    RIP VLJ??

    Glad to hear a fix is in the works, I've been there for years and have earned the friendship of many through joint efforts in several projects and discussions.

    Crazy Hat Bands

    Thanks, there's a thick Mylar stiffener sandwiched in between once the detail work is done and then carefully stitched around the perimeter. The front band is made of heavy HH with button loops in the back. I did make an elastic band to attach but the guy is using a simple piece of string for...

    Crazy Hat Bands

    Here's a custom job I did some time back for a guy. First photo was the model he sent to go by and he told me to use my imagination. So I said to myself "Fly, be Free" I thought this idea might just be crazy enough to keep doing regularly. Whaddaya think?

    You probably already have the email from your internet provider. They require this to stop guys that have been kicked off from simply creating a new email 5 minutes later. Whether it be AT&T, Comcast, whoever, all provide an email with their service.

    Old gas stations

    On the way to the back yard of an estate sale, I walked over a piece of plywood that appeared to be 1/4 of a billboard. 5 bucks later it was in the back of my truck. All rotted around the edges and falling apart, these tow parts were carefully jigsawed out and here you are.....guessing 1950's...

    Regretting to put patches on my new Aero A-2......

    Sorry Scott, I am making use of the ignore list in both places and just trying to follow this thread. Maybe they could just leave me alone? Be advised all that I have no idea what's being said, I am not even looking as I compare it to and have as much interest in it as running around the block...

    Regretting to put patches on my new Aero A-2......

    And here's another just to show how the Air Corps arranged their jackets, I've seen countless times how the AAF HQ is placed on the wearers left shoulder and the current unit on the right. They loosely followed the regulations if followed at all. You'll find many different combinations.

    Yes I am to answer your question, and I have two for you, Are you freakin serious? and are you 10? I am in touch regularly with both of them and quite a good relationship is in place. There has been no mention of you (whoever you are) or that thread since whenever it happened (can't even...

    Regretting to put patches on my new Aero A-2......

    So to get back on topic and away from the character deformation. Here's a Paratrooper jacket that just arrived. The guy bought patches from me a while back and had some tailor shop apply them to his jacket. Not bad as far as placement goes and you can see that his choice was to represent a war...

    Here's an older tag but the wing pattern is no longer available and I've had a new font created. This on is the standard Tandy leather Factory font that everyone has.

    Leather Name Tag for A2

    Sorry you feel that way Big J, we all get a little riled up at times but I'm trying to tone it down a bit. Unfortunately some can't do that and just continue on and on like a loose cannon not really sure what they're shooting at. My only answer to this Cyber stalking type of behavior is the...
