Members NewLeather Posted May 10, 2011 Members Report Posted May 10, 2011 I saw some Tandy leather strips 2" by 50" on Ebay, but not much info on them. Are they tooling quality? Light or medium duty? Anyone buy strips from Tandy before that can comment? Thanks Quote
King's X Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 I buy my belt strips from Tandy when they are on sale. The leather they have is quite fair in color, so I use these straps for dark dyeing color like black or chocolate brown. I have found that the flesh side is pretty nice and even, but it doesn't matter because I glue a liner on my belts. As for buying on eBay, I would be careful because you can be blind to what you get. I only buy leather on eBay if it sells for good deals. I also communicate with the seller my ideas for the leather and evaluate how they respond. Tandy is selling their 1.5" belt straps for $6.99 or $8.99 right now and I just purchased a half a dozen of them. I just store them and pull them when I need them. I hope this helps. Quote
