I made this mod because you never know where you'll spawn...like a tiny deserted island, and I didn't see a mod like this for the forge version I was using. The nearest cow could be a very long distance away making leather a rare commodity. But it's almost guaranteed you'll see zombies soon which means rotten flesh galore...and Leather is made from flesh..just cow flesh. So the logic is there. So fire up your REGULAR FURNACE in 1.12.2 OR any of the 4 cooking options in 1.14.4+ and throw in some rotten flesh and cash in on some useful leather.
You can also craft 9 pieces of either Rotten Flesh or Leather into a block for storage and back again as needed.
