Members rickeyfro Posted August 2, 2008 Members Report Posted August 2, 2008 Anyone know where to get 5/32 or 1/4 inch smooth leather lace, other than kangaroo? I had a bunch of spools of 5/32 from texas lace comp. but it appears they are no longer in business. Rick Quote
David Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 I think most folks using the wide lace are using kangaroo. Dave Quote

Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted August 2, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted August 2, 2008 This brings up a question that I keep forgetting to ask. What weight leather should be used to make lace? Quote Mike DeLoach Esse Quam Videri (Be rather than Seem) "Don't learn the tricks of the trade.....Learn the trade."

Drac Posted August 2, 2008 Report Posted August 2, 2008 tandy has 3/16" wide lace if that helps. it's what I use when doing turksheads. Quote frissenfrassenmussafrussen...
Billy P Posted August 3, 2008 Report Posted August 3, 2008 To ask Oaks, question again, what weight leather is best to use to cut your own lace? Thanks Billy P Quote Billy P SideLine Leather Co. Leatherworker.net/Forum
Members Rawhide Posted August 3, 2008 Members Report Posted August 3, 2008 Most folks that cut their own lace end up splitting it anyway, but for those who don't, a 2/3 oz should suffice. Marlon Quote Marlon
