  4. Work look great to answer your question, You are in the business of custom work. You insist that it is constructed well, correctly and is durable. , But the art work, Do what they want, and keep your mouth shut I am a plumber by trade, I had a lady pay me to install a Kohler wild rose fixtures with polished brass fittings, Makes me want to puke every time i think about it
  5. In order to insert the steel band into a belt so that the belt is not damaged, use a belt sander to round the ends of the band Then glue the band into the center of a 1 1/2'' belt. I have never inserted a band into anything smaller than 1 1 /2''.. drill a hole in the ends of the band and rivet the band to the center of the belt. the band will not move and cut the threads.
  6. I use the steel 3/4'''' strap that is used to strap pallets. I make my belts 1 1/2'' wide, The strap does not move and cut my stitches.

  19. You dont. toss that awl out the window. Here is 3 pieces of 9oz veg tan. run a stitch grove on each piece using your chisel. hang one tine off the leather as shown, this will ensure you are starting out at the same spot on each piece of leather glue your peices As you glue the pieces. insert a needle every couple of inches, this will help you keep everything lined up . then sew them. all pieces are lined up if you did it correctly

    You are or are not aware that was a joke? Yeah man, Dr Fauci Said it is safe to remove your mask to eat in a restaurant. He is a scientist is he not? My conjecture has just been backed up So now we use a little common sense. He says that you must wear your mask when entering a restaurant, But it is safe to not wear a mask to eat. The only difference between the 2 events mentioned above. Is the elevation of your respiratory system as it takes in oxygen. And the elevation of your eyes. we have a scientist that is saying a seated position is safe from contacting covid. This is an undisputed FACT. Because fauci said it. Now lets look at this evevation thing a little closer. Children seem to be immune to covid, Children are usually under 4' 2 plus 2 is equaling four.
