24569030 Report post Posted April 10, 2021 I made a few mistakes on this project but learned loads too, like I really need to get some flat nose pliers to pull the needle through rather than use my hands. My poor fingers were shredded by the time I’d finished. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bert03241 Report post Posted April 10, 2021 Instead of Pliers I use those rubber finger tips on thumb and index finger.makes gripping and pulling a lot easier. https://smile.amazon.com/Cosco-Rubber-Finger-Medium-098173/dp/B00T8A7MM2/ref=smi_www_rco2_go_smi_4368549507?_encoding=UTF8&hvadid=167131134469&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9030113&hvnetw=g&hvpone=&hvpos=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvrand=12698839773688857265&hvtargid=pla-314544930691&ie=UTF8&linkCode=df0&psc=1&tag=hyprod-20 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
