tazzmann Report post Posted March 21, 2008 I am looking for a small piece of fur on cow hide in either maroon or white so that I can dye it maroon. Anyone know where I can get some? I don't need a whole hide, just about a 4 inch by 6 inch piece for a knife sheath. I tried ebay and google, but no luck. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crystal Report post Posted March 21, 2008 I did a quick Ebay looksee and found Item No: 150228078017 from an Ebay seller by the name of pennyfabrics. Do a search for that item number and then click on the right for other seller items. There seems to be a fair amount of hair on hide pieces and scraps from this seller. (I haven't bought anything from this seller.) Don't know how to post a link... poor computer skills... sorry. Crystal Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tazzmann Report post Posted March 21, 2008 Thanks! I think I was searching with the wrong term. The only issue is that I need it within the next few days, but it may have to wait if I can't find an alternative. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He has nice stuff, although it's been a good while since I got anything. I remember getting a fairly large piece of hair-on to cover a targe, but I can't remember if I considered his postage charges out of line or not- I don't think so, but, as I said, it's been awhile. (I always try to factor in the cost of postage when dealing with ebay- too many jerks try to get out of paying sellers' fees by jacking up the shipping charges {'...recycled scrap cardboard costs money, ya know...'} so you end up paying more in postage than you'd spend by dealing with tandy or another supplier or dealing locally).

Elliot Report post Posted March 22, 2008 Try Oregon Leather 110 NW 2nd Portland Oregon 503 255 8818 They may have what you want. Their prices are better than Tandy even with the Wholesale club discount, quality also better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duke Report post Posted March 22, 2008 you have a business account so tandy prices will still be better than oregon leather. although oregon leather has a bigger scrap bin. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
