jkbuzbee Report post Posted January 7, 2014 well me and my wife are just getting started I bought some used tools off of ebay and a tandy kit!!! made a coaster last night and let me tell yall, yall make it look real easy and awesome lol!!! we've got an outlet to sell the products when we actually get the carving and tooling down not saying the stuff would fly off the shelves but we have a home town feed store here in central texas and a lot of customers. as I was doing inventory one day I thought to myself man wouldn't it be neat to build/make some of these spur straps or some of these headstalls how awesome would that be? Well got to looking on craigslist and found a consew 225 sewing machine for $550 wound up trading the guy a tv I had and $325.00 thought that was a good deal specially good for me to start learning on. all I need now is more time and practice does anyone on here have and good practice patterns?? thanks from J&K Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
