Hey guys, I'm starting my leatherwork journey, I'm only 2 months in and I had the chance to buy some basic tools to get started and along with that I bought one of those bundles of random leather just to try if I stood a chance in this area The leather that came was horrible but It was enough to see I like this and so I want to work now with real leather. I already studied and know about which leathers I want to work with but I'm struggling to find a supplier in European Union (and not from UK), maybe its because everything I read and the channels I follow are from US. Can someone please share some suppliers in EU? If not possible I can always buy from U…

Hi everyone, I’m a cutting die supplier specializing in custom dies for leatherwork, and I’d love to hear your thoughts on using cutting dies in your projects. I want to understand what leatherworkers truly need and how I can improve my designs. Do you prefer pre-made dies, or do you usually get custom ones? What are the most important factors you consider in a good die? (Material, durability, compatibility with machines, etc.) Do you find dies with stitching holes useful, or do you prefer marking and punching them yourself? What die-cutting machine do you use most often? Clicker presses, roller machines like Sizzix, or something else? …

Has anyone been able to contact Campbell/Randall in Texas by email or the online contact form? I've probably emailed and sent requests through the online contact form 20 times in the past 2 years with never a reply or an undeliverable reply. Always end up buying elsewhere or finding an alternate path forward...I was starting to wonder if they've changed their contact email? I called in an phone order last week when I was in town, so they're obviously still in business. I received an email from them with an invoice from the same email address they post on the website. I replied back to it within 2 mins asking the cost/availability of a heating element and na…

Does anyone know of a source in the US for chrome "Russia" pattern leather? I can't seem to find anything suitable here. I know ILCEA makes it in calf, but I can't find any of it here either. I'd buy some from Grande Italia but the freight is a killer.......

Hello all...... Brand new to the forum, just signed up. I'm desperately trying to find the thickest leather available. I need at least 20 oz leather for a project I've been working on for aaaaaaaaaages. The vast majority of retailers out there sell up to about 16 ounce but that's it. Also, can you tell me which species I should be looking for? I've read the good old bovine has some of the thickest in the neck area but also heard (rumor mostly) that water buffalo and also wild boar have super thick hides. Can anyone help point me in a legit direction with some contacts for super thick pieces of leather I can experiment with? Thanks so much all and Happy Holiday…
