[Ponte Alto] Sapphire Joust

[Davitt il Bigollo da Pisa]

For strips of leather belting, buckles, and most 
other leatherworking supplies, try Tandy Leather. 
Unfortunately, they've closed most of their local 
stores (there's one on the north east side of 
Baltimore), so you can't just drop in. But they 
do have long straps in various sizes.

When they had local stores I would still stock up 
with more than I needed at the moment, just to 
have a few scraps to do a quick repair. I have 
not dealt with them by mail order, but they seem to have a good reputation.

Some people refer to them as Tandy, and some as 
Leather Factory. I don't know whether these were 
ever separate entities, but now Tandy Leather 
Factory seems to be the surviving entity.
