Thanks, Gordy. All encouragement much appreciated. Just gotta take the leap here. I think I need a better awl, and might go with the waxed linen thread, so I gotta pick up the phone again. I do like to sift through a bunch of different points of view and techniques and decide which works best. Come to think of it, I do that with just about everything.
