Davy Report post Posted October 16, 2008 Heres some prices on what I got . Wallet lining - Kid / $3.29 sq/ft , calf / $3.29 sq/ft Natural Embossing dble butt 3.6mm - $22.28 sq/ft , Natural Embossing side 1.5mm - $10.84 sq/ft . These prices havent got tax included yet , which is 10% . And , i'm not sure what the thickness is in ounces . I've seen a conversion chart here somewhere , does anyone know where it is so that i can download for future reference . ( how you can measure thickness by weight beats me . And you reckon we're upside down here in Aus ! lol ) Cheers , Dave . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We don't measure leather by weight, here in the UK, any longer, which would appear to be the same for you in Aus. I'm sure there's a con. chart somewhere, but until you find it here's something to get on with.
