It's ok to give Toaster cuddles on camera!!

Oh hai Toaster.

Toaster with a leather harness made my day

That's good info. I've never ordered direct from a tannery. One detail I've found extremely helpful is using District Leather and Rocky Mountain for splitting leathers down to the size I need. I'd never be able to do it cleanly and they will do it on small panels for a good price or even free. Total game changer that ups the quality of my projects.

Springfield Leather Supply a great supplier of all kinds of leather including exotic leathers

I thought "That's a weird looking bundle of leather". Then I realized it was the cat lol

Really great information. I just get into leather crafting and I bought leathers from both tandy and rm leather supply. I saw people recommend craftsman oak from tandy. I bought a 4-5 oz piece and it cost more than expected. I also bought a chrome tanned leather from tandy, but I did not make a craft yet. Two weeks before, I bought a piece called buttero from rm. It was insane! It has an unbelievably good smell and it is much easier to work with. I wish I have had this information before, saves a lot of money.

I was buying of Amazon for my first few pieces and just recently ordered a couple shoulders from Tandy online (Since their closest store is a 2 hour drive for me) But as I get more into this hobby I'm glad to know I can find information easier than you did, because you shared it with us. Thank you.

For sure. I definitely agree with everything you said. Rocky mountain Leather is becoming my favorite store when buying Leather. They carry Pueblo leather. Good video. Thanks.😊👍

[DalesLeatherworks]

[mobilemel]

Thank you! I did exactly what you had mentioned there at the end & the amount of info online is overwhelming 😵‍💫 so I really appreciate your video. 🙏

These are three of my top four suppliers! The fourth is a local place I am lucky enough to live near that is an industry supplier. I am happy to have the confirmation. Thanks for the great videos.

I work at Wickett & Craig! You can totally get smaller sections of leather. Although it’s still gonna be a couple square feet.

Tandy varies from store to store.
The baseline location will have all your tooling and supply needs, as well as a reasonable selection of leather.
Larger locations (such as the Sacramento CA store) is a full warehouse with a huge selection of leathers.
Coupled with a buyer's club membership etc it quickly is on par with any specialty shop, you get to hand pick too.

Toaster really does have a nice harness. When a man really appreciates his comrade, he does stuff like that.

[maddawg]

Yes, these are good please do more of them. Especially stuff that beginners need to know that want to work on the higher end stuff.

[BLTV_Photoshop]

Great stuff! Learning a lot about leather and shoes from you. Thanks! 👌

I appreciate the inclusion of Maverick I've been thinking about buying from them sometime, but have been worried about about what I might get.that concern is lessened, now. Also, I really enjoy your videos. Please keep making
