Looking For A Kangaroo Leather Tannery In Perth Wa

[UKRay]

Can any one help me find a good quality kangaroo leather (for whip making and braiding work) tannery / supplier in or around Perth, Western Australia?

I'm also looking for veg tan leather suitable for tooling, also in the Perth area?

Any help gratefully received.

Best wishes and thanks,

Ray

Not me, Tony. My son now lives in Perth and has promised to send me some roo skins if I can find a source! LOL

The veg tan is so he can make some stuff for himself.

He tells me it is a great place to live though...

Ray, I have a saddler friend in WA, so I'll ask him. I know he gets his skirting from Toowoomba over in Qland.

They seem to have a good range of stuff so thanks for that. Have you personally dealt with Packer, Caroline? How did you get on?

Ray there are no kangaroo tanneries in Perth, I wish there was all our skins from government shoots are sent over east for tanning I've used Packer lace but I didn't buy it from them it was excellent quality but I don't use alot.

The best place to buy veg tan leather in Perth is http://www.leatherdirect.com.au/ your son will soon find out there aren't alot of suppliers but if he wants to see the leather in person Leather Direct is his best bet. Is he a northy or southy, Leather Direct is in Northy country, boundary is classed as north or south of the swan river at the Narrows bridge.

Let me know if you need to find out anything else.

Cheers,
