Hello beautiful people! I'm Luke, welcome to my channel!
I used to be called The Local Leather Guy but have decided to make my channel more about me and my two passions - Cars & Crafts.
I hand make leather goods for a living and I'll show you in detail how I make those goodies.
I'm absolutely crazy about cars ! This happened after my first trip to Wingfield Raceway when I was about 7 or 8 years old (back in the 90's). I get really close to some very cool cars on a normal day and I'd like to give you guys a closer look at them.
I'll be building my personal car on the channel and taking you all on the journey with me.
Subscribe, sit back and relax!
Hope you enjoy the content :-)

3SGE Dual BEAMS swapped Nissan 200sx
SHE'S ALIIIIVE!!!
My 3SGE Dual BEAMS build is up and running and I'm super stoked to share this with you all!
This is by far a very special moment for me and the channel. If I'm not mistaken, at this point in time, this is the only S13 200sx with a dual BEAMS swap in South Africa!
This was one of the quickest builds we've done and I'm very grateful to have had the chance to do this. I'm very happy with the outcome and I know that we can only go upwards from here on.
I'd like to say a special thank you to my brother David at Phillips Autoworx for getting the car up and running and for sorting out the small goodies without hesitation.
Excited for the journey this car is going to take me on. Please subscribe and join me!
Thank you for watching!

Welcome back everybody! Felt so good to be creating again and couldn't wait to share this with you all. So as you can see, I sold my engine and gearbox!

Hello everyone! Guess who's back!? The ABF as you can see! So David has invested in a new (old) parts car which we have been hunting for, for quite some time now. As I said in the video, the car does need some TLC inside and I'm looking forward to tackling that! So for the time being, the ABF will be parking by me and I'm going to get a chance to do some cosmetic goodies to it which I hope you ...

Custom VW Harlequin Wolfsburg Steering wheel
Переглядів 2,2 тис.4 роки тому
Welcome back to a very special video! The title says it all, I custom make a Wolfsburg steering wheel and wrap it in Harlequin colors! All genuine leather of course. It was quite challenging getting the sizing correct as I didn't have a template to work from. It took a lot of finessing but eventually turned out pretty nice! When I had my Mk1 I really wanted a steering wheel like this but they'r...

Welcome back to another episode! Kicking off with some cars and craft content, I restored my buddies steering wheel on his very neat, Toyota Corolla Rsi 20valve. This car comes a long way.

Making a LEATHER WATCH STRAP for an OMEGA watch
Переглядів 5774 роки тому
Welcome back to another video in a very cold Cape Town! Today I made a leather watch strap for a very classic Omega watch. Initially I wanted to make one with stitch detail but because of the size of the strap, I didn't quite like it they way it looked. So I went with the classic style instead. This is a very easy to make and if you do end up making one, tag me on Instagram @thelocalleatherguy ...

We can't see the whole bag, just a section of it. Bummer
I just learned everything I needed to know in 1 video. Thank you❤
Nice, all meat and potatoes, no fancy expensive equipment,l required, that's the beauty of crafting things out of leather. Cheers!
This is the first time I watch a full video without sound and enjoy it. Thank you!
My question is about the cutouts at the beginning of the video. How would I measure for a 3" bottom?
Great video,many thanks Luke! 🥰I like videos showing how to do things and I don't like a lot of talking and talking.I am a leather bookbinder. And it is interesting to expand knowledge. I will prepare a bag and go shopping 😊🍊🥕🫑🥨
Please share your book binding skills
手好好看啊
I am sooo tempted to make my own suede tote bag. I love suede, and need a tote bag. But they are like 200-300 dollars in my country lol. Imma make my own! Although I have never done leather worl before and I am a very slow learner with things done by hand ugh
Reverse and begin Ning double stitches?
podrias informar que cuero utilizas? veo que es de vaca, pero no parece vaqueta o gamuzon?
What is the prong? Like diamond but straight
@@Sardukarmaster yes, diamond shape 5mm prong
the video is just great, thank you, I want to sew a bag according to your video, can I find out the width and height of the bag and pocket???
Very nicely done. 👜 Thank you for sharing.
Y el patrón ?
Nyc
Beautiful hands doing work most beautifully
Thank you so much!🙏🤲
beautiful bag. I like it. subscribed/liked
@@farhadfadayi7389 thank you!
May you share the measurements please?
great video. i have watched many videos on making a similar bag, but your video makes it seem a lot easier than the others. do you have the dimensions of the original piece you folded to start the bag? thanks again for sharing a really great video.
Hi there excellent video. What stitching do you use for the gussets ?
Thank you for watching! I hand stitch everything
You messed up with the french seams
Hermoso trabajo!
It makes me appreciate the purses that I do have, and it also explains why we are paying so much for purses such as Coach, Michael Kohrs, and some of the other high-end handbags that are hand sewn, and cost so much money. The quality is a lot better.
Michael Kohrs not so much.
I am enjoying making these bags. But I need to know what kind of glue you use. Please advise.
I use normal glue stick now. Hold it’s just enough for me to make my holes and start stitching👌🏾
Amazing video, thank you for this❤
Thank you for watching🙏🏾🙌🏾
Hermoso trabajo. Pero ya que compartis, si realmente lo haces de ❤ darias las medidas, eso es solamente mostrar lo que sabes hacer. Y no se engañen gente es facil de hacer solo practica.
I guite like the ridges, gives some extra grip-factor for the cab. Keep up the vids 👍
¡Muchas gracias!

Hi everyone! Don't be fooled . He makes it look so simple to create. This takes years of experience to make it look so simple. And he doesn't even have to say a word. Not a single word. Throughly enjoyed watching this. I ve have just subscribed. ❤
thank you so much!🙏
I made it in one night
We didn’t get to see the finished piece….
❤❤❤ please pattern
❤Nádherná ruční práce❤
This is a very spacious diaper bag. It’s working well for cloth diapers. I can fit a days worth of cloth diapers plus clothing and essentials.
"I saw this stitch on a Baseball" That's exactly what they call it too. A baseball stitch. Awesome work
You didnt even show the final product
Thank u foe the video do u have a pattern? Or cut size on ruler cut in beginning
No one tried to MacGyver it. Those holes are from the factory. They used vacuum forming to suck the vinyl down into the curve of the panel. That’s how they all look.
Thank you! Do you have a recommended source for getting patterns? And do you have a shop?
Me encanto sólo haciendolo quedó tan bien explicado y con ese final del logo de UA-cam como no suscribirme Gracias gracias gracias 🙏🙌🤗🇦🇷👋
