Members Davy Posted October 15, 2008 Members Report Posted October 15, 2008 Off to Sydney today to get some leather , happy days !. NSW Leather Co is the place I'll be going , they have the largest range of leathers I've ever seen anywhere . This is gonna be great , I think I'll be like a kid in a lolly shop , the excitement is growing by the minute . Quote I'd be more apathetic if I wasn't so lethargic !!!!
Members Davy Posted October 16, 2008 Author Members Report 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 I'd be more apathetic if I wasn't so lethargic !!!!

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.
