HS *Dumb Question Dept. : do 'rattlers' still rattle after their dead? yes! they have muscle movement for quite a while. It is practice, around here anyway, to cut off their head and bury it so an animal or person doesn't get bit by it. It will bite and release its venom for a long time without being attached. Quote

They did use them in rituals but a person cant shake them fast enough to rattle believe me I've tried. The older the snake the more buttons on the tail, they are added every time the snake sheds it skin. Quote

Sorry Frodo, gone off topic again here. So , in 'Two Mules For Sister Sara', Clint Eastwood & Shirley MacLaine, that would be true. Always wondered about that. Thanks. Tastes like chicken too I guess. The pattern on the holster ( bottom pic) , would have been just difficult as basket weave & tri weave ,and making your eyes go 'cross eyed' Quite like it. HS Quote

HS no such thing as off topic. conversation is the exchanging of thoughts and ideas While in gauged in a conversation the tide of topics tends to follow its own path as ideas are exchanged. If the original topic was an interesting topic to begin with the conversation will eventually come back to that topic off topic does not exist it is a made up term Quote
CFM Frodo Posted April 28, 2023 Author CFM Report Posted April 28, 2023 I screwed this one up with the stitching The sewing machine and I were not getting alone Quote

Contributing Member fredk Posted April 28, 2023 Contributing Member Report Posted April 28, 2023 All the holsters look very fine indeedy What are you putting on them to get such a high gloss which is showing in the photos With respect; are you tending to rush finishing these? they seem to have a little look of a rushed end to the job Quote

They look more tasty than chicken nuggets . While the holster looks great, ' Judgement' has an ' E' in it , sorry to point that out. HS Quote
