Does anybody have a good source for custom leather work?? Thinking of things like shell holders, slings, belts, etc. I've got a buffalo hide on its way and I'm going to need someone in a few months.

Sure give me a shout. I do quite a bit. A few examples are below.
I have a rifle sling that was just finished up not to long ago as well. It matches the honey colored elephant satchel and gun case. I can take photos of it if you'd like.

This leads to another question I have. I have a great big giraffe skin coming over. I don't want to know what it's going to weigh. However I would like to have a wingback chair covered in giraffe. Would be a decorative office chair. I have local upholstery guys but do I trust them cutting up my skin? Anyone have a company or person that could do this?

Getting the wheels turning, myself. I'm planning to have at least one of my buffalo back skins from this fall tanned for some leather goods
I couldn't even venture to guess on the square footage.
