  1. Rose red lamb skin. Approximately 3.5 sq ft x .6mm thick. This is another super soft leather. Gloves, small articles. Used for luxurious jackets. $20.00 plus shipping This item has sold.
  2. Bright red lamb skin. Gloves, small articles. Slightly more than 3 sq ft x .6mm thickness Soft luxurious leather. Makes you want to take it to bed with you, lol. $20 plus shipping
  3. Italian Lazaro leather. I have two to sell. Both 5.5 sq ft each. 4 to 4.5 oz This is a fine leather I have used for cell phone cases primarily. Good for most any mid size product. $50 each plus shipping
  4. Veg tan. Those two leathers are cordovan colored cow cow hide. I have some cordovan horse hide. Will need to think about selling it at this time.
  5. I have many more to show.
  6. Full Grain Sole Bend Measures 48" x 25" x approximately 1/4 in thickness. Intended for soles of shoes and heavy work aprons. $90 plus shipping
  7. Mission Grain Pigskin. Contains 10.1 sq.ft. and is .6mm in thickness. Great for wallet interiors and small items. $30.00 plus shipping
  8. Another cordovan piece. This one is great condition and has more of a red/brown color. Measures 33" x 36" x 3.7mm thick $50.00 plus shipping
  9. Deep cordovan color leather. I have made belts and dog harness from this leather. This skin has wrinkles on about half of it. Working dogs don't need A+ leather for their harness. I used the wrinkled portions for that purpose. Best portion measures 30" x33" while wrinkled portion measures 30" x 25" (4-5oz thickness) 2.25mm thick. $75.00 plus shipping
  10. Kangaroo leather will last forever I think. I have made many small items from it as well as wallet insides.
  11. Spent five days in hospital up to almost Christmas. Too many things going on to elaborate at this time. I desperately need to get rid of lots of leather tools etc, I have including hides. Going to hang onto my electric sewing machines. I have quite a few Kangaroo hides of different colors. Will try to list them as I can get them suitable for photos. It has been a long journey for me since 1953. It has come time to make it possible for someone else to enjoy what I have been blessed to obtain. Will try to make the items attractive in price without giving away the house. Ferg
  12. You should be able to play with your settings to minimize the charring. I keep a box of what would be throwaways for trial and error work. lol
  13. Chuck, Advantage I see? I keep the laser file, engrave to leather anytime I wish. The engraving should take about 30 to 60 seconds. The drawing is precisely the same every time.
  14. You can get a trial version of LightBurn and you won't have to do all this fiddling you guys are doing. Yes it has a learning curve. I find anything worth doing is doing it with the right program or tools. Personally, I hate InkScape.
