Nail Pouches

[FRETDUST]

Hi everyone
I too am new to this site and I really enjoy it alot. I,ve been scrolling for about 12 years now. I started with a crasftman saw that my dad had given me, now I have the Dewalt 788. I really like the saw and have had no problems with it at all. I have a ? that has bugged me for years. You know the nail pouches that everyone at one time or another has used? Why in the world do they always make the strings shorter everytime I use one *L*Have a great week everyone.

Thank-you Evie for replying to my post. Yes I will have to put a few pics of my work on this site. I have a clock that I made called the Gus Clock that I sent to Orange County Choppers. Paul Sr. has a Bull Mastiff dog called Gus. I have not heard anything from them as yet. I did make another clock and sent it to them that I seen on TV. Thanks again

Welcome fretdust. two things we love here, woodwork and humour, no matter how it is spelled

When my dad passed away one of the things he left me was his leather apron. I am glad the strap is long enough. I am way bigger than dad ever was
He had to use a pillow to be Santa, I don't!

For the sake of a few cents more you think they would make an apron that fastens up front!

Heck they don't seem to give much away any more. I even saw a price tag on a paint stir stick the other day. I remember when you got the stick the church key and a drop cloth just for buying paint. Oh yeah, free painters caps then too.

We sure have lost a lot in our new bottom line profiteering era.

Well I am off to scrounge up another soapbox I need the wood for cutting.
