Leather for Quivers

[iori jones]

Does anyone know where I can get leather for quivers. Rawhide in particular. Years ago I used to get it from "Tandy", but whilst I"ve been able to find their American site, I can find no mention of a British site or shop.
Also , whatever happened to Yamaha Archery? I started out with a YTD and then a YTSL but since getting back into archery can find no mention of them!
Cheers,
Iori Jones

From WIKIPEDIA: From the 1970s Tandy operated a chain of RadioShack-style stores in Britain and Australia through its subsidiary InterTAN, under the Tandy name. In 1986, InterTAN became a separate entity though connections between them were still visible. For example, catalog number compatibility was maintained, so the same catalog number in both companies would refer to the same item.
In 1999 the UK stores were sold to Carphone Warehouse, and over the following years have either been closed, or turned into Carphone Warehouse stores. Some of these stores were sold to a new company called T2 which presumably stood for Tandy 2 and had continued the RadioShack style theme. Lately, many of these stores have closed down, though T2 still has a presence online and in some Moto motorway service areas. In 2001 the Australian stores were sold to Dick Smith Electronics (DSE), a subsidiary of Woolworths Limited. A number of these stores have been closed down or rebadged as DSE stores, but around 120 still carry the Tandy name.

thanks Andy for your reply, I"ve tried T2 on the web and there are acouple of firms selling leather products but of course that is not what I"m after.
Thanks anyway,

You could possibly try the yellow pages, and look up saddlers. Even if they don't have what you want, they may be able to point you in the right direction.

Have a word with Lez at Aardvark. I shot at Skye with Richard Holt and he has a quiver that was made for him by Lez. Worth a phone call.

I hear what you are saying,but if you do want to know who Tandy are in the UK now,they are 'the identity store' in Matlock and Northampton.
