  • Top Surface - Great place for free granite pieces for leather working. They don't have a web site, but this is a link to a Google Maps instance. They do granite counter top and flooring, but they tend to have a lot of scrap granite. Call them at (512) 467-0700 before going over. Go in the front office area and tell them you are looking for scrap granite for your leather working. They have 2-3 bins in the back that they fill weekly and told me to tell anyone in the guild that would like to pick up some pieces to come on out.

  • Ben & Greg Moody Rules of Leather working - Some very helpful hints and suggestions that could help all of us become better leatherworkers.
