Hey Dalton,
I've been slavin' away workin' long hours to get it wrapped up, off to the printers, for distribution through TLF, (Tandy Leather Factory). I'm still probably two weeks from gettin' it all on paper to be scanned, and that's optimistic. Two to three months from when I send it off to the printers, (depending on the printer's schedule and how fast TLF can get it distributed).
But, bein' a one-man-shop, there are always unforeseen events that can slow stuff down. Take the bike accident I had two weeks ago. My friends have been tellin' me, "Will, you're too old to be jumpin' your mountain bike down a flight of stairs!" And I keep tellin' 'em, "No, I'm plenty young enough to jump my bike down a flight of stairs. I'm just too old to wreck the stunt."
Then there is my vintage, collectors item, 1987 2500 GMC Suburban that I took the train to Utah to buy, (the truck of my dreams, the last vehicle I will every buy). It still needs a fresh coat of paint and undercoating before it can survive a winter of salt here on the arctic plains of Ioway country, (it has no rust bein' a western truck). But, my bike stunt has left me a week behind on the sanding and priming because I couldn't function properly. The good news is, now it is all sanded down to the metal and primed. Next step is the mil spec flat desert sand paint job, (with flat white Normandy "Invasion Stars" painted on the doors, back barn doors, and hood). Then it is good-to-go for it's first winter here in the frozen tundra. Next year will be the custom full-length luggage rack, spare tire rack, jerry can rack, military bumpers, and winch. Can you say, "Most awe inspiring off-road, adventure vehicle ever!?" It's all manual and factory stripped, (it doesn't even have floor coverings, AC, power windows, or a headliner), so there is little to break down or need maintenance. Like I always say, "You can live in your Suburban, but you can't drive your house to work!"
So, if everything goes well, (and in my world that is always a very big "if"), you may have the patterns in time to work night and day to get everything done for the blessed season of our Lord's birth. But, since you are waiting on it, I will redouble my efforts and try to speed things along.
Will
