No kidding... Now I don’t know what kind of machine you’ve got, but I’m betting that leather (even buckskin) might be too tough on it if it’s electric. My old singer might do buckskin if I used a heavy needle and some good, heavy Guterman thread. Unless your machine is an oldy, (50's-60's vintage) I don’t think I’d attempt it. Biggest problem would be attaching the soles... but like anything else approached in life, always remember this: It’s all just problems to be solved and there is a solution.

Bam! (whiskey for sputnik)

Bam! Bam! Bam! (three for heli)

Ahhhh... (taking breath and sitting down from behind the bar)
Z, how are you this evening?

I've been wanting to have some weave done, actually, but have a hard time letting my hair grow to the 3 inches that it needs to be to put them in...

I've seriously tried a few times, though.... I think it would be fanfuckingtastic...

those falls are quite nice, too... me with my little ears up top some days, and bigger ears other days.... fun fun...

You've got GREAT taste, by the way...
let me know when you need me to consult for you.

Too damn flimsy and takes too long to drill the holes. Now I just need an inspiration.

Actually I know what I want to make, but just need the resources.

I want to build a 12 foot garden trowel and put it in my front yard.

Hi Blue,
Between Noir and sputnik, they're getting fired up to do something too, so I'm going to wander off and start something.

I need to see if some of these perfectly good materials around here really have the potential to be something still left in them.

I'll be back later,.........
