Flanknstien,
I just found that forum at the end of the year. There was some pretty good info being tossed around, along with the other stuff. I think if they made people register to post and not be able to use anonymous names and potentially a new name everytime they posted it would have been more manageable. It didn't look like anyone official was moderating it, and things got out of hand at times.
A few of us from a leatherworker forum got to watching the USCRA forum and were trying to get active on it from our perspectives. If you find where the action went, post a link or send me an email through my site at
