Need tips on buying leather....
« on: January 05, 2012, 07:00:54 pm »
Hi everyone,

I am looking to build a quiver and need to buy some heavy leather 7-8oz . I was wondering if anyone had any places online that they get leather from that you would recommend.... I only need a small piece around 18x30 inches or so and it is hard to find something that size. I would post this on the trading post but I know that there isn't any talk about cash there and am really only looking for suggestions... Thanks.

Jon

P.s. If you have something like this that you don't need I would appreciate a pm if you wanted to get rid of it. Thanks.

There is a local leather shop near me.  I bought leather for another PA member there once.  PM me if interested.  I'll be going thru there Friday mid eve.
