Bit of a daggy question I know but WTF.
I've got me little collection now of about 6 patches, one of em' being HD forums of course, and now how do I put em on??

I know it's been mentioned in the past here to silastic/glue on? but that will obviously damage the leather jacket if you ever need to remove etc??

Anyone know of a shop in Sydney that will sew them on?
I asked local tailor said no, I asked Mister Mint show repair dude said no.

(Ps. no I do not have enuff points with the missus to even ask)

I have a little alterations shop in my local shopping centre that does it.....but I guess it's bit far to come to Melbourne just to get some patches attached

Yeah, the guy at Gypsy Leather is good.

DO my own as I have a Old Singer 45K Leather machine,,

I tried sticking a few to a leather vest, some of them stuck okay, some started to lift. The ones that had the smooth backing (iron on type) lifted. I used silicon. Ended up getting them all sewed on, at $5 a pop. Have glued a southern cross patch to the back of a Dryrider jacket, just last night. I should go and have a look to see if it worked. Yes it has worked, this time I used Bostick Multi Bond 30ml tube. Works better than on the leather because of the material finish.

I have the wife sew them on, the trusty sewing machine don't let her down,

doesn't everyone own a sewing machine?

Marcel at Gypsy is the way to go and he is very reasonable
opposit Joyce Mayne at Auburn and while ur there pick up some Krispy Kremes !

I thought i give the local lady a shot, she sewed the patch on at an angle
cheap price cheap job !

Cheers lads. Yeah will call into the Gypo' one day next week.

For my jappa/drag racing jacket I have used the iron on and sticks no problem on that fabric/material stuff.

Here is some (fairly lame) info on history patches etc if interested.

Dunno about #13 reasoning though?
