Scratch, scratch, she’s clawing at the door
Whoa, no, I can’t take it anymore
Crack, crack I’m feeling so sore
I never should asked for black leather

Now this is some thick leather!  As I mentioned, we actually have a large leather craft shop here locally and a couple tack shops as well. (You’d think it was Wyoming..) But no one had leather cord that looked thick enough to me to last on a skin-on-frame kayak.  Thankfully Bruce Stitt referred me some on Ebay which was just what I was looking for.  Now to honest I have no idea what I’m doing, but I’m reading and learning as I go.  Now that I have the cord, I have to figure out what sort of stops I want to use.  The old wooden ones seem, well.. bland.
