I've done a lot of leatherwork and have tons of tools. I'm about to tackle my first sporran, but I've got a question for all of you that have used Tandy (or Leather Factory, since they're the same company now.) I've mostly only ever worked with belt blanks and smaller tooling leather pieces, and the larger hide pieces I worked with in the past were given to me.

Question: Tandy's website only allows you to purchase full hides. I certainly don't need a 30-square-foot hide at $8 a square foot (nor could I afford it!) So if I go into a store, will I be able to buy only what I need?

I know I could call Tandy tomorrow, but I'm awake and I know that I'll probably forget by morning anyways. Besides, I was already on the forum.

Thanks!
