These fires now top the list of area burnt in Australian history

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushfires_in_Australia

Currently 5.9M ha.

Second on the list, the 1849 fires (5M ha) were fought on horse and carriage and had very few containment lines in place to control them.

Most of the other large area fires (notably 1974 [4.5M ha] and 84 [3.5M ha]) were mostly grassland fires that were caused by overly wet conditions turning the desert to combustibles.

The closest comparable event is the 1938/39 Black Friday fires [2M ha] which burnt out a 3rd of the area that has burnt now and had significantly less technology to fight them.

The arbitrary list of Australian suppliers

So, given that probably 90% of this sub is American, a lot of the information for us Aussies isn’t very relevant. Especially so since Tandy shut down its Australian store, the go to advice to start at Tandy can mean long lead times to get stuff shipped.
So, I’m going to share what I know with this sub for anyone who searches where to get supplies in Australia. Feel free to chime in if you have any other ideas.

Keep in mind I’m an amateur and my knowledge of the industry is nothing compared to someone who’s been doing it for a while.

First off is Birdsall Leather in Sydney. This is my go to because this is where I got my first lessons in leather crafting. The website is really old and navigation and search could use some work but the staff are super helpful and knowledgeable. Seriously, go in on a Saturday morning and they are fielding phone calls and answering questions like champions.
They are the people for tanning kangaroo and they have a good selection of colours.

Second is Tandy Australia . They ship out of America now. Lead times are really long.
Annoyingly the electrical tools are in 120v so you’ll need a step down transformer. Jaycar sells them for fifty bucks.

Leffler is based out of Melbourne. Delivery times are OK.

Gameco in Auburn is a weird company that sells commercial gas fittings. They are also suppliers of Bladesmithing tools like proper 72x2 sanding belts and knife blanks. It has a sister website called artisan supplies. Stocks are limited, but they sell sewing machines and tiger thread.

leather circle. Based out of Vic. Never been there, just stumbled across them searching.

Feel free to add anything.
