Members zckry Posted July 9, 2016 Members Report Posted July 9, 2016 Decided to break up what I have left over from my W&C English Bridle Chestnut hides into 12"x12" squares if anyone wants one! These are cut into exactly 12"x12" square - 1sq. ft. If you want bigger pieces just let me know and we can work something out. The leather is W&C's English Bridle that has been split to 4-5oz. and has a smooth refinished back. We used this weight to make our wallets and watch straps. These are $20/each shipped in the United States.
Members EricIsaiah Posted July 11, 2016 Members Report Posted July 11, 2016 $20 ft2?? W&C's highest price per square foot is less than $10, if I recall correctly.
Members particle Posted July 11, 2016 Members Report Posted July 11, 2016 Seems pretty fair to me (remember, price includes shipping). Comparing price per SF for an entire hide vs smaller pieces isn't exactly a fair comparison. http://springfieldleather.com/Piece-Bridle-English-Tan-1x1 Eric Adamswww.adamsleatherworks.com | Facebook | YouTube | Instagram
Members EricIsaiah Posted July 11, 2016 Members Report Posted July 11, 2016 Perhaps it make a bit of sense in the case where you only buy one ft2. The deal gets way worse the more you buy.
Contributing Member JLSleather Posted July 12, 2016 Contributing Member Report Posted July 12, 2016 Perhaps he's very skilled at measuring 12". "Observation is 9/10 of the law." IF what you do is something that ANYBODY can do, then don't be surprised when ANYBODY does.

W&C's highest price per square foot is less than $10, if I recall correctly. You are correct, but W&C doesn't sell in a single sq. ft. This is for people who need a smaller section but don't necessarily need a whole side. To show you a comparison:http://springfieldleather.com/Piece-Hermann-Oak-3-4oz12x12 That is the same price, and it's not english bridle, not dyed, and not refinished on the back. As mentioned in the main post, I'm more than willing to make larger pieces and cut down on the price. Please keep in mind this price is shipped to, shipping isn't free for me Edited July 13, 2016 by zckry

It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
bikermutt07 Posted July 21, 2016 Report Posted July 21, 2016 I received my 12x12 today. It looks awesome. I even got some surprise scraps. I see some card holders in my future. The service was speedy and excellent. Very happy. Thanks. I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later....
