about the room on wheels then it sets down in position You need 4 separate work stations Cutting gluing with overhead exhaust hood stain sewing /machine/hand DIY FOLDING WALL MOUNTED WORKBENCH - YouTube
  7. the legality is all in the wording These are Tire thumpers, used to check air pressure in tires, they are legal to carry in your pocket {I would caution you to have a vehicle near by} These are saps, brain bashers, weapons, ETC. They are illegal to possess or carry on your person
  8. I like that. and YES the exchange actually did happen People think we are selling cheap wally world crap. and we have to think of intelligent non ranting ways to get our point across. UNknown to me a couple heard that exchange and he bought a belt while making a joke of not asking the price
  9. Tip put it in the freezer for 1/2 hour. it makes rolling it up easier and the meat does not pull apart
  10. That is the question i was asked 2 days ago at a Spring fling Fair So i gave the guy a price. he quickly told me that was to high and countered with a REALLY LOW price of $20.00 Instead of being insulted and going on a rant with this guy. I grinned and said YES SIR, i reached in a tote and pulled out a dyed belt blank. No holes no buckle and handed it to him. He looked at me and asked ''what is this?" I said it is a $20.00 dollar belt. Then I added, if you want me to cut it to length and add a buckle/snaps and holes that will be extra. he put the belt down on the table and walked off. I got a huge laugh out of the exchange.
  11. They cause millions in damage and they kill live stock. I have friends who kill them as a business Hi tech night vision on drones and they use AR's mostly
  12. I'll share one of my favorite recipes with you this called ''smoking a fatty'' 2 pounds ground sausage. rolled out cover it with what ever you wish roll it up, cover with bacon and place in your smoke at 200 degrees till done if you do not have a smoker it can be cooked on a grill or in an oven
  13. MMMMMM home canned bread and butter? my FAVORITE Handstitched the bacon steaks come from this store.
  14. It is Chucks fault. I have been craving fish all day yesterday
  15. I am not a pro, this is just an opinion from what I have seen Depends is my answer. depends on the stitch length. because a fabric needle cuts leather and a leather needle separates fibers you do not want the holes in the leather close together. So i think a wide stitch length would be oK [ using a sharp needle] a tight stitch length would weaken the leather making the pocket venerable to be ripped off.
  16. Dang. you got me on a food roll !!!! Atomic buffalo turds {stuffed jalapeno wrapped in bacon} jalapeno, cream cheese,[cheese of choice] diced scallions, lipton onion soup mix, , bacon
  17. Bacon steaks
  18. Mudbugs, Love em. Did you know that when i was a kid, No one ate mudbugs. we used them as cat fish bait. Then some FOO FOO french chief introduced them as a delicacy on the food channel or bourbon street and all of a sudden they were the next hot thing to eat, I still use them as catfish bait. Brea bridge Louisiana has a crawfish festival every may.

    card holder

    sorry so late getting back. hauled a lot of 2x12's and 2x10's today. it has a slot that is on the outside [top left bottom left] [bottom right] is the holder open you are looking at the inside, the outside slot is behind the id pocket yes. it is 1/2'' thick with cards inside 3/4' oz chrome tan bag leather not suede. I am running into a lot of people that do not want a traditional wallet with money pocket , they want small card holders, with a clip for folded cash as an option anything for a buck, you need a belt? LOL

  23. Start ut by marking your stitch line on ever piece of leather you will stitch After it is marked, start your chisel in the exact same spot on each piece. I used to surf in my younger days, I would ''hang ten' that means i would hang ten toes over the edge of the board. Hang one, hang the first prong of your chisel over the edge of the leather, If you do this on each piece your chisel prongs will be mathematically lined up I always stitch right to left. and the first needle threw the hole is the top needle down, then pull the thread to the left, bottom needle up to the right/front of the thread you are pulling out of the way. then top needle down, Your hole is slotted. top needle down on the rear of the slot. pull to the left. bottom needle up on the front of the slot. DO THIS EVERY time in the same order If you switch up and top needle down on the FRONT of the slot your stitch line will show it like a neon light start your stitching going left to righty top needle down on the left/rear of the slot. bottom needle up on the front/right of slot. REPEAT exactly
