Where I spend my time

[wildrover]

Travis, where'd your hair go??

Legba, you should see that leatherwork in person! Are you on a woodworking or metal lathe in your picture?

Sadly, the majority of my "where I spend my time" pics do not involve kilts, since they involve grease, sparks, crawling around on the floor, and fending off molten metal in awkward positions...visualize the reaction of friends and neighbors, if they walked in on you resting on a creeper, upper half engaged in a reconstitution of the spleen/heart/duodenum of some metal beast, kilted lower half waiting to greet whoever walked by!

When not in the garage...I like to be in the middle of nowhere.

Had to walk up the creek a bit...


Drat, the current pulled a sock down. Thought I felt that garter getting loose earlier.


Walking in the creek was not only a necessity, but led to things like this:


More "kilt in natural environment"...more of these, when the truck in the previous picture is finished!



Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh




I have some pictures from solo piping comps, but they're a lot less interesting, and all the pictures from my garage don't involve kilts since it isn't a kilt-friendly sort of place. Even that guy from the UK website with the leather leg protectors under his UK would probably get spatter burn, fiberglass rash, or gear oil in the strangest places. It's a Carharrt sort of place.

Wildrover, my hair had gotten all split and unhealthy, so I hacked it off. I may let it grow back, or I may not! Haven't made up my mind yet. And thanks for the compliment on my work.

I would love to see the work! It's a woodlathe.

Thanks, now I've got to go shave my eyeballs.

Love the pics!

Here's another piece of my work- my pride and joy! My dirk. The sheath is wet molded vegetable tanned leather, sewn up the back.





And my son holding it up for me!



So do we get to see some of your work, Legba, or just your work area?
