I did once when they were Etsy, when I went back to them for a 2nd thing they said their Etsy account was closed & to make payment direct into a Russian bank account, I was not comfortable doing that so did not get the thing & this was pre the Ukraine invasion, you might want to check sanctions in your country to see if you can order direct.

Yes Essex is a pleasant place if you ignore some of the population EBM is electro body music, think industrial goth, yep it’s a bit niche -

HaloJones replied to BDAZ's topic in 3D Printers and Lasers
So it depends on which type of chromium was used, which will depend on where the tannery is, if you have that information you can make an informed decision. -

Best places to get the finest Veg Tan shoulder (UK)
HaloJones replied to cordwainerbec's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
Jt bachelors in London would be my go to, however they don’t have a website with stock listings so you would need to go in person, from my last visit I recall dyed veg tan in green, black and red, May have been other colours All in various thickness and they have a splitter on site -
Good first project, and if you are anything like me: every project seems to demand a blood sacrifice!

Depending if you are near London, check out JT Batchelor for leather supplies, they don’t list on a website but if you can get there In person it is a true Aladdin’s cave of leather, you will find pretty much everything colour option going and at reasonable prices I tend to go there via train select every thing I want & they will ship it home for me at a bargain cost of £13.50! As I always seem to buy more than I can carry
