So what kind of leather work are you involved with?

I am a gunsmith but I am wanting to get back into making some gun leather, belts bags , just easy stuff that I can sell at flea markets and swap meets

Got any used tools you are looking to sell I might be interested.

At the moment I make cell phone cases, Kindle cases, iPad cases and the like.

I'm still rather new to the whole thing, so all of my tools are newish and still in use, heh.

I live in Alabama, and have for a LONG time, but since I was born in Savannah, I guess I can chime in here since I'm FROM Georgia.

I've still got family all over S. GA, and also in the ATL area. I don't get over that way much anymore, but you never know.....

I'm on St. Simons Island on the Atlantic coast roughly half way between Jacksonville and Savannah. The only other leatherworker I know down this way is Carlos Lopez who runs the Rancho No Tengo saddle shop in Kingsland just North of the Florida line off I-95. He's in his 70's and doesn't do "on-line" so I don't expect that he will check in on the Forum. :coffeecomp:

I know what you mean I used to have every leather working tool you could think of but sold it all about 25 years ago now I am finding my self buying tools a piece at a time and these tools are not cheap.

I am going to get started back tooling leather and make some holsters belts and cases

hopefully I can get over to tandy and pick up a half shoulder in a couple of weeks.after Iget this Long Rifle I am building finished and make me a stitching pony.

i guess for the type of cases you are making you are using 5 to 6 OZ tooling leather?

have you been to the store on bonny oaks?

the last time I bought leather was when they were down on broad street and not sure if the same people own the store on bonny oaks

maybe once I get my garage cleaned up and start pounding on some leather we can meet up sometime,

Sylvester GA here. Been making my own holsters and belts for the last 25 years. Sell a few at the firehouse. Great hobby.
