Probably looks better too with something to space cartridges out with something in between . I may have to give that a try , and the " fingers " would send a message for sure ! LOL !

Some good questions . I notice no feel of added weight with the felt hats ( I tried it on 3 I have ) but there is a small difference with the open weave hats . It is not enough to bother me I don't think but time will tell for sure . It doesn't seem to lower the ride height on mine but others might wear different . All the hat bands I have made either are snap or blood knot (suede )connected .

That is quite nice ! Is the rope effect between the stich lines tooled ?

Thank you ! Thank you !

Looks dang nice to me !! Love the colors

LOL ! Those would may quite a unique hat band or pretty much anything else !! I can't wait to see

Wife says Thank you Thanks , everybody knows ware-possums ONLY live in Ark. mostly down on the White River Refuge with the Ivory Bill's

I must admit to not having read every post so if I am doubling up please forgive me . I would put them on a grinder with a fine stone , go slow and be sure to rest often for heat to leave. Try to match original angle but an even angle from heel to tip will do . The large trick to scissors is to put " set " in them by bending both legs slightly . A large percentage of dull scissors are not dull , they need re-setting .

Those are NICE !! and the revolvers ain't too shabby either !!!

We don't have any crocks around here buuuuuuuuuuuuut we do have possums ... hummmmm Thanks

Nicely done !! Hope the bidding is high

No Sir, way past my skill set . Tan summer hat is a cheap Stetson and the black winter hat is feed store hat , I don't even know who made it . Thanks Thank you !

Looks better on the black

and she may be right Got bored this morning and just had to do something .

Now that is an excellent idea !!!! Thank you It will more than likely be the story about " crazy old man " knowing my family

It always slips up on me so I am getting started early . Kin folks will be getting tree ornaments this year

Looks good !!! What was the steel from ?

Good idea , I have just done the standard " doohicky " for hair but I like this

It's different , not sure I could get the hang of it .

Block dying might work if you are going to dye the piece to begin with . With natural I don't know of anything but a brush and dye/paint .

Help yourself battlemunky !!!! I just got back from 6 month Doc visit and he grinned big and seemed to appreciate the coaster .

Thank you ! You will do fine , they have come a loooooooooong way with the hip surgery . Mine was out-patient , in @ 7:30 wife driving me home @ 5:00 . Again, you will do fine !!!! You might as well go ahead and carve a little something for your Doc

+ 1 best way for myself

Thank you and give my respects to your Dad , doctors and nurses are special people for sure ! Thank you ! The hip is a blessing and one of the better decisions that I have made in life !!!!!!!!!

but I made this coaster for my Doc who did a total hip on me back in Feb. Wrote a little note on the back " Thanks for the new parts Doc " It may well end up in the box with all the other junk he probably gets from patients .
