Weed Eater line

Looks like i will be making one as well!

Nothing wrong with using old t shirts. If it makes us "cheap" then so be it. I would think most people would be happy to save few bucks.

Thanks for the pics and quick replies!
 
CHEEP..maybe not but I cut my own patches out of WalMarts finest, heavy white cotton flannel...usually while watching TV. Don't care for thin, including t-shirt, patches at all..I want something that will carry a lot of solvent/cleaner in.. and bring out the gunk.

#1 on PatchWorm for .17 HMR and 22LR...keep several in my gear boxes.

The other end is a piece of brass rod done the same way. I've used these for 4 or 5 years and have never pulled an end off.

Now this, I like!

Going to have to jump down to wally world and pick up some supplies today!
A visine bottle full of solvent, a few patches from an old flannel shirt, put it all in a plastic skoal-can and you're good to go

I thought I was the only one who saved my old t-shirts for things like this. I also tear them up to polish and waterproof my Danner boots. I wear them until there's hardly enough to hang on me anymore, then throw them in my shoe shine crate. I'm using an old L.L. Bean shirt from fifteen or twenty years ago right now. I should probably let them know how much use I got out of it.
