Repairs & Modifications

@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.
-
@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!
-
Wow! Yea those need some love! Can’t wait to see that pocket irl. Now to get it back on the jacket
-
@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!
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
-
@GraemeE Already looking forward to the update pictures!
-
@GraemeE so damn cool man! Love how the 777 crotch repair turned out. Brock’s pocket puts a damn smile on my face. Just has this happy energy to it.
-
@Mizmazzle thanks man
I'm stoked to find something to add my list of hobbies that's exponentially less expensive than most of my other ones.
Bonus is that , in true Portland commie/hippie fashion, I have managed to trade fixing a few things for kids music lessons, herbal things and farm eggs$$$
