Hi there,
Keen to get a bit more input on this.
The reason we didn't do this initially is because a) we're not TSF and therefore didn't clone all their boards over and b) we felt that having too many boards lead to things getting lost.
For example, we felt that having a board specific to repairs would be less helpful than simply posting the question in the forum specific to the craft. For example if clothing-makers are hanging out in the clothing-making forum they are more likely to see the post than going into a specific repair forum that is a catch-all for different crafts.
However, I can see that we don't really have a spot for working with leather and such. I wonder if perhaps it might be better for us to have a separate forum for leather-working and utility fabrics? A space where people can both share projects relating to this and also get help for example in your case.
Keen to hear thoughts.
