    Sorry... that's was me.





    Poll: Restaurant employee or gas pump card skimmer I missed in a hurry to refuel the rental car? Or perhaps the recent govmint.com online purchase?

    I'm guessing the lift occurred in Charleston, SC 7-10 days ago. Oddly, only the one attempted charge and it was declined. Got a fraud alert and responded right away so the card got frozen. I usually see a flurry of online charges.

    Restaurant employee is my vote.

    At least that's the right outlook.

    Made up this case for holding sawzall blades, just for the hell of it. It's got a magnet in each section so the blades won't slide out. It also has magnets to hold it closed, one in each corner. One of the top magnets fell out while I was sewing and I didn't notice, so that pair doesn't work. The other pair has to go through too many layers to be effective. The slant pocket was mostly cosmetic, but it's a good thing I did it or the magnets would all lay on top of each other when folded and it wouldn't fold correctly. Also, I haven't really researched how to cleanly apply binding around outside corners, so I just muscled my way through it. Oh well. First time for everything. This idea has potential, but certainly needs a few revisions. Next time I'd save a ton of time just using velcro and ditching the magnets and water proofing. This is what I've been doing to learn how to sew, making stuff just because. It sure is difficult to do and the learning curve is steep!

    Proto v2.0 is done and had its first field test today. V2.0 is WAY better than the first one. I don't want to post photos of it though in case a miracle happens and I'm able to sell it at some point.

    Similar issue here. Persuaded to pursue another track (or two) to "diversify" and let my core skillset lag. Now playing catchup to a degree...
