i have one that i keep forgetting to post, and i finally remembered, so please pardon the lateness:

you know you are an addict when you look at your favorite pair of leather boots and wonder how many sling pouches you can get out of them, and how many slings the laces would be good for.

There are egg shaped stones all over my house, on the counter, kitchen table, shelves and buckets and bags of them on the deck.

I look at every pair of leather shoes before I throw them out to see if I can make a sling out of them. I go to thrift store looking for that fat mans 60inch belt for a new sling belt But no I am not A addict! Oh look at those egg shape stones in your yard. MAY I throw just one with my sling Please! please!

A hetrosexual male who lives in a small gossipy town is walking round the charity shops with his Mum and Sister.  He's bored untill he spots something, whispers to his Sister and gives her some money.  She then buys it and rather spoils the subtlety by handing it openly to him with "There you go."  It's a leather mini skirt.  Pig skin, I think, and cost £4.50.   It was made in four panels and so far I've got three sling pouches out of one of them and an undeserved reputation as a secret cross dresser.  Does that count as addicted ?

Slingwolf,
Go for the full-length leather-skirts then, gives more leather for slings too.

Or go to all furniture shops in the town and ask for their old leather sample collections when they get the new colour range.

what about a man who sees people dropping a leather couch (sofa) into a dumpster (skip) and then he sneaks back and cuts out a huge 9ft square of leather?
yes,  it was me.

That is daft, you should have skinned the couch completely, now you have left leather behind  Wink

don't tell anyone, but i once climbed into a dumpster (it was a clean one, i checked) and got around 200 feet of braided blind cord, as well as several cane shafts for arrows.  that was the best dumpster raid yet, for me.  i keep my eyes out though.  and yes, what a waste not taking the whole sofas worth of leather!  i wonder what you could have done with the wood...

  In my college days I was a member of a vegetarian co-op, it was not uncommon for people to ''dumpster dive'' behind this grocery store for produce when it was their turn to supply a meal. It have always been amazed when I think about how generous some people really are without even knowing it. I found a t.v. in the trash a few months ago and it made a superb sling(and pellet gun) target. Throw caution to the wind and look inside that trash bin, what you find may surprise you.
