    For the leather workers in this group. Where do you buy your leather from? My son is showing interested and got a starter kit for Christmas. He also got a large box of scrap from a friend of mine but it is very thick and hard to tool and cut. I would like to find some lighter cheap material for him to learn on.

    Putting together an archery shop cart and asked my Dad to make me a wooden top for the cart I snagged at Lowes. He finished it while we were in Texas visiting my son and I got the laser to work personalizing it this afternoon. Poly goes on tomorrow then the Last Chance Power Green bow press will get bolted down to it. It's 18"x 36" and a mix of woods my Dad had laying around his shop.

    Please post a pic of the finished cart my friend. Very curious to see it. I need to do another cart for a kid.

    This is what I get, it is a pretty big piece and has always been very clear
