Actually, if you can manage to *make* a pair of gloves which fit and 
are serviceable then you have my utmost respect. Reminds me of the 
skills needed to cooper a barrel. The more you look into it, the more 
complicated it looks.

I have trouble with some rubber gloves. I have one finger (right hand 
index finger) which always seems to stick when I try to pull them off. 
It must be slightly thicker. The last pair finally weakened at the 
point until I pulled the finger off. :-)
