    First Jacket Conversion

    Many thanks to The F-H.C.A.G and David Dalglish for the step-by-steps and the pictures. I would have been completely clueless without them.

    And now, for your viewing amusement...




    I tried to put the pockets back on, but it ended up looking quite ridiculous, so this one is going to be sans pockets.

    It looks quite well done. A few pics of you in would be great!
    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

    In the process of moving this weekend. I'll try and get some more pictures posted as soon as we're settled.

    Thanks for all the encouraging comments!
