If anyone is interested, I put about 16 back issues of Leather Crafter & Saddlers Journal on Ebay

Thanks everyone. The company I was trying to remember was Muir & McDonald. At one time they had great leather. They went out of business

Art, Thanks for the reply and info. You seem to be pretty experienced with types of leather. What would you recommend for general carving such as spur straps, belts, and med. size projects? Isn't the veg tanned very light in color? By the way, I'm a "boater" too. Houseboat and pontoon boat. Thanks

Does anyone remember a leather supply ( or tanning) place in The Dalles, Or. I used to buy tooling leather from them in the 70's. I think they may not be around anymore. The leather was awsome and was oak tanned, with a reddish tinge. I got some leather the other day from Springfield and although it was Herman Oak, it was not great. Maybe I'm ordering the wrong thing (for belts, etc.) I'm just starting to do leather work again after a long break. I love the red tone and not the orange/yellow look. Any feedback? Thanks, JB

Greetings! I'd like to find a good sterling silver supplier for the silver centers that some are putting on belts, purses, etc. I know they have a special name but it escapes me right now. They are about 1/8" round. Anyone know of a good place to buy? Thanks!
