Just ask yourself What would I need to sew something?
I'm sure you will get it by yourself. :wink:

1) I never used the stretcher myself, i doubt it works

2) make sure that the leather is dry, to dry it, leave it outside until it changes colour

3) If i'm not mistaken, to work on the leather, you have to USE the leather... instead of the tool

you must have scissors and needle in hands, leather and thread in belt. Just 'use' the leather then ;)

Are you sure you don't want to be a carpenter? Or a smith? There is much competition to be a tailor

In other words, YOU are a tailor?

Yes, in other words I am a tailor. But what I say is true though, isn't it?

It's the only profession still fun/doable/not overly realistic and hard.

No, you guys said that because tailor is easy way to make money. Darn those halfing, buy so much tailor products. I hate dwarves, they buy cheap and sell high, way too high. I dare any of you smith can get rich off dwarves.

But try it, there are lots of mage and warriors who can use good carpenters and smith. Trust me, you can get rich from them. Don't try NPC.

Yes but you must have some skill to do this, Tailoring, you can make loads of money with no skill. And you can make a lot of money off the dwarf, if you have a lot of sheets.

Rephrase "If" It is not everyone who can make that "If". Everyone can go to pig pit to slaughter some pig, cut the entrail and make leather products. From leather shoes to leather boots to leather armors, nearly everyone can be sold to halfling or morgan for that that matters.

But you have to run between mines to get resource to smelt iron, and you don't get food like you kill pig - pork. In which you also have to find food. Not only this, not everything you forge can be sold. If you want to say, why not buy sheet from someone else? Save a lot of time, yes, do remember you also receive profit reduction.

You make this "If" sounds so easy. If you are not fighter or dwarf, you will have to fight wolves sometimes when you go to Northen Mine, try that "If" that time.

IC matters...
Some 'crafts' are harder in rl, some are easier.

Do we count machine? If you ask me, craftsmen are for middle age and engineers for today.
