You may have noticed that we’re making a number of changes to The Hog Ring – all with the aim of making it a better community for everyone in our industry!
Among the changes you can expect over the next few months…
A new forum – With all the settings you’ve been asking for, including a professionals-only registration form, required profiles, greater privacy and direct messaging!
More frequent articles – We’re doubling down on providing everyone with the latest industry news, product reviews, interior showcases, discounts and more!
Regular giveaways – From shears to sewing machines, we’re making sure that all of our loyal readers have a chance to get their hands on the latest tools and products!
An industry-wide mailing list – So that you never miss an article, event or sale, we’re putting together an industry-wide email list that you can take advantage of!
A new website design – We’re overhauling our entire website and even logo. And while we’re at it, we’re going to make the site mobile-friendly too!
Of course, none of this will happen overnight. And sometimes the website might look a little janky while our tech team works out the kinks. But in the end, we promise it’ll be all worth it.
We ask you to please bear with us. Keep on coming back to read our articles and tell everyone you know about The Hog Ring! Together, we’re taking the auto upholstery industry to new heights!
Thought that’s what you guys were up to. Thank you very much! Very much looking forward to seeing the result of your hard work.
Thanks for the kind words Jim!

Hi again,
Well look like it works!
Looking forward to sharing info with fellow members.
Especially if you are seeking old English stuff.
Work mainly on pre 1940 cars,
Not always trimmed in leather though, “rexine” was very commonly used in the 30’s on lower price cars.
Regards
Eric
Will there be an archive of topics so the same questions don’t get repeated over and over?
The threads will be organized in a way that’s easy to browse and search, cutting back on repeat subjects.
Are you guys up and running again I can’t seem to get on the forum yet , ( New email n2sewn2@yahoo.com)
Not yet. Our aim is sometime next month.
Did we loose the “how to’s”? I’m a beginner and really looked to them for guidance.
We saved a lot of them in our How-To section: https://goo.gl/QXmDN9
I’m not sure if I changed my email or not before this happened.
I have been slack and not been on for awhile.
Always good to see change.
Haha, oh man… The forum went down sometime between me researching what kind of machine I needed and driving home from picking it up. Im a beginner so will use this time for practice, but cant wait for the forums to be back up so I can ask some questions to help guide my learning
Any date yet?
I do not see where on the main site to log in or access our profile , please help !
Do you guys have a goal date in mind for this to be completed? Anxiously waiting!!! 🙂
It’s pretty much done.
I have old detroit books for sale from 1980 thru 1994
