I love your laugh. I found a couch someone was throwing out and I took the leather off of it. What a project for my mandalorian build. I also do a lot of kit bashing and I save all the clear plastic packaging off everything I get they come in handy for making windscreens for my spaceships or anything for that matter. Love your channel.
Nice tutorial for beginners. Well-done. One helpful suggestion I might make is for you to use a thin version of the craft foam for your templates. It better reflects the leather thickness, so will help ensure your template measurements more accurately represent your design intentions. I do it all the time and greatly helped me reduce measuring 'accidents' :-D
For sure I will do that one day, I did buy a bunch of old video game guns that I'm going to modify but I know what you mean. Just buy a few interesting objects and create a prop. I did make props from stuff I bought at the supermarket so for sure it is in my wheelhouse! thx for engaging! Super Market Props: ua-cam.com/video/utwMg-NhnxM/v-deo.html
They may have been leftover pieces from one of his previous builds. Do you know any electricians? I would probably just use industrial fuses. www.homedepot.com/p/GE-60-Amp-Cartridge-Type-Fuse-2-Pack-54226/203728033
I bought a tool belt from Lowe's and I've been trying to figure out how to dye it a dark color and to use the mink oil. I have to look around but would Michael's and Jo Ann's have the things I need for the dye and oil?
Thanks for the great videos. I had no idea what I was getting my self into when I thought I would make my own set of Mando Armor.

Another way to give texture to leather is getting tin foil, roll it in like a ball, and roll it around the leather
Thank you for sharing this tutorial. Nicely done. May I ask where you got your bullet pieces? Thank you

@@createscifi I saw an 80s camera that would look like a rad sci-fi rocket launcher

Wooden dowel rods could work too as long as the ends are sanded smooth enough to hide the wood grain when painting.
tsirrom1 that’s what I did and I cut strips of sintra to make caps.
Great job, I'm gonna try this, what did you make the shell cartriges from?

You can use wood varnish.
