My wife saw this posted and asked if i wanted it, 2 good boxes of both tooling leather and heavy garment leather for grips and other sundry items. Also came with some leather tools and a craft knife made from a nicholson file all for $30

The thing with the black handle is called a draw gauge and it's for stripping out leather straps. We used one years ago for making belt blanks. Use a curved Exacto blade under the thumb screw on the end as the cutting edge.

Bub,
That stool reminds of my father-in law that pasted last year....I made a stool just like that...that he had for pay lake fishing.   I used it for a few years ground hunting..
Cool design.

That was a nice gesture from her.  That will come in handy while camping.

Looks like good place to rest those fake knees/hips.

Stopped by the Flea Market looking for something real rusty to try out the Evaporust solution. Soaked it for about  a day, hosed off solution, and then light sanding, priming and the paint. The solution worked real good.
