Random Rants

Gotta be a way to use the low grade denim and cut the losses. I know Haraki is a perfectionist, but small items like coasters, mouse pads, small tote bags etc. could probably be made without including too many flawed portions. Just a thought…

…25oz cord for a pendant necklace; 25oz wallet rein; 25oz rug (it will get scuffed over time anyway); 25oz Croakies; 25oz iPhone sleeve; 25oz MacBook sleeve; 25oz iPad/Mini sleeve; 25oz double-sided belt (to wear w/ducks); 25oz moleskin cover; 25oz coffee sleeve; 25oz Bic lighter sleeve; 25oz patch; 25 oz boot laces; 25oz toiletries kit...

You've got a point there. On the other hand, this thread has close to 200 pages and far less than 200 good ideas. I trust Haraki-san to pick the good ones (if any) and ignore the rest, so it hurts nothing to toss them all out there and see if any stick.

I won't suggest 1000 RAC005's are made, but hey you never know what could be done with it ;).
Aside, I'm also itching for coasters. added/double aside, I have a SDA denim banner up in the house, and would likely purchase a IH banner, those things are a work of art….
Triple whilst here, should this not be in Ideas for Hakari-san???

This is the issue. The looms being at the limit of possibility stop mid weave randomly, this results in a stuttered re-start. The next few throws of the shuttle resultes in uneven weft lay down. So we have a band of imperfection running across the cloth. It is not a good look to utilise in anything. So we have to cut the patterns out around these bands of imperfection. That is what we are doing with the MBB's at the moment. To be honest haraki and I do not know what the impact on MBB delivery will be. Haraki understands the importance of the MBB issue and will be in the factories the minute his arse lands back in Japan assessing where we are.
As an aside, we get a constant 20% bad fabric when weaving the 21oz.

is it normal in life that there comes a time where you just question EVERYTHING?
atm i just want to breakout, live a happy life without any constraints or thoughts about what needs to happen next! :-\
Just read that and feel exactly the same at the moment. The good part is, as I take it, you're at the beginning of a new phase in your life, so you can take the right steps now. It's always harder to escape from settled situations like work, residence, relationship etc. And I am just at the beginning of realizing how problems in these items can cause even physical problems. Or at least I think so. :-\

keep your head up Flo (that's what I did for now!) there are always greater times ahead off you!
feel free to pm if you want to chat a bit mate! but you're right about my situation…I have my last exam next wednesday so whatever the outcome is, I'm going to move to another level of life. just unsure where it's gonna take me...so after I'm done with focussing on my studies, I'm sure these thoughts I had a few days back are going to come again! so let's wait and see...

Speaking as an older guy, can I give you younger guys a small piece of advice? Take some of the huge wads of cash that you spend of clothes, and instead spend it on seeing the world while your still young, and before you have marriage and kids. Now is your time fellas, and it is a big and amazing planet, go take a look at it. I guarantee that it will help you with your feelings, and answer at least some your questions.
