I would buy a few also, please let us know if he's interested. I would rather purchase from someone on the board and pay more than going to sewing stores to get. Thank you so much, they are beautiful.

What a handy fella -he does nice work I probably have a dz rippers some where Maybe he could add one of those nifty retractable key rings or dog leash for me
|
does he turn them on a lathe? My DH did that but no more crafts for him. boo hoo!

He makes pens and key chains that hold pills. He sells them. So I guess my answer is yes. LOL |

The seam ripper is gorgeous! I LOVE IT!! Where does he sell them? I can just imagine how good that feels in your hand. Hope it makes the lousy job of ripping out seem better!! : ) |
Oh my goodness, I just love tools with wooden handles. I collect and use them a lot. Even my kitchen wooden spoons are all hand made by artisans(which I take care of properly.) I have large hands for a women and those tiny little rippers just make me mad! Definitely will buy one or two!! Looks a bit like stained birds eye maple. Please do encourage him to continue. Depending upon how long it takes him to make one, I would suggest $10-$12
|
ooo,ooo I have a suggestion, if he has to buy them we could all find those little lost buggers we have and send 'em your way! Go Green!
|
Let us know when he has some for sale. Put them in the "classified"
|
Let us know when he wants to start selling them and what the price would be.
|
That is such a special gift! :thumbup:
|
My DH is a woodworker too, I love this! Throwing hints his way.
|
does he sell them, it's beautiful
|
That is too pretty to use!
|
A work of art that's useful. Love it.

Hubby is now making one that is larger - easier for us to use for longer periods of time ( I rip alot) or if you have arthritis. I'll post when he finishes. He's using Mahogany this time :)

Very pretty!
Maybe he'll branch out into a collection of sewing tools.. A needle case - something similar to the "purple thang" - needle threader - etc etc.. I'm envisioning matched sets! |
How about a stiletto that is actually pointed
|
WOW!!! (I'd put a screw eye in the end and put it on a long chain so I wouldn't lose it!) What a great guy! Where did you find him????
|
What a special gift. I love to hear how husbands support their wives' quilting hobby (addiction for me). :thumbup:
|
Wow, how nice.
|
We all need a wooden iron.

|
He is so talented beautiful
|
I would love to purchase some also. Please let me know when they are available. They are beautiful, beautiful and more beautiful. Thanks for the pic.

http://www.eleanorburns.com/search/?search=wooden+iron This one was a surprise. He asked if he could borrow my ripper and he brought it back with a wooden handle. He's such a sweety (at times) :) |
this is a nice product.. i think the pointed stiletto is a fantastic idea as well.
|
Hes a keeper for sure.
|
Lovely. I think its really nice to use something that was made for you by someone you love. Makes using it not so bad.
|
where does he get the plastic lids?
