  1. I got a lot of really good tips after I made my first set of chaps. If you look at this thread: There are a lot of good suggestions, from how to orient the patterns to get the least amount of wrinkles, to video suggestions etc. Have fun making them. Brgds Jonas
  2. The closest from the top of my head would be a hydraulic oil like Castrol AWH32 or something similar with a viscosity of 32 cSt. But I know it isn't exactly what you asked for. Another alternative is synthetic lubricant for refrigeration compressors. Hanseline produces a fine sewing machine oil, it is made in Germany, and you can get it in 0.2 or 1L bottles (I don't know how much your machine needs). I have used it for my sewing machines and been very satisfied with the performance. Nadel24.de sells it for 2.98 Euro for a bottle of 0.2 L, I normally buy a bottle or two whenever I stock up on needles for the sewing machines. Grüsse aus Dänemark Jonas
  3. Antler and copper rivets look SO good in my opinion, and the size and shape of the blade seems to really complement the entire knife. Well done!!
  4. great looking bag. The Celtic braiding decoration looks really good. Brgds Jonas
  5. @BlackDragon I am looking forward to the result :-) I think those black ones on your picture look like they could be a winner. Brgds Jonas
  6. I like the brown layout better too :-) Like @AlZilla says, it looks kind of sterile now. And the brown look just felt so cozy :-) Brgds Jonas
  7. I like the pencil holder suggestion. If that one is too small, I guess one could make a bigger one out of either wood or leather. I'd cut some squares of waste leather, maybe 1.5" square. Punch a hole in the middle that corresponds to the size of the shaft of the stamp. Glue up a bunch of those and glue them to the stamp sort of on the middle of the shaft. The top of the stamp would still be left as it is to hit with the mallet. But there'd be a big leather grip to hold on to. The drawbacks would be that it takes time to make this for all the different stamps, and afterwards the stamps take up more space.
  8. My initial thought was FUDGE!!! Someone has hacked LW.net!!! and I started to curse and stuff. Then I looked at the screen and saw that it was still the well known categories and just the colours that have changed a bit
