    Hello folks! I'm new to this computer stuff so forgive me if I don't catch on to the lingo. I've been checking out all the talk on this forum and it sounds like I've landed among a bunch of kind and knowledgeable people.I have an up and coming leather shop where I'll want to make the things I've made for myself and others in the past. I'm a trapper, hunter, fisherman and also a historical re-enactor who has made all my own leather gear. What I need to find at this time is a canadian source for wholesale belt buckles, any and all info would be greatly appreciated, Thank you! (What's a Topic Tag? I did say I was new to this stuff!)

    Hello stangman645, I'm new to this myself but I bought an old refurbished HEAVY DUTY Brother sewing machine for sewing leather and found it's good for leather up to about 4 oz.The fellow I bought it from said it will sew 2 thicknesses of 10 oz leather,which it does but this is when you have the machine going full pin.It's very hard to control and I believe it's hard on the little motor. After doing more reseach, I found out that you want a commercial /heavy duty leather sewing machine with a servo motor which has the power and control to handle heavy leather. I like the info on the cobra machines that have a motor, and I also like the tippman "BOSS" that is handpowered which would be handy, especially up here in the bush where we don't have power. Anyway, check them out ,see what you think, hope this helps and take care.

    Thank you for the info, Samar,I understand the thickness in millimeters as we use the metric system in Canada too. I'm just a little bit old school and like the weight also. (3.00 to 3.5 mm is about 8 to 9 oz weight) You wil be in our prayers and again,you do beautiful work!

    Hello Samar, BEAUTIFUL work!!! I am just getting into leather work and am starting a small online business. I used to be a competitive wood carver and have won my share of trophies and ribbons. My question is, what leather weight do you use to achieve this type of depth and definition? Again,fantastic work!
