@Giles:

I could do a monster darn…..

How is darning duck different from denim, if any?

Is there a method which is better for duck than it is for denim?

[Giles]

It's not different in Gosport…...

Is the cake what put the added stress on the garment?[emoji6]

[4c]

Nope, meant more in line with:
an activity that is easy: breeze, cakewalk, child's play, cinch, doddle, duck soup, walk in the park, walkover

Gotcha, well done

I got lots of ketchup (and B.O.) all over my 555s and had to wash them. I need them dry asap… so I made a box fan sandwich to dry them asap!

Edit: bone dry in a little over an hour.

Haha awesome idea, @FilthyBloodJunkie!

Thanks everybody

I blew the button off my Beatle Busters. (Giles was right! I shouldn't have sized down!) So I made a sew-on button out an old copper penny, and affixed it with some Kevlar. It turned out really great. I made the holes in the penny using a center punch, and hammered out the penny making it concave using a ball-pin hammer as a die and a 9 pound hammer. It took 2 blows over a piece of soft pine to make the right shape. I might like this better than the regular button.

I love that…..

Thanks. I am most pleased. I needed something that could stand up to the heft of your amazing 25 oz denim!

Wow!
