I’m making my wife a custom leather purse. The stamping is done and I have it dyed with all the straps and buckles riveted on, but I’m having a tiny bit of trouble with the double stitch . Aggravating . As far as my gift , I’ve been dropping hints about a Dobyns Sierra 702SF , trying not to make it too obvious. Searching YouTube for reviews on it while she thinks I can’t see her out of the corner of my eye . My son asked me today all innocently what I want for Christmas, and I know she put him up to it. I had to play it cool, so I just casually mentioned a fishing rod would be nice . If I just flat out ask for a specific rod they’ll know the jig is up. Christmas is so much fun.
