  1. Has anyone used Fieblings Acrylic Dye, hopefully in Light Blue and could tell me about it? Pictures of the results?  I have a customer who wants a light blue bag (I mainly stick to browns when I am dying) and I have no experience with blues. The closest color I can find is Fieblings Acrylic Dye, but I don't know what the results of that would be.....or if you know of another good dye that would yield a light blue color, please let me know! HELP!

    what I found is first quality buffalo bison robe /hide rug.     full size  750-850 each      8 feet x 9 feet 

    Where did you find those at? Ideally I am looking for skin, but that's not a bad deal for a rug!

  3. I've had some interest in some of the goods I've been making. I've already sold 3 bags to friends and some other small items. I am curious about those who have taken to making enough product to attend vendor/art shows exc... what are the steps in becoming an actual business. I don't fully understand the following;

    -Wholesale pricing - if you are not paying sales tax on your own purchases, then you charge sales tax on your products? What if not everything you use was purchased wholesale? Maybe I am over thinking this part?

    -How do you figure out if you need to charge sales tax?

    -Pricing your items to make a profit?

    - Any other advice, or resources on what to do... I've never done anything like this before.

    Thank you in advance!


  4. Looking for some general advice on working with deer skins....

    - What is your preferred method of cutting it?

    - Best way to punch holes without stretching it too much?

    - What is your favorite way to make lacing out of it?

    - Any other tid bits of info would be appreciated! 

    Thanks a bunch!!


  5. Hello, I am looking for leather works in the Tucson area that might be open to the idea of mentoring me. I am new-ish to leather work but would really love to learn from someone who knows the trade well. If at the very least I would love to make some local connections!
