      @GraemeE well done… looks great. I’m guessing it’s a coin flip between “tedious” and “meditative”

        “tedious” and “meditative”

        You hit the nail on the head

        Probably slightly more meditative since it's easy to space out and not think about anything else while you are doing it.

                @GraemeE hell yea dude. So cool to bring back a piece from the dead like that and give it new life. Bet you learned couple tricks along the way…or at least hopefully less thumb pokes as time went on.

                In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

                  @Mizmazzle definately feels satisfying to save it from near death.

                  My thumb however is quite sore.....

                  I think as I learn more I am going to have to invest in a few tools - finger protection is first on the list

                            These are going to take some serious blood, sweat and tears but I promised a friend I could keep them alive for her for at least a few more years

                                Just starting to see signs of a blowout on a pair of 17oz 666s so I'm testing out this method to see how well it contains it

                                  @GraemeE Your work is inspiring. I’ve been playing with the idea of repairing a few items that are needing attention and this is pushing me in the right direction. Well done!

                                    @Denman-John thank you - that's the exact same scenario that kicked me in the butt to learn how to start fixing my stuff

                                    It's practical and relaxing (expect for the finger pokes)

                                          Finally got the pocket that @GraemeE fixed up for me sewn back onto the jacket! Love it!
