Here Welder this is not guite what your looking for but should help. This is the site where I found this http://www.brettunsvillage.com/leather/conversions.html . As a general rule, each ounce of thickness is roughly equal to 1/64 of an inch in thickness. As an example, 8 oz leather is 8/64" thick, which is the same as 1/8". Some simple examples of thickness based on US coins: A dime = 3 oz A penny = 3.5 oz A quarter = 4 oz A nickel = 4.25 oz So, dig this: 6 oz leather is like two dimes stacked one atop the other. 8 oz is two quarters stacked together. 12 oz is three quarters stacked together. i know this is not what size to use on what but shere helps you thinks of how thick the leather is. Russ ps all so look around the site thay nice pirce on some punces if you need them

here is my first two trys at a fly hook . let me know what you think of the top one Russ

well one time in the summer i used a not to high presher washer on and cleaned lot off fast then let dry for about 3 hours. Then I went back and oiled it good not shere if was the right thing to but did work and saddle is still ok. But if you do this not use a big powered one and hit at angle not a strait blast that might dig to hard in to the leather. Russ
