I use Tandy for big stuff, but you pay through the nose for shipping, while 35 bucks at Amazon is free shipping.<br />Two tips for those just starting out: YouTube is your friend, and do not use leather for your first designs - construction paper or freely available cardboard should be used to get in the habit of measuring and cutting - don't waste your beer money and make yourself sad.Ardmorenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-66089091074807301582015-04-24T12:15:42.539-07:002015-04-24T12:15:42.539-07:00A lot of the tools on Amazon are from TandyA lot of the tools on Amazon are from TandyJames M Dakinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382139289994087931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-81927037806665992582015-04-24T11:10:12.886-07:002015-04-24T11:10:12.886-07:00You might check out Tandy Leather James.

This was many years ago, before internet and places like Amazon existed, so I can't say if it's the best around anymore, but it was in the 70's.<br /><br />https://www.tandyleather.com/en-usd/home/home.aspx?gclid=CJW8ka_Dj8UCFQZbfgodo50AQgWaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07074851290743440661noreply@blogger.com
