13-15oz sides are on sale this month for $65. They're normally around $150, so get on it.

Leather is measured in oz. 12 is belegarth minimum and quite thick, 1oz leather is very thin and 15 oz is very thick.

This is what you want. Yes it can be hardened. There are tutorials for it, but IDK where.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but a side is an entire side of a cow right?

The only Tandy store in Iowa is Des Moines, IIRC.

Really, just order the stuff online, it's easiest. It ships from Des Moines, you'll get it in a day.

* they gouge when they convert it to Canadian dollars. Even though the conversion is like 1 USD = 0.96 CAD. Still an awesome price though.
