Does anyone know of a person or company that will repair an old leg-of-mutton case? I have several I'd like to rehab!

You might try and see if you can find an old fashioned shoe repair shop.

I will continue to do that but to date, no luck. Just checking in to discover a possible source. Thanks

You could try to do a Google search for a tack and harness repair shop in your area. There is always a need for leather repair in the equestrian and horse racing community.

I have a couple tack shops close to me, run by Amish Dutchmen.

Good idea, living in Amish country would be very cool. No such luck in my area, but there is a western shop I can check with! Thanks,

It is kind of quaint to see them farming with draft horses, and to see and hear the horses and buggies. But my road has a bit of a grade as it passes my driveway, and the horses strain to climb the hill. So they often leave a deposit on the road right in front of my mailbox.

They also have no regard for season or bag limits, and poach a lot. If it's brown, it's down! So you don't find much game near Amish communities. Quite a few people who post their land in my county do so in an attempt to keep the Dutchies out. But they just act like the No Trespassing signs aren't even there. They call us Englishmen or White men. I give my white neighbors permission to hunt on my land on the condition they throw out any Dutchies they see, and I do the same for them.

I actually saw a really attractive Amish Dutch woman once. One time only. That was about 25 years ago...

I have found a cobbler in my area that is attempting to do a repair. He has advised me that all is possible to repair except the bottom of the leg, too small an area to work. We shall see.
