Thanks guys. I was leaning that way too, but when I saw tandy post a clearance price of 69.99 for their 179.00 kit I started to second guess. I will go with the Springfield kit. Thanks again.

Hi, I am wanting to get started in leather crafting as a hobby, but I can't decide which beginner's set to go with. I am looking at the tandy kit https://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/en-usd/home/department/starter-sets/55510-00.aspx for 69.99 or the Springfield kit http://springfieldleather.com/29315/Starter-Set%2CProfessional%2CDelux/ at 135.99. I am trying to definitely trying to get the most bang for the buck here, but don't want to cheap out too much either. I am sure as I progress I will be upgrading tools, but I am hoping to find a starter kit that will last me a while. Any input you guys might have is greatly appreciated.

Wow I really love what you did here with the inlay as well as the two directional basket weave! Nice work!
