Members dm110 Posted August 29, 2016 Members Report Posted August 29, 2016 (edited) I am returning to leather work after several decades of R&R. some of the prices of the things I used to get at Tandy are now outrageous. 1.polyester Waxed thread for one, "tandy product" ( comein whits, black & brown. in my area Tandy sell this for $20 per roll, and since they don't have a story in my area. it is $20+tax+shipping = outrageous price !!! this item is not that uncommon. I am sure that there is something on the market that would be as good for a lot less money, ( even if I have to wax my own thread! anyone have any ideas??? Edited August 29, 2016 by dm110 Quote

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.
