Weaver Leather Supply Report post Posted June 1, 2017 I just made another post in another sub-forum with the brochure and the early consignment listing and a little additional info. Here they are again. Any other specific questions let me know. 2017 Consignment Listing.pdf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrstn53 Report post Posted June 1, 2017 Day 1 is non stop leather all day long with webbing and other tack building materials. Last year at the end of day 1 they started on one of the tool tables for about 30 minutes. Day 2 is thousands of tools and basically anything you would see in a leather shop apart from leather, with machines starting a few hours into the day. The food at the auction is pretty good and the proceeds fund the local Amish school. As for evenings, I cant give you any help as I'm usually so tired from the day that I just head back to the hotel and rest in the nice air conditioning. There is a small town near weaver but there isn't much there. Last year I caught a movie that I wanted to see in Wooster and a few years back an Indians game in Cleveland. Hope this helps Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WildCow Report post Posted June 3, 2017 Thank both of you VERY much. My wife and I have only been married 4 weeks and this trip is part of our honeymoon. We are bout 50is and I have been doing leather for a while. This will be my first trip to this auction so I truly thank you for all of your input. I look forward to seeing you there.
