Sprocket Report post Posted April 12 Hi Folks - I've been lurking around a while and thought it time to get a little more formal. You can consider me a hobby-ist and n00b - I got started because my dog needed a collar fixed - and a great friend needed a dog lead and it went off from there. My projects are mostly belt-like and pouches - some braiding for decorative binding - pretty simple stuff really. Thanks for all the resources and answers to my questions - I've been surfing here pretty hard trying to get solutions to my issues and so far I've learned a ton and stayed out of trouble I didn't know I was headed towards... And saved some $$$ not buying tools, spent some $$ buying the right tools and all around enjoying this new hobby thing. I'm gonna try not to ask too many dumb questions but bear with me - Thanks Sprocket Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doc Reaper Report post Posted April 12 Hobbyists my sweet patootie! You by a tool here, you buy a tool there. Then you're buying tools to improve the tools ya already have. Next you're tooling tools to make your tools better tools. You are hooked but you haven't admitted it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
