mel b3 Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 hiya guys. her good self is having a clearout in her workshop . lots of stuff going to the tip , but ive asked her if i can put this on here before it gets dumped , as someone might find a use for it . its pieces of leather of all sizes , from maybe 12" x 12" down to very small pieces . most of this box is beige (it can be dyed) , but some other colours might be mixed in with it . most of this leather is whats been stripped from insurance repair jobs . some will be clean , but some might be dirty, some might be smelly (but is easily cleaned) . its leather from soft furnishings , and most of it will be about 2mm thick , and it can be glued or stitched together if you need something thicker . its not suitable to be used as tooling leather , but its suitable for making plain knife sheaths etc. the leather is free , but , id like the postage costs covered please. this box of leather weighs in at about 7kg , and could possibly cost up to £16.80 to post , obviously its free to collect from dy4 , or you could use your own courier. guys . pleases , please , please , dont ask me to start sorting through and finding bits and bobs of leather , as i just dont have the time. if this doesnt turn into too much of a pain , lots more boxes will be coming over the next few weeks . ill keep hold of the leather until the ad falls off the page before i bin it .
