sumobear 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2007 Haha...need a rocking chair while you do knitting? Actually I wanna try knitting but I think it is kind of extreme sport for a guy...I think I am better with sewing bears and other soft toys...hehe:)haha, maybe u can video tape it now on a stand and youtube it! or u jio us go watch u live in action la. hee..Haha...I will try that the next time.Now my bosses are crazy with canvas frames too, we are having alot of canvases in office and the whole place looks more like an art gallery than office but it is cool.nice fabrics on the frames... i like...Hi Selenal,Thanks for the compliments...I am thinking to do more when I have nice pictures. Been brainstorming designs and digging my stack of photographs to enlarge. Will post more pictures in the future...hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sumobear 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2007 can the normal staple gun go through wood?thinking of DIYing a cat tree for my babies but need to hold the pieces of wood togetherone more question, any idea where to get this item?it's the wooden core of those cable rolls. basically it looks like a pole with flat top and bottom, used to coil the cable around to transport them around...I am not sure what is defination of "normal" but I think it is not advisable to construct such structure with staple gun, nails or screws will be a better option. You seem to be getting adventurious huh! Hanging your babies on the tree as decoration? Do not really get what you mean by the description, probably you can show me some sample pictures then I can advise you better?actually knitting can be done by anyone mahi like it coz can do it while commuting instead of staring at pple's shoesmaybe when i shift liao i will start againif not dun know do what with my hands while on the train I cannot imagine myself doing that on the train...eyes will be on me!
