Members jessebeckham Posted August 23, 2013 Members Report Posted August 23, 2013 Anyone planning on attending this event? If you are in the area I highly advise attending. I had only been working with leather a couple months when I went last year.... All that I have learned since has me kicking myself in the butt for not buying more while I was there! Any ways, its a great show, vendors from all over. And some really good deals on tools and leather! Here is a link to their page. http://www.bootandsaddlemakertradeshow.com/
Members mikesmith648 Posted August 23, 2013 Members Report Posted August 23, 2013 I am going.......most likely just Saturday Emergency Room Nurse by profession.......Leatherworker at heart!! Hoping to reverse the order in that one of these days!!
Members jessebeckham Posted August 23, 2013 Author Members Report Posted August 23, 2013 Yeah, Saturday is all that I'll make.... I'll be at a Museum Conference in Nebraska that week and will be leaving early so I can make it on Saturday! You can see where my priorities are! HA!
Members Ed in Tx Posted August 23, 2013 Members Report Posted August 23, 2013 Sent my entry fee in a couple of months ago. Started my shopping list already. Can't decide if I will go Friday or wait until Saturday and hope I can win one of the $250 certificates to spend at the show. Friday seems to be a better day as far as selection of some leather goes.
Members jessebeckham Posted August 24, 2013 Author Members Report Posted August 24, 2013 (edited) Yeah I'll be in if for the long haul on Saturday hoping they call my name for the $250. I was kind of ignorant to the leather world when I went last year, this year i am definatly going to have to leave the credit and debit cards at home and just take a responsible amount of cash. It's kinda funny, I posted this thread earlier today at work and had a flyer in the mail forthe show when I got home today! Edited August 24, 2013 by jessebeckham
Members Studio-N Posted August 30, 2013 Members Report Posted August 30, 2013 I finally get to go! "Out of my mind.....back in 5 minutes"

Members rgepting Posted September 17, 2013 Members Report Posted September 17, 2013 I will be there on Friday and some Saturday morning. I get to pick up some new toys on Saturday from Cobra Steve. A cobra 14 splitter, 10 ton clicker press, class 18 flatbed sewing machine. I save all year for this show you can get some great deals. This has also become a yearly trip for my dad and I. He is 80 years old and looks forward to coming with me to the show. Mcbrides steak house is a must do for us as well.
Members jessebeckham Posted September 17, 2013 Author Members Report Posted September 17, 2013 I'm going to have to avoid the cobra booth. Don't know if I can trust myself... Gotta leave the plastic at home too.
