equi1 Report post Posted June 17, 2012 Hi! I am new to leather working and absolutely love it! Im trying to learn about buck stitching thread. I have viewed the video from Tandy on how to buck stitch but I was wondering does anyone out there have an idea on the material used, like is it called buck stitch or something else and also where is the best place to get it. I love this site, everyone is so helpful. Ive mostly taught myself how to do some leather working but Im still learning and still very green lol! I appreciate any help anyone can offer me! Thanks Equi1:rolleyes: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sylvia Report post Posted June 17, 2012 Traditional Buckstitch is done with white or cream leather thong (lacing). Tandy has discontinued carrying it but you might get lucky and find some in their clearance bin. There is one source still available... just have to remember who it was. Ok, here you go... http://y-knotlace.com/yknot-store:21568/show/id:25676/ You'll also need a "Thonging" chisel or two (typically 1 tine and 4 tines) and a locking lacing needle. Have fun!
