TwinOaks Report post Posted October 29, 2010 Welcome, Lee, it's good to have you with us. If there's any specific things you'd like to learn about leather, just ask, as we'll be happy to answer. You sound a lot like my grand father when you said "I don't usually have much to say". ....of course, that means it's usually worth while to listen when you do say something. Thanks for joining up with Leatherworker.net, and welcome to the family. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TwinOaks Report post Posted October 30, 2010 Actually, I'm over that way quite a bit. My work route is from Hattiesburg/Laurel down to the coast- Waveland to Pascagula. I'm in Waveland at least once a month to work on the McDonalds at 90 and 603.....might just have to take a slightly long lunch and stop in to visit. I'll let you know when I'm headed back that way.

BondoBobCustomSaddles Report post Posted October 30, 2010 Welcome to the family Lee! You will find quite a few Vets on here also. Make sure the VA does everything for you they can, They won't if you don't ask. I know from experience. Anyway, leatherwork is easy on the mind, and helps ease the soul. Good Tooling, and don't hesitate if you need help, there are lots here that will be glad to "tell you how she got done". Bob Buono Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
