DNA tests are showing many unexpected siblings and relatives!  Great tool!

And your work looks really nice too.

 You're right. It's all good if the ages fit it the right time line. Also if no one is holding their hands out.

Awesome.  And your example of giving vs. holding out your hands is to be followed.  Nice.

Thank you Yintex and Battlemunky.

I do a lot of rounds and 4 x6 inch pieces. An some of them fit

a piece of history of my family of close friends lifestyles. those go to them.

To me, Leather tooling is about reflections of life.

Stewart, I live about a half hour away from you in Plant City, and have many friends and some kinfolk in Lutz. I enjoy seeing your leather pictorials and if you ever want to meet and chat about the craft over a couple of beers let me know.

Looks great, but do people still use cheques, in the UK they are nearly dead apart from some companies

Over 50% of my face to face business is paid for by check.  Until very recently, you couldn't use a credit card or debit card to pay for items bought at an auction, and some auction companies probably still don't take cards.  None of the Amish folks I deal with take plastic, with the exception of one wholesale supplier.  Personally, I write only a half dozen a month or so, but around here, checks are still a very common method of payment, especially with the 40 and over folks and farmers.

Thank you for the offer. Been here since 1954.  Have to hang around the house most of the time.

Not everyone has computers or smart phones. Just like some of us still have hardwired house phones,
