Whats a good place to get metal accessories for LW?

I'm looking to buy some brass D rings.

Or is Ebay the best bet?

Just looked through their website. They don't seem to use horween leather which is what I'm looking for.

They import different leather each yr. This yr have horween Essex leather. Unfortunately, all fully booked already.

U can always drop them a message in FB. They will reply u.

Just wanted to express my appreciation to rickysim for this listing. I've visited 1 and 2.
(1) Grand Leather had a very extensive range of leathers, but Mr.Ong sells by the entire sheet of hide. He also stocks threads, leather laces, and several hole punching tools.
(2) Main Traders has a smaller range of leather, Mr. Su is very patient and if he had the time he would be willing to teach you a thing or 2. They are also stocked with dyes and glues and other leather care products. They sell leather per foot.

Does anyone know where I can get leather craft tools? Such as the groover, beveller, gouge, burnisher, etc.

Just an update, mods please delete if it's been mentioned before.

2. And Malayan Traders are the same company, very friendly folks. They sell by the foot but by the piece. I.e. a hide might be 10ft at $xx per foot.
No nets or card facilities. Please prepare cash. :D

Hi all, I just realized that there's a leather thread around here!

I have some scrap leather that I can give away if you guys don't mind them.(you can get them from me at my convenience of course) I thought it will be great for those who are starting out and wants to practice on some scrap leather.

Hi KopiShake, one of the members did pm me about wanting them too. Perhaps you guys can decide which pieces each of you prefer and can meet me to get them.

Anyone knows where/who can adjust/redo/replace a snap button position on leather?

I think need shops that have some tool called snap fastener.

Thanks

I think we dont have a leather facebook page where we can discuss about all the leather stuff, sharing technique and suppliers. So i created one. it's called The Leather Society. I will be posting the addresses on where to get leather. Where to buy tools online and also who to contact to order leather overseas. But of course remember to chat over here as well.

Please feel free to join the Facebook group for more discussions.

Link is here facebook.com/groups/1619984324919476/)
