16 Hair-On Goatskins - Uk Only

[UKRay]

I have 16 super-clean hair-on goatskins (beautifully tanned by the sheepskin tannery in Buckfastleigh, Devon). They are soft like sheepskin, sweet smelling and ready to be made into whatever you choose.

Reason for sale: I'm allergic to goatskin! I didn't realise until I started working on one.

They would make an amazing fur tent carpet, a magnificent bed throw or simply use them as small rugs, seat covers or whatever you like.

Sensible offers or swaps considered.

I also have a couple of very nice used Dixon splitting machines for sale or swap and a 'universal' leatherworking machine for embossing, edge creasing or patterning - or whatever else you can think of.

I need the space and am open to sensible offers.

eMail me at ray@barefootleather.co.uk and we'll do a deal.

A couple of pictures might help Ray, and approx sizes of skins too.

I haven't worked with goat so I have no idea what size they are...

Maybe pics of the universal machine too in different uses, your description is rather limited.

I may have missed mentioning the bit about me nearly dying of goat allergy... Much as I'd like to oblige, I'm not about to get them out of the sealed plastic bag again and take pictures! LOL

FYI: Goat skins are generally between 6 to 9 square foot in size. These are a good mixture of sizes. They are direct from the tannery so some have a couple of small flaying holes that may need to be patched. Most are pretty fine skins. The price generally depends on size and quality. It costs around £25 each to get a goatskin tanned to this quality. Right now I'd be happy to get the tanning fee back in my pocket. There are 16 skins total and I'm wide open to sensible offers.

The machine is listed on my website www.barefootleather.co.uk - you are very welcome to take a look.

I understand the lack of pictures for the allergy.
