Ok, I found a Fed-ex and a UPS Drop off box in the next town. So if you want to ship you jackets, chaps etc and add a return shipping label I can do that. Also, I can stuff my jacket into a USPostal box of "One rate ships all" box. That box went for 15 bucks.
So yes, I am ready for accepting mailing jackets, etc.
All you have to do is put an enevolope with the cash and the return label in the biker jacket or box
label it and have your return address and phone number listed. That way if there is any problems I can call you.
I will setup the address soon.

T-shirt Design. What do ya think?
rying out this web T-shirt design. Not to hard to make. I could go color but it is too, way too expensive.
What do you think? How does it look in Black and White? Do you think it is to much to have it on both the front and back? I am thinking that it is OK because I can have it showing on the front because of my back brace. Other people may like it on the back. I am up in the air on it. I kind of like it for the price. I will have to look around for less expensive printing of T-shirts. I am thinking of getting about 20-25 of them, or just get one at a time when someone wants to buy it, but not at this price. When you order more the price should drop not go up. I am still doing my homework on this. Well, what is your take on it?

Today's the Day!
"Today's the Day!" Mr. Mel Fisher said that all the time. Today I am looking for a leather sewing machine.
I will also be adding to the biz a repair of Motorcycle jacket zippers. And if they have the old "bomber-style" jackets I can sew the cuffs and the waist bands.
So to date this is what I can do:
1. Clean Motorcycle Jackets, chaps, saddle bags, boots + accessories.
2. Sell my stuff to clean Horse "Tack & Saddle" equiptment.
3. Repair Motorcycle Jacket zippers.
4 Repair other leather jackets cuff and waist bands.
That should be enough to get started.
And to quote another famous guys: "And a way we go!".

Just about ready to put "Open for Biz" sign out!
Motorcycle Jackets, Chaps, Saddlebags + Accessories, PH-balance,cleaning done by hand.
814-389-6119.
That is my new "signature" for my emails. I am thinking about adding a (mail-order cleaning service) to my business. I have a lot of biker buddies in CA that want to ship their jackets. Also, I was asked to clean some "Tack & Saddle" leather. That my friend, is a lot of work. I am thinking that I will just sell them the cleaners and conditioners and let the Horse Lovers do it themselves. These motorcycle jackets take up a lot of time cleaning them by hand.
Like I said in the by-line, I am just about ready to launch the "Open" for Biz sign. I am waiting for a few more items I ordered. An old garment rack to hang the jackets on. etc.
Now, I have to go shovel snow!

My leather supplies are starting to arrive today.
I did about 2 hours of research today on the "How to's" of cleaning leather. Whew! got a lot of work ahead of me. My business card arrived today. They look great. I am sending them out to all my friends and biker buddies in California and around the world.
Also got a box of old leather tools and needles from Briton. Man, they do not make needles like these anymore. Had a couple from china but they broke after a couple of passes. The guy is looking for some more leather tools in his shed.
I am tracking down a couple of "Home-made" receipes for the conditioner and cleaner. I am also looking for an old Ironning board, garment rake, small one, and an old cloth makers mamiquine (manikin). There is the supplies update. The sooner I get my stuff organize the faster I can start advertising.
Happy Ground Hogs Day!
Sometimes, I feel that is my life right now.
