So, that could also be called anti-domed? Lol! Really though, that is something I want to try also. Yours look great! Mike

What did you use to dome the cuff? I have been using a trailer hitch ball, but it is awkward.

I'm always afraid to wear them, though I know they won't fall off even though they feel like it.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
