Got two fun things going on today! Just got an email from Bree at Kibler that my Woodsrunner kit is ready to ship (que ear to ear smile)….. and The book I ordered showed up in the mail. Yay

Thanks, that other view explains it perfectly.

That wide,leather band is pretty cool. Was that sewn into a loop then wet and stretched on there? Shrinking as it dried?
