A wallet anyone?

[Rollnick]

hi all.

i know there are real craftsmen among us. I was wondering if anyone would be able to make me a leather wallet, made from nice leather, not the cheap stuff i find every where!

Quotes??

Cheers.

Jake, .. why don't you phone up the identity store (01604 40 71 77)and get a catalogue and price list off them ... they have a selection of leather wallet kits that just need assembling and stitching

what's up? .. did you lose your wallet?

I've done a couple in calfskin to date - I definitely prefer working with the heavier weight leathers. The thinner leathers are much more prone to stretching.

Ask Dwayne Puckett, a http://www.armoralleather.com

I bet he can make you one!

:rolmao: no i didn't lose it :twak:

I might give that company a ring, it's just that no-where seems to do real nice leather wallets anymore!

http://www.pearcetandy.com (aka The Identity Store) are in Northampton. Is this another one I haven't heard of?

Cheers Wayne and Peter. I called the company Mushi recomended, but no-one picked up, will try again.

I don't think there are many staff there, and I understand they can get carried away with supporting customers... ;)

They know my voice on the phone now. Should I worry?
