detail of the website comment regarding the material "Tolex"
"I used a tough, synthetic covering called "Tolex", which is used to cover Rock band amplifiers, speakers, and just about every musical instrument case in existence from Rock guitars to French Horns. Its usually plain black, but I was able to purchase this red/black Python-skin look stuff from a speaker supply house."
example website for the stuff.... http://www.mojotone.com/amp-parts/Tolex-and-Tweed

This is making me feel bad. Members are bringing back my old threads where I actually accomplished things. I've not gotten anything done since last year.
Steve, checking your Tolex site out. I "think" I may have had it on my other HD, but lost it.

ALL craftsman who produce for the long haul, have cycles of productivity and cycles of recharge... I find that after periods of inactivity is when I do some of my best work.

OK then, looks like I'm gonna really be productive in a bit ...... I hope.
My wife found two rolls of pre-glued wall paper and we were thinking of covering one of the machine cases with it.
My concern is does it have enough glue on it to really stick to bare wood.

Jim,
On the first page of this thread in the first post is a link to my other thread. I've only done two.
OK, here it is: { http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...r-t199606.html }
I was going to do a third, but the pics were lost. I've got a case out in the garage that's ready for covering, when I get to feeling better and can find some brush on glue I'll make some more pics and do another one.
