I take mine in a zip-loc bag to my bank, but you do have to have an account for them to count it.
Same for me, at least this millennium....back in the day (pre-Y2K), you could pump then pay, but I haven't seen one of those in decades.

So ive have spent several thousand dollars and hundreds of hours trying to up my sheath game over the last several months, I'm happy to say I think my leather work has come leaps and bounds in that time, but still unsatisfied, I have been trying new processes and whatnot. Today I learned a valuable lesson, dont dye the sheath blanks and wait to work them as far as glueing and sewing another day, its like trying to get beef jerky to cooperate!

Just hang on for the ride! And expect her to roll her eyes a lot...at least if you're doing it right...
I didn't say buy something you need, I said buy a knife.

Something me and a buddy came up with while drinking...
On the right side of that doghouse you can see a sign... It has bullet holes in it that are about half inch in diameter. You had to keep one elbow on that oak tree, 11 feet away, and try and get the dart through the correct bullet hole.... 9 people have tried... Hundreds of throws... But it remains undefeated!
Nice dog house.
These were berries I had frozen and never got around to using. Moving forces you to finish up things lol.
Looking good! I figured you prolly cheated.
I'm Looking forward to making my first batch.
The station i go to will let you If they know you... I just wave my hand and they turn the pump on...
But i don't blame them for not doing it everywhere... The way people are these days they'd prolly lose money to drive-offs... Then the price increases for the rest of us.
Oh, by the way, my daughter turns,13 today! Pray for me!
Happy birthday to her, good luck to you.

I guess I'm in the minority on the whole pay before you pump thing. I can't say I've ever pre-paid for gas unless I just use my card at the pump because I don't need anything from inside the store.

I only have to prepay if I have to get gas in a city. I guess that's one of the things I don't even think about. One of the benefits of small town/country living.

you can dampen the spine of the sheath to soften it enough to fold and glue without causing issues on the sewing, but in my experience, it works better to glue and stitch while just slightly damp. punching the holes is easier and they close up better afterwards.
