Members Andy Posted June 18, 2008 Members Report Posted June 18, 2008 All, I had the chance to visit Peter at Waterhouse Leather today (Littleton Ma). http://www.waterhouseleather.com/ Lemme tell you the most important thing that came from this trip, I HAVE A NEW LEATHER SUPPLIER! Secondly, Peter and his Wife were cordial hosts, they gave me the "nickel tour" and he solved a few of my leather problems with some GOOD solutions. I left with an armload or two of hides! I cannot tell you how happy I am to have made this trip to visit his shop. (luckily he ships daily and is on the web for easy ordering!). I have a couple of photos of his leather stock, but they just don't do justice to the sheer volume AND quality of his inventory. Two Thumbs UP!

Ian Posted June 18, 2008 Report Posted June 18, 2008 Cool - I go in that direction all the time, and never knew they were there. Quote http://blackcanyonleather.net/

tashabear Posted September 6, 2008 Report Posted September 6, 2008 Dude. Wait... what? How did I never know about this? I grew up in Harvard! I've driven by this place uncounted times... Good to know. Now I can stock up on leather, yarn, and ice cream, all in one trip. I blame you for my impending bankruptcy. Quote
Members Andy Posted September 7, 2008 Author Members Report Posted September 7, 2008 Tasha, After getting my leather from Peter and his lower pricing, I make MORE money, so you can thank me for the extra PROFIT!

tashabear Posted September 7, 2008 Report Posted September 7, 2008 I'm not selling (yet), though... you might be waiting a while. Quote
MADMAX22 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Posted September 8, 2008 How is this stuff compared to the tandy selections. I noticed the pricing on average was onpar with the live oak selection from tandy. Is it about similer quality or better. Not bashing tandy in anyway here just trying to get a reference. Quote
Ambassador The Major Posted September 12, 2008 Ambassador Report Posted September 12, 2008 (edited) Oh no, they offer free shipping. Although I wonder how the quality of the hides are. When they call the hide firm, it concerns me a little.
