    Great work. As a retired Navy parachute rigger, fond memories come to mind when I watch you operate your industrial sewing machines.

      I was a stitch bitch as well but on the USMC side. Did you go to school at NATTC Memphis? I know they moved the school to Pensacola in 1997 or 1998 (I attended in 1996). My school was mixed branches so it was Marines, Navy and Air Force.

    Suggestion, you could use a case/rock tumbler with abrasive stones to weather leather etc. before you add them on to work to get the look just right!

    I know what's like working with a bad thumb Steve. I lost one of mine at 4yrs old and about 4-5 yrs ago I sliced my good one length wise and boy I was a mess working with 8 fingers and 1/2 a thumb for a few weeks! Lol Nice work on the jacket it looks great 👍🏻

    11:59 looks much better than adding an extension to the end of the sleeve which most of these i've seen do. Also adds to the design, looks nice with that strip you're pointing at.

    Good job. Reminds me of the time a friend asked me to lengthen the sleeves on a suit jacket. I'm just a hobbyist tailor but he put his trust in me. After pulling the sleeves apart, I found enough extra material turned in at the cuffs for me to work about +1¾". Had to press out the original folds then remake cuff pleats and faux button holes at the new length. Hardest part, strangely, was adding extra length to the lining. Took me a while to work out. Result was good and my friend was happy with it.

    Just to note: Sometimes a jacket can give 1-2in on the sleeves by applying lots of moisture and stretching from the center. Worth considering before making alterations.

    Thumbs (out of all the fingers) to get hurt, suck the most. I stabbed my hand by mistake a few years back, lost some functionality in my pointer, but i can still type extremely fast on a keyboard because i learnt to work around it, but when i nearly decapped my thumb... oh boy. I felt it in everything i do, from using keys to holding a hammer or a box knife, even reading a freaking book was a chore. Opposable thumbs are the hottest slice since sliced bread and we really can't do without them.

    Steve: It is always instructional to see different types of projects that need different solutions. That is the secret to your creativity. At the beginning of the video, I try to guess how you will fix the jacket. I, of course, was wrong. A really elegant solution. If we hadn't seen the original, the extra panels would never be noticed. Thank you. (being super busy is what we call 'A Problem of Success')

    In the crafts industry, cuts and scrapes heal faster because your constantly in paint thinner, turpentine etc., it tends to dry them up faster. Keep the bandage off and the wound clean as possible. It comes with the territory.

    Question. I usually wear regular jackets. I purchase an Schott Bomber jacket from the 70s and ir was a long. The sleeves tend to fold and the material in the wrist area can actually be somewhat hidden and it looks like its just the leather. So Should i shorten the sleeve or just rock out with it?
