@Anesthetist Very cool. And I like the pieces you already have.

[Giles]

I may be too simple for conundrums of this magnitude, But I would only separate them if "terrible:" was the last word of the first part. Then they can stand alone as two separate messages.....

[sabergirl]

I kind of like how disjointed it is if you separate. Like “I’m going to tell you a story of something. Really.”

Then comes “Terrible. But first let me get a drink and a smoke.”

If they’re next to each other it can be a unified story. Or not. Gives flexibility.

Could be fun if hung near but not next to each other so that there is a slight pause as the eye goes from one to the other.

I’ll echo what Nik said. Makes it more interesting this way.

It’s a gem for sure.
What ended up on the hanger??

@Bigdog IHSH-123 indigo hickory hickory western.

[Anesthetist]

Great shirt that 123!

I talked to the artist and will see what kind of bids he can get for the framing. Free art. $1000 frame job

Thank you guys and gals for the input, I think it will largely depend on me measuring out my wall space to really nail it down.

[Matt]

@Anesthetist did the artist have a suggestion?

I thought that said pig and I was like “Dude! You got a pig?!?!”

[Matt]

And then I was like “Why does your pig need a day planner?”

I made it out of his hide!

Ghurka makes beautiful things. I want a new Gearpack but they have gotten very pricey.

Their quality went downhill for a few years when they shifted some production to China but they are back in form and using American and European artisans, saddle stitching, and great leather. I love their designs too for heritage style objects, even if I usually go for more technical materials and builds.

I had a wallet that was bulletproof until I was mugged and it was stolen. They have since discontinued that model and I love my dyneema wallet anyway but I’ve always had great experiences with the brand.

Their garment bag is so nice.

Giving these new shinki Lofgren M43's a try, they should arrive later today

@Matt Been wondering this myself. Nice get!
