    @SKT said in Repairs & Modifications:

    “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

                    @GraemeE worked his magic on these two hoodies! Can’t wait to wear these more!

                        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)

                                  I'm on the final lap of those shredded carhartts - thankfully my friend digs the rustic look

                                      Finally got the pocket that @GraemeE fixed up for me sewn back onto the jacket! Love it!
                                      Excited to have a functional pocket again

                                          @Denman-John you have nothing to lose - give it shot on something low stakes at first - worst case scenario you cut the thread and take it out

                                          The backing on Brocks pocket is this material
