That notebook looking thing is from Renaissance Art. It is called a folder holder.

I had them customize it with a big medieval strap.

Listen guys. I am not affiliated with RA, but their leather is better than any I have ever used. Go check them out.

Yep. I wish they were less expensive, but alas................. What is money for????? But to purchase dreams?

Bisquitlips · 7 August 2010, 12:47 AM

Thanks again everyone for your comment!

Lion · 8 August 2010, 09:27 AM

Now Richard, if you ever get tired of one of your FP's(maybe a spare 149) you can always send it my way and I'll put it to good use.....I promise!!!

Bisquitlips · 8 August 2010, 11:31 AM

I only have two 149's. One for each hand.

I have room for two more. One for each foot.

If you use a pen in either hand and it's called being ambidextrous then what is it called when you use your feet??? LOL!!!

That would be called a toe in!

But writing with a fine FP with your FEET would be gross IMO!

Please provide a writing sample for the "rest" of us!

Uhhh Huhh!
