You ever slip up and take a strand or two out while cutting?

No. I've cut too far and not far enough but I can't recall ever cutting them off. A guy is gonna lose some in life for sure once they get to being used. Now on the other hand and sorry for the pun but I do watch my left hand holding the square closely. Have a chap making buddy that made the round apart of the tip of his thumb pretty square doing this with a roller knife. He now uses a piece of angle iron instead of a square! He's very experienced at this as am I and still it happened.

A lil primer on chaps or leggings I did back in 2018. Kinda cool:

Thread 'Climbed the Summit!'

Years ago there use to be this little restaurant here in town called The Summit. They were very close to where Hwy 58 crossed the summit of Tehachapi Pass and thus the name. Could easily see it from the ranch. Their claim to fame was they had 58 different beers from around the world. They'd give you a little card and every time you tried a different beer they'd punch the number out on your card for that beer. After you had tried all 58 you had achieved "the summit". They put your name on a plaque on the wall, gave ya a t shirt and a coffee mug proclaiming the same.

Well Recently I...
