    Somehow Gabe and I got our wires crossed and he made me an extra-long one.
    It's ridiculous!
    A few more inches of bliss!

    Well.....Now Razorfeld AND Gabriel know how confusing measuring stuff and communicating it is for me. Much better too long than too short!

    I think I remember what happened. I had Gabe get me 3 panels of roo for some Lipshaw strops.
    I had problems measuring THAT. We finally got it right!

    THEN, he thought I wanted an extra-long strop as I measured my horsehide one he made from hardware-to-end of handle. The length of the handle was what got us!

    I am so happy it happened, however!
    I discovered I have some long-stroke in me!
    So fun to use.
    Wonder how I can get my others to grow?
