Rawhide
Rawhide has been used for centuries in making drum heads, shields, lamp
shades, moccasin soles and many other projects. It also makes great thongs
and laces. Rawhide is very rigid because it has not been tanned, it has
only been de-haired and cured. When soaked in water it becomes pliable, allowing
it to be molded or shaped. During the drying process, rawhide shrinks,
stiffens and generally retains whatever shape it was given.
We have the following rawhides available:
Deer, Goat, Elk, Cow (natural or bleached) Buffalo, and hair on
Goat.
CALL for prices and availability.
Hair-on

Note: The samples show here are for reference
only. Since these are natural hides they will vary in color and
pattern.
Zebra, Tiger, Leopard
and Jaguar are dyed screened cow hides and not the real
animal. |

Convert
yardage into Leather footage.
Leather is measured in square feet, but fabric is measured in
yards.
The following converting factors are used to convert yardage into square
feet:
36" wide fabric: 9
45" wider fabric: 11
54" wide fabric: 13
EXAMPLE:
If your pattern calls for 3 yards of 45" wide fabric, multiply 3x11, then
add 15% for cutting loss: 3X11=33sq ft, add 15% or 5 sq ft:
33 +15%= 38 sq ft of leather.
