Black wool

Jesse,

I'll bring half a square metre of the black wool for you. $15 for it.

I'm still working on a price for the backpack. Don't worry, I'll keep it under $100. Your backpack is the last job I'm doing for $6.50 /hr though. I think I'm going to put my labour costs up to $10.00 per hour.

Cheers,
Pud

Glengarry Backpack

Jesse,

I'll do one for you.

I have located the buckles for your backpack, so don't bother going out and getting any. I hope to have it ready for you in another week.

Cheers,

Old Canteen

Jesse, Fill it with a solution of water and baking soda or, better yet, water and peroxide. (4:1 of either). As Dave said bleach will work but you might have a very bad reaction to it if you don't rinse it well enough. Let swell for four days. Rinse and flush with cold water several times. Then fill...
