I hope you get the opportunity to try out a cricut! I've had luck borrowing from friends, but my local library also has weekly periods where they open up their crafting machines (cricut, 3-D printer, laser engraver) for patron use - it could be worth checking out if any in your area do the same.

Yeah, leatherwork would be useful but the tools/supplies would be the biggest barrier there. I do hope to try it someday!

And thank you! It's very nice to be here. :D
