C.A. Myers awl for all

[randyt]

I am needing sew several layers of canvas. Thought about rivets but then I remembered a cigar box full of awls from my youth. It's not a super fast process but it does work. I have a few different styles.

Here's my main one. Had them for years but had slipped my mind

I have two, one has a plastic spool and aluminum needle holder. The other is all steel parts other than the wood handle

At least a pair and a spare.

Mine were picked up over the years. A couple probably belonged to my granddad. There is a old one in the bunch. Thinking it's a speedy stitcher. Has a screw on lid like the Meyers but a wood spool in the handle.

In a Ron Hood video, he sews with the needle put into a handle, no spool. Would work just ad well

My ancestors were preppers. There is hardly nothing I really have to get. Some things change.

 

[Patchouli]

Um, actually I think I have one.

 

[randyt]

That's the problem, we forget the little things at times.
