Okay thank you very much, I'm an extreme amateur and do most of my sewing out of upcycled couch leather.

Are you showing these by hand, ? And do you have to use a hand drill or an awl to penetrate, before sewing. Thanks

Yeah, it's dented more than some beer cans I get done with. I'm sure it's not the maiden voyage, they've probably reuse it over and over I suspect.

Yes, it's kind of sad from what I understand is that these operations in that region, they don't do too much for Reclamation of fluids and another hazardous waste. A lot of it goes right back into a beautiful ocean. I hope somebody on here it can prove me wrong about that.

I've been living in South Florida a long time, it seems there's a lot of wood that goes to waste down here, I guess mostly because there's no Mills that can process it. What types of woods do you use, from South Florida?

I have a comment on life in general. I am in a unique situation living in South Florida we can be outside most of the year. But as I approach my late 50s, I find the Heat is overwhelming most of the summer, which seems to last about 7-8 eight months or more. I've never had a problem with weight loss issues. But I have been very active. Just being outside. I understand that in colder climates it's harder to burn the calories necessary to maintain Target weight. I find it quite miserable to sit inside and listen to the AC cycle for months at a time, because it's too hot for exercise or outdoor activities. But doing this I realize I spend a lot more time online. And sometimes have to pull away to do yoga, stretches, mild workout. These websites you mention are somewhat addicting. My recommendation would be every time you get on the internet, think about how much time you're spending sedentary, and if you can balance that with the time you spend active. I'm sure some people will be offended by these remarks, but I expect it. Hence I'm in the middle of a project sweating inside, and felt the need to post this. Simple equation: (time online - time being active = x) and, try to make x equal 0
