We are starting to pack tools for our booth at the Pendleton Leather Show coming up at the end of next week. I have missed the last 2 shows because of work schedules but ready to be back this year! If you are in the northwest please check it out. I can make it worth the trip with just free rulers, stickers, and candy. Seeing tools, machines, leathers, and hardware is a bonus. Here is a link with more information - https://www.pendletonleathershow.com/ We hope to see some of you there!
