The Tip is 'Ask family & friends' After reading the Big Secret I began to ask my family and friends about Made in USA products. It amazed me how many of them were already thinking about the subject. After asking the question all of us began to exchange useful information about where to buy Made in USA products. This was a huge help and now my entire family bring me containers with the Made in USA label on them. I record this information for us by Submitting our Secret to Made in America Secrets. Now we won't forget and next time we already know where to buy. Looking is now a family experience and our friends too are involved. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Border States Leatherworks Border States Leatherworks Products are Made by Hand, One at a Time We are Proud to Show and Sell Our Collection Douglas Kidd -- Border States Leatherworks Douglas Kidd has 34-years of leather working experience. Twenty of those years exclusively on military reproduction equipment. Border States Leatherworks has a large collection of more than 3000 pieces of original cavalry and infantry equipment dating from the Revolutionary War through World War II. We have used this equipment to take patterns from and to see the style and method of manufacture, says Kidd. Only by 'hands on' experience can one truly reproduce a fine piece of work. This cannot be done by simply looking at a picture, or by guessing how it should be done. 'Close enough for government work' doesn't cut it on the field. Border States Leatherworks has visited many Amish harness shops in Pennsylvania and has learned a lot from them about hand work, where to use what grade, which type of leather to use, and how to finish a product correctly. Where better to learn the trade than from the people who still use harness and tack 365 days a year, said Kidd. We make our products by hand, one at a time, and we are proud to show and sell them. The quality of our products speak for themselves. Needless to say, your satisfaction is guaranteed with each and every product we make. |
