I prefer items from hardware stores myself, as Armani won't do very well at all in the Himalayas or on a pitching ship on the ocean. So I do my clothes shopping at Canadian Tire, next to the auto parts section. Like the Lenco which is the subject of "Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot", these threads go for years and years without need for a tailor, do the job well and can be depended on ;-) Thanks for the vote, Dave.
