They were around 1/4" thick. Thin goatskin, and canvas should be within the realm of a good home unit. Seems everyone here has a machine at home. Then again, you said that you have time, so maybe there is a lot of hand stitching in your future Are you located in Singapore? Or is that just where it passed through on its way out? I'm not up on all of the different country flags Something else to look at would be covers for E-readers like the Kindle. Too bad the UK military wouldn't buy them from you. Could always market them to video games as authentic military grade hides. Big Gun, yes I am in Singapore. I've been looking at youtube videos of sewing machines in action. The aerostitch is something i would want once I have a steady job. I'm even daydreaming of clicker presses and dies! Talk about dreaming big. Anyway, thanks for all the great suggestions Quote
reddevil76 Posted January 26, 2011 Author Report Posted January 26, 2011 To all those who chipped in with suggestions, just thought I'd update that a week ago, the lady (Kim) who bought the leather received it and was kind enough to send me a pic of the first thing she did with them. I thought they looked great! Quote
