Cheryl, I have two cats that help make everything a hair on project. One is into helping and stealing my leather pieces.

That every project is a learning experience

no matter how many times I've done something

I ask my self am I happy with the results,,, or should I done this before that

or why I should Not CHANGE a solid plan,,,, but what about?????

Can I do it better next time,,,,,, my $0.02 and way overvalued

Randi, she can just SIT and shed, LOL. Fortunately she's not into chewing the leather except about 6 years ago she chewed the top off of my LL Bean boot. I was most annoyed. Grey Drakkon I seem to need to keep learning that lesson. And David I totally agree with you. But there is still that nagging urge to tweak the plan And Silverbullet I am really happy you have a great Tandy store. Cheryl

DoubleC, I had years to get it hammered into my head when in art classes, and when learning chinese calliraphy, and when mixing glazes for ceramics, and hell, when baking in the kitchen. Be aware at all times where the open container is, because you WILL spill it across essential items, or at the very least end up dunking your clothes in it. Didn't stick with me the other night though!

This wasn't actually last week, but it's one I never forget now. When you are putting a name on an item, or otherwise personalizing it.....make triple darn sure that you have it right! That mistake is real embarassing when the item is for a relative!

Slick, that's hilarious, not that I'm glad it had to be remade, but it's really funny.
