Yes, I think I saw the vendor in a stall in Tijuana. As I recall it was made from mouse hide.

NOO, was made from the hide of a chupacabra,very rare stuff

Pix your looms are works of art and absolutely beautiful
And have been on my secret Santa & birthday list since starting this sport, but Santa doesn't have a budget for them and the Family don't agree with me that I need them "Yet"
But definitely on my wish list still, especially a black horn, ebony & Ivory loom and matching brush 24-26mm high mountain knot if the customs guys will agree to it also

Taken less literally, I find little comfort in the various locations. I've honed/stropped out on my deck; Worked my J-Nat at the far end of my property near the koi pond (a sensory rich experience) and I've coaxed edges in my den while watching Formula 1 racing.. about the only thing I watch on TV. I am expecting it will be far more comfortable to have a paddle/loom strop that can be used in the same position, repeatedly, than having to rig a connection with paracord or nails...
