Ahh, I see now that it is buried a couple of pages deep in a pop up thingy. Thanks, I suspected something like 400D. And am I missing something here? Is Visqueen nothing but standard poly sheeting? If so, as a retired (reformed?) builder I've got oodles of it. Best regards, Lance

Hi, Mike. I hope you and the family are all well. The pattern making demo and associated discussion should come in handy. I recently got a new-to-me sewing machine in an industrial table and sporting an industrial clutch motor drive and will soon be getting more sewing practice with an eye to...

Yup, that appears to be them over on swisslink.com. The dimensions would indicate around 47 liters.... Lance

If the lettering is adhesive backed vinyl just hit it with hot air from a hair dryer and it will lift off cleanly in nearly every case. The 1/4" stuff in particular can make a fair folding table top is judiciously slit from alternating sides to create an accordion fold. A tape reinforcement...

I've used the "super adhesive back" hook and loop from McMaster-Carr with the acrylic adhesive and can attest that it will peel the paint off a surface before the adhesive fails. It bonds to vinyl coated fabrics like dry bags etc and stays put in sub zero weather. McMaster-Carr has a lot of hook...

Heck, working at a scout camp we still get to paddle aluminum regularly. Until a bit over three years ago when we downsized and moved from Upstate New York to North Carolina I had a heavy duty Grumman with the shoe keel, rowing rig, partial sailing rig, 1.5 HP Johnson motor etc. That canoe got...

As a former New Yorker and sometimes Adirondacks wayfarer I can relate to that. Thta's likely the 3rd or 4th time I seen that video repurposed..... Best regards, Lance

How please? I've given thought to using one of our pressure cookers to cook lean beef, pork or venison to a pulling tenderness and dehydrate it. Given how hit or miss nature of rehydrating dehydrated chicken has been for us I'm just a bit leery. Any insight would be welcome. Erica, I'm glad...

That's way too cute! Good luck with the new paddling partner. Lance

Dang, Mem. You wouldn't have had far to carry the meat home. I always been a meat hunter and not a trophy hunter and moose are on my short list of things I'd still like to hunt but I doubt it will ever happen especially as there are just two of us now. A whole moose sounds less like a year's...

If there is a corollary to loosing tools in the shop it's the mystery of how they breed and multiply on a job outside the shop. How I can get to a job site and get to work with just my tool belt and a tote but at the end of the job or workday it takes at least five trips to get everything back...

This thread is from before I joined the site but here goes.... For most synthetic ropes (but not most cheap polypropylene) two techniques work well for me. One not mentioned yet is that for most rope or cordage you can lightly flame the outside of the sheath to develop a bit of a crust which...

Shoot! If I don't stumble around in a haze wondering where the heck something is a few times every shop day then it's not really a shop day. I allegedly own three portable belt sanders, one each Porter-Cable 503 and 504 super heavy duty old school worm gear and chain drive "production sanders"...

If it helps any the older Eureka tents floor and seam waterproofing is nothing more than water borne polyurethane and I wouldn't be surprised if it was still in use. Forty years ago I was a independent manufacturer's sales rep for several of the Johnson companies and even years afterward I had...

I've been getting seat webbing and some hardware bits and pieces here: https://customtiedowns.com/webbing/1.5-inch-polyester-webbing/ As they are oriented to custom strap making it generally takes them 4-5 days to cut and ship webbing. Otherwise the prices are good, what they show online for...

Well, my friend didn't have the right kind of toggle clamps for the jig so I had to order them. Between slow delivery times and then us being out of town for 4 days I finally got my hands on the toggle clamp that holds the stock in the mortising jig today. After cutting the seat stock to rough...
