looking for info on places to buy bow hair in or near the uk! i’ve recently learned rehairing and want to get some practice in so it doesn’t need to be the most incredible quality, but also i know if i buy super cheap stuff it’s gonna be largely unusable anyway.

my plan was to order from the soundpost, but they only have the largest hank size in stock and i don’t have £400+ to spend on bow hair right now :/

does anyone know of a resource i can reference for looking at strads more decorated instruments? i know the hellier, the rode, and the greffuhle but im aware that there’s more. i’ve been trying to find info on them (and especially photos) but am struggling to find any! if anyone has any references they can share id be very grateful :)
