Sole/Armour Bend Leather Needed

RenJunkie · Post by **RenJunkie** » Wed Nov 04, 2009 12:15 pm

Just looking for remnants and scraps. Practicing on pieces that take up between 1 square foot up to 2 square feet. So if anyone's got any just laying around gathering dust that you want to get rid of, I'd love to talk about taking it off your hands.

In the spirit of all the trade threads, I'm also willing to trade finished pieces for spare sole bend.

Thanks,
Christopher

Tandyleather is having a pretty sweet sale on their 13-15oz saddle bends if you need it for armour $65 for 20 feet. Then again, you probably already have the leather, you just need practice pieces, correct?

torvaldr can help out with saddle skirting around 8 oz same stuff he builds the scales and stuff out of. I think the buzubands are heavier stuff so scrap of that weight might also be available.

Sorry I do not use sole bend. Just 13 to 15 ounce saddle skirt.

Saddle bend? At that size it sounds like skirting to me. I'm not a fan of the skirting. But if it is a bend, that'd be awesome. I'll see what my store has. Should be close to them today.

Just looking for the sole bends. Also willing to take the 9/10oz sole bends, not just the 16oz I'm looking for remnants so I don't have to drop the cash on a whole double bend. Looking to practice making elbows and knees for SCA heavy fighting. I have a tendency to overbuild, and with the joints, I can't imagine that making it to tough and too strong is a bad thing. I know my conscience certainly thinks it's a good idea...lol

Thanks,
Christopher
