Putty Full Finish Calf
Hides

These calf hides are
about the same color as your filing cabinet, desk, and the bookshelf they
gave you when you took your new job
and were sure it was the
perfect career. The furniture smelled new in your cubicle, and you
were optimistic for the first time in years.
By lunch that first day
you knew you'd made a horrific error, but the car payment and apartment
rent
forced you to keep dragging
your carcass back to that miserable office for years.
Ready to relive that pain?
Here you go. Calf hides the same color as all that office furniture.
These are full finish hides,
very smooth and slightly glossy, firm temper.
Size is about 8 to 10 sq
ft per hide, thickness is 2/2.5 oz (1/32 of an inch)

Third
Quality White Deer Hides


These are full white tail
deer hides, from right here in the USA.
Chrome tanned, dyed white
(dye penetrates all the way through the leather), top grain (not splits).
These measure about 7 square
feet in surface area per hide and are soft.
We're calling these third
quality because, well, they just flat out aren't nice enough to be called
second quality.
Yes, they're useful for
crafts, but the hides have holes, bad spots, rough areas, defects, abrasions,
cuts, bruises, and bad attitudes.
Expect to find bullet holes,
arrow holes, scratches, cuts, and even tire tread marks, we kid you not.
The leather is 3 oz (a little
under 1/16 of an inch)., Very, very soft.
Yes, these are rough but
each hide has a lot of useful leather.

square feet of surface area.
$50 each, USA shipping included

VERY THIN DEER SKIVERS
Thin White Tail Deer
Hides


These are skivers that were
cut from chrome tanned white tail deer hides
This is USA deer leather.
Chrome tanned, dyed white
(dye penetrates all the way through the leather),
but they look a little off-white
to very light grayish in color.
The leather thickness ranges
from 1 to 3 oz (1/64" to a little under 1/16 of an inch).
Very, very soft. How
soft? Like an old t-shirt that you can't throw away because
it still has that stain
on it from that Kansas concert at the Hollywood Sportatorium. It's
special.
We're selling this leather
by the pound - see the bottom right photo?
It shows one pound of pieces

Thin
Black Sheep Hides

These are full sheep hides,
chrome tanned, all black, second quality.
Our thin black sheep hides
run about 2.5-3 oz in thickness, and they're available in two sizes, which
we decided to call Large and Small. That took some thinking.
The small thin hides are
under 7 sq ft. Both sizes are very soft.
These are suitable for garments
and many kinds of craft projects.
What's the catch?
Simple - this is a mixed lot of hides, hard to find any two that are exactly
alike.
There's a variety of surface
grains and finishes, but all are black, most are smooth. Some have
a hole or two.
We've priced them accordingly.
Buy them one at a time or in groups of ten hides.
These prices, as always

Oil Tanned Sheep Hides
Smooth or Bumpy
What you've got here are
oil-tanned sheep hides in a natural light tan color.
These look like smoke tanned
deer, a nice yellowish tan color with a rustic feel.
Oil tanned leather is waterproof
to some extent, soft, and each hide is about 5 square feet in surface area.
Great for all types of Native
American crafts. These have not been corrected or improved y the
tannery at all -
each hide is the way it
came off the animal. Bug bites, scratches, some staining here and
there, etc.
We have two varieties - smooth
surface, or natural bumpy surface (some call this Merino sheep), which
is a little wrinkly bumpy convoluted looking.

Smooth $20 each - USA shipping included
or get 6 for $100

Smooth Sheep
Bumpy Sheep
Lined or Unlined Pig
Hides
These were tanned specifically
for covering chair seats. There's a polyurethane (plastic) layer
bonded to the surface,
so these are wear and stain
resistant. Sienna is a brownish yellow. Walnut is brown (rocket
science). Harvest Gold color looks just like those kitchen appliances
you used to own.
in the 1970s. Relive
those great kitchen moments by using these hides to make stuff. Orange
looks like an orange. Imagine that. Terra cotta looks like
a flower pot.
The three in the left photo
have a lining on the back, either leather or fabric, to keep the pigskin
from stretching. That sort of reminds this writer of a Boy Scout
camping trip many decades ago
where the patrol leader
sent said writer hiking down the dirt road about ten miles to find the
bacon stretcher that had somehow fallen out of the truck on the drive into
the campsite.
Bacon stretcher, you ask?
Yeah, right, I get it now too. I didn't get it back then. I
walked, baby.
Hides run 3 oz in thickness
(less than 1/16 of an inch) and about 5 square feet of total surface area
(about 2 ft by 2.5 ft).
