Information on Fish Skins: Fish skins are less of a pollutant than other leathers because only the scales need to be taken off. The canneries normally take skins and dump them in the oceans where they become a pollutant. There are now laws aimed to stop over fishing to conserve stocks, there is an increase in Fish Farms around the World. Protection of endangered species exists. 99% of all skins turned into leather are the residue & waste from the food industry. If skins were not used pollution would be increased by the huge amount of Offal that was disposed of. The Laws & regulations are not perfect & are not strictly enforced everywhere but they are better than nothing.

Back to the Videos the other 3 relate to the following subjects:

A Shoe Sole Production Plant for Sale.
A Shoe Production Factory on Offer.
A selection of used Leather Machinery for sale, Again from the shoe industry.
Note. some of this machinery like sewing machines & skiving machines could also be used for leathergoods. This again could prove a cheap acquisition of some machinery for the beginner or small company.

I have added some new resources to the 'Visitors Services' Page there is one traffic Generator that is worth considering. We all need visitors to our sites.

YouLucky Site. A brand new Traffic Generator, (Yes the title is a bit Naff) but it looks promising. There is a Free version & a Pro Version (You pay for extra features). The best part about this one is that you don't have to surf other sites to earn visitors to your site. You do have to recommend it to your own contacts though to get members on your own list, (so come on sign up under me) to get listed using the URL below Then get contacts of your own to sign under you to start your own lists. No it's not like a chain letter You also get other credits passed to you as bonuses. What do you get out of it? At the best more visitors & the possibility of some extra sales, Higher Rankings with the search engines. At worst nothing, no losses no gains. If you try it out like me using free membership you want loose any money either. To give it a go Click The Following URL. http://www.yourluckylist.com/index.php/Francis
