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.
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.
Thank you!!! After an accident, I'm in a "4-wheeler"/chair, and have been wanting to get back into leather working. Started as a kid making holsters and then an Edward Scissorhands Halloween outfit, the Crow, etc. Don't have too much of my original stuff left at 46, so I ordered some gun belts and holsters to tear apart with my 12 year old Son, so that I can show him how to alter and stitch them back up properly. Pricing is outrageous for the poor quality!!! Been hunting for better deals than Tandy, as well as better tools than I used to have. Looked at the black Friday deals today at Tandy, then found you!!!! Exactly the information I was looking for! Thank you again!!!
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.
Thanks for this great info! I could use some help from all you leather heads out there. I've decided to DIY a leather table cloth. I need a 9' x 4' sheet or hide that I could get this dimension out of. A couple of questions: 1) what leather would you recommend, please break it down for me I'm a newbie. (weight, temper, tanning type) 2) what would you recommend to weatherproof it with so I don't alter the color but it won't stain (also remember it's a table cloth so nothing too chemical heavy)? 3) what's the best value option that would still make a decent chic table cloth? I really appreciate the recommendations and help. thanks
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.😊👍
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.
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.
@@RoseAnvil Whatever you think best for a guy that wants to use high-end leather to make wallets, watch straps, boots... For me personally, I want to get into leather working and I come from the woodworking realm and I like to use the nicer wood pieces and tools to make boxes, bowls and so on. I'd like to learn about the best tools (buy once cry once) and skip the entry level stuff. Same goes for the leather and mats and other necessity. Hope that helps.
It would be really nice to see a short series of video's of you making something like a simple waistcoat (etc.). From choosing and buying the leather, measuring, cutting and everything else that's involved.
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
this is incredibly useful information, please do more of these videos!!! especially the bit about maverick as i've ordered from them twice and am fixing to order more here soon!!!
Ha, cats always try and be the most inconvenient. Also good to know there are some options. I remember taking our deer hides to Tandy to have them tanned growing up. Thought they were the only local suppliers. Thanks for the info Weston!
@@RoseAnvil Why please. Besides a tool position line I assume the groove buries the thread more and like the groove the heat also creates a channel. But if not why and when would you use each? Love you instruction and just bought some leather from you source guide.
Thanks for the advice. I will go dig through your other videos to see what other gems are in there from the business end of a leather shop. Keep them coming
Thank you for the great videos. I'm interested in leather working, but is quite overwhelming when getting info, you are a great source, and you don't get overly technical. Thanks
Springfield leather in Springfield Mo. Is a great place large inventory very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Great people.! They will cut almost any size and quantity.
Thanks for the input. These videos as well as your comments are definitely meant to help others gather information on leather and leather buying sources. I appreciate it.
How’s it going;! My name is Doug/ Ironworker Doug;! From the Bay Area, there is a place called the hide, in Napa big warehouse beautiful leather from around the world 🌍! And then the wife and I went to Springfield, leather in Springfield Missouri! Oh my goodness they gave us a tour in the back!!! So nice, if you ever get a chance to go. We also toured the arch monument in St. Luis! I believe Springfield Leather has a catalog! Thanks 🙏
you make so much sense people that have done this know how 1000 percent you are right on i always look forward to your videos ps made a harness for my cat but drove him crazy so back to a'natural
How about a series of videos explaining which types (and weights) of leather for various projects: belts (dress and gun), wallets, book covers, straps (musical instruments), pet accessories, vests, lady's skirts, shoes, sandals, gun holsters, bags, backpacks, moulded cases, etc. When I first started leather crafting, I was overwhelmed at the variety and ended up buying a bunch of wrong leathers for projects I wanted to make.
No Buckleguy? OALeatherSupply is nice too. OA actually reviews leather and gives you you a better idea of a leathers finish, feel, temper, and waxiness/oiliness.
I have a few videos that talk about those things and will probably be doing some more videos on that topic in the future. It's definitely good to know when you're first starting out.
Oh I know that you have. My point was simply to point out to other newbies that’s it’s nice to see actually videos of leather that you might purchase instead of 1 dimensional still shots online. Ian from OALeatherSupply.com does that, which I haven’t seen on other sights.
Thanks Rose Anvil, I appreciate your video very much. You are quite right, your information on leather is very valuable, and thanks for sharing. You impress me as the kind of gut who has a lot to share. So please continue to make your videos and let your light shine, as you share your knowledge and inspire us with your creativity. Thanks again Brother.
Thank you so much for all you split información.. and I just let you know I just started to follow your leather tutoriales so congratulations from Miami Florida 👍🏻 thanks
Maverick is awesome. Their location is on my way to work. There are always bundles of scraps for small projects (a wallet or two) and odds and ends for one-off projects (can’t justify a side for a pair of moccasins, right?).
Thanks for your input. These videos as well as your comments are definitely meant to help people form their own opinions and learn about different sources for buying leather goods. I appreciate it.
I appreciate your advice, I’ve been working leather in quite a primitive way for a wee bit and it’s time for my tools to upgrade. I had been getting British made hand tools off of eBay, which is a great way to keep craft alive, but hunting for the keepers is time consuming. Anyway, thank you for the videos, although I now realize my own work is not nearly good enough...damn
best place to by leather (if you are able) is Mexico at a "peleteria".. most leather is 50% less, or below 50% compared to the US.. I just bought a half a hide 2.5mm for $68 the hide that was held up in the video is about $80-$100. my wife's cousin is bringing me a full bull hide from Oaxaca Mexico for 2700 pesos ($140)
Very helpful and informative video. Without a doubt, you know where to source leather material to optimize your spend dollar. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. Looking forward to more of your well made "no nonsense" videos.
Liked and subscribed brotha. I went through the same hunts. One place I love to hit up is hobby lobby. They have a small selection but the have to bag sizes of tooling bellies and shoulders. AND a 40 to 50 percent off, online coupon always. So I pick up some decent hides there for 25 to 35 bucks. Not to mention remenet bags , garbage tools, rivets an basics. Good way to test the waters if some one doesn't know if it's their thing. Cheers!
I simply adore the passion you have for leather, I keep watching your videos and would like more, actually, more about the subject "jacket leather", from my broken English I got a nice idea on how to better check my "gear" and that's great, but how about analyzing e leather jacket and giving us more info about what to check and how? I have two Schotts, one is good, the other rubbish, a 30 years old Avirex sheepskin and the brother B2, but for my next projects I would like to have more info on the leather and how to check it's quality, thank you and keep up the great videos
I am glad you enjoy the videos. I hope I can keep putting out some that are helpful to you. Maybe I could do a leather jacket. If I am able to get around to it, do you have any you would like me to review?
@@RoseAnvil well it would be nice to do the same kind of comparison between old jackest, like from the late '90 and today "stuff", the more I look at leather products the more I feel more happy in buying an old product and restore it rather than getting this today "jokes" again, THANKS for all the passion mate ;)
Thanks for your videos, I hope to make myself a wallet in the near future, but hopefully, I can make a set of seats for my Sportster a reasonable time after that. I would've never thought that would be even remotely close to possible if it wasn't for you. The knowledge I have gained in such a short period of time thanks to you is amazing.
I used to manufacture furniture, a lot of leather furniture. We would be buying 50 hides just for one job from wholesalers and importers. We would get Italian leathers sometimes, they are way overrated, but you could still buy an imported Italian leather sectional from the wholesalers for than less than I could buy the leather.
Hey! I just found your channel and as a vegetarian that has been avoiding buying leather it has been really interesting to find out more about the process and make better decisions from now on. I was wondering if you have any video about the process from cow to leather? Is it always a by-product of the meat industry? Is there a breed of cows raised for their leather? Can you know how the cows were raised? I don't know if these are stupid questions, but I'd be interested in knowing more and I don't seem to find that info anywhere. Even shoe makers have told me it is impossible to know where the leather comes from. Anyway, great channel! Thanks for all the info.
Have you had a problem with Springfield Leather Co.? They have always dealt fairly with me and have great prices. They have flash sales which they notify you by E-mail, sometimes 2 - 3 times a week. I find that their prices are better than Tandy most of the time and they do not try to get you off the phone quickly, but take the time to answer all your questions.
More educational videos on leather crafting please. I like to do small handmade crafts at home (soaps, beard oils, mustache waxes, etc.) and I'd love to be able to make my own belts, wallets, and definitely some gifts for friends and family. Videos like these are great for noobs like me.
hi where would be the best place to get leather to upholster a sectional sofa, looking for decent pricing and also leather than can without the weight .
could you PLEASE make a video on where you would buy leather if you were in Europe so that leather enthusiasts like me that are not in the US or Canada can enjoy the hobby without the shipping costs surpassing the cost of the actual leather? Thank you so much, love your videos!
@@RoseAnvil Since you asked: I'm always looking for uncommon beginner projects. Anything that's not the typical half dozen items everyone has a tutorial for. I know that your channel has been focusing on the deconstruction more than the construction though, so not sure if that sort of thing would be off-brand. Also, what makes a good pet harness.
@@RoseAnvil Well, your cat's harness looks interesting. Been thinking about trying to make something like that for my 1 year old son with a handle on the back so I can quickly grab him when he tries to climb things. Pouches, especially belt pouches, are always interesting. Really anything that goes on a belt is interesting, at least to me.
Check out the stuff I make from the leather I buy here - bit.ly/44jXLNu
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.
we run a Tannery and provide finished leathers. if you're interested we ca. show you some sample products

Do you want to know how they do it or why they do it?

@@RoseAnvil Well, your cat's harness looks interesting. Been thinking about trying to make something like that for my 1 year old son with a handle on the back so I can quickly grab him when he tries to climb things.
Pouches, especially belt pouches, are always interesting. Really anything that goes on a belt is interesting, at least to me.
Love your channel, youre really nice to listen to. I appreciate the boot videos and im looking foraward to more cheap vs expensive leather items.
For sure. If you have any requests, let me know.
Great video!! Thank you for sharing this information.
I find information helpful you have in your videos.
Here in Calgary, Buckskin Leather is a bit cheaper than Tandy, but leather in general in this area is still too expensive for hobby purposes.
Love that little cat harness looks amazing
