There are at least two: Griffin's Leather who helped me out opening weekend when I broke a strap
on one of my elbow cops. There is also Brett Smith from T-Star leather I believe he calls his shop.
Both are very reasonable and great guys. I purchased my wide medieval utility belt from Brett last year and love it! :)

Sir Brian, do you remember off-hand what he charged you for his service?

He didn't want to charge me anything but I insisted he accept $15.00 and I explained that with convenient and crucial services one should expect to make some recompense and his expedient services certainly fulfilled both criteria!  :)
