Green Man Leather from Ontario, Canada

[tat2]

Hello everyone, my name is stephen O'Ceallaigh from Caledon East, Ontario, Canada. I have been self teaching myself leathercraft for 8 years and been in business for one year. We all know how amazing this craft truely is! I have always been good with my hands. I currently make anything out of leather. I have been looking to find my own nice and market that I would become known for. currently I seem to make alot of belts/ teaching belt making workhops and leather covers for planners. I'm in the process of creating a construction and garden line of leather goods to sell as whole sale to local businesses.

I recently bought a landis 5 in 1 on ebay and very excited to start using it. I used to do everything by hand but once an order of 10 items is made I found the need to have the machines to speed it my prep time!

Very happy to join this site and welcome any questions of leather craft. I have alot of rare and old leather manuals which ive collect over the years.
