Construction Leather

Michael,I have been making toolbags for construction related tools for years.I feel that if you have the dimensions(ie.photocopies of the knives etc.) so that a proper sheath bag combo can be designed.In other words you have to know what you want before the bag can be designed.I have made cases for butcher knives for storing in a drawer,I think that a bag/case combo that looks good and allows good access to your knives etc. is what you need.Please e-mail me with pictures and dimensions.I am sure we can come up with something.

Excellent tools,I have a set of the setters for grommets and such.Really good selection of leather and hardware.(depending on who you ask).The best thing is FREE SHIPPING.

Do a search for solid brass snaps on e-bay.one of the major players on there( cant remember the name) has a very extensive supply.Bought some myself and they work very well and they set beautifully.They come in a variety of colors too.

Looking for a made in usa stamp and someone who makes custom logo stamps.Thanks,Construction Leather.

I am making and selling a bunch of american made latigo leather belts.I need a made in Usa stamp.Used and cheap is preferable,but would also like to find someone who makes logo stamps for a reasonable price.Thanks Construction Leather.

Not the one I was talking about.That one is called a draw guage made of aluminum.I dont like those.The one I am looking for looks just like the wooden strap cutter that Tandy sells .

does anyone know where I can find a new or slightly used aluminum bodied strap cutter.My wooden one broke and I need a better replacement.Thanks Construction Leather.

does anyone know a company that makes colored letter snap conchos.need red capital A.Thanks

saw an item on e-bay several years ago,it was a machine with adjustable rails that would punch holes in belt leather.You could set the spacing to whatever you wanted.Just wanted any info,or if anyone has seen one out there that is for sale.Thanks,Construction Leather.

Matt,Try www.brettunsvillage.com.I have bought 5\6 oz. leather from them beforethat was dyed all the way thru,I am assuming this is what you mean by struck.Matter of fact I just started a laptop case that is chestnut 5/6 oz leather that is dyed all the way thru.If you give him a call at 207-782-7863, He will probably have something that you are looking for.Check out his hides and sides page and look at the black 7 oz hides that he has.Depending what you make from this,this is an awesome hide and for 70 bucks you just cant beat it.Good luck and tell him that greg says hello.Thanks,Greg.

Try Brettuns,They have a nice 3.5-4.5 oz leather on their hides and sides page.Free shipping excellent service.Find them at-brettunsvillage.com.Or call them 207-782-7863.

If you want belt leather in hide form,check KLC leather on e-bay.Thay usually dont have them shown but they always have them in stock.781-331-2807.They are in massachussetts and they have some of the best that i have used and their prices are good too.They have black 7/8 oz hides in 17 sq. ft for $84.(last time I bought from them)I wouldnt buy premade belts,make them yourself and save money.All you need is a straight edge ,a cutting table,a strap cutter,a pack of belt snaps and a setting tool kit from tandy and a few other small inexpensive tools.It may seem hard at first but you can reduce a hide to a pile of belt blanks in very little time.Good luck,Greg,Construction Leather.

Do a google search for sunbelt fastening products or purse closures.I ordered some frames from them for gatemouth tool bags and i think that sunbelt had a frame for doctors bags.If they dont im sure that they can tell you who does.

Go to www.brettunsvillage.com.I had the same problem with leather unlimited years ago,they didnt even call to say that they had them on backorder.Just left me hanging.The one nice thing about brettuns is that he will walk back into the warehouse with you on the ohone and lay hands on the item that you want.No guessing as to whether he has it.Another supplier is KLC leather.They have a good variety of hides and while they do charge for shipping they are fast and the quality has been good to excellent.

Whoops, got the address for brettuns wrong.Tried to edit it but it went back to the original.Check out their site at www.brettunsvillage.com,Also if you need any trunk parts they are a good source to check.Sorry about the mistake .Thanks,Greg at Construction Leather.

I used to use steel tube rivets on my heavy duty tool bags and on my dog collars and leads.I have found a supplier of solid brass tube rivets that have an antique brass outer finish.I threw out all of my other tube rivets.You can find these at www.brettunsvillage.com.

If you have no retail store in your area,I would suggest buying a tandy kit on e-bay.If you then need leather check out www.brettunsvillage.com.they have a wide selection of whole hides and scraps that a beginner could use without spending too much.Good luck,Construction Leather.
