    Where to find leather furniture tacks

    I'm repairing a wing back chair and need about a dozen leather tacks. I thought they all look the same, so not sure how many different type there are to choose from. I'm matching existing tacks, but they are fairly standard antique brass looking. Smooth with not other detail.

    John,

    "The idea that "violence doesn't solve anything" is a historically untrue and immoral doctrine. Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst. People that forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and freedoms."

    Hi John, there is an upholstery supply house at 30th and Shadeland in Indy. The name escapes me right now but if you need it let me know.
