swap the money and card sides so you're not smashing the back of your cards with the snap.
Your knowledge and enthusiasm, I can tell that you love teaching. Thank you
Nice job. Thanks for putting your whole process out there. I'm just getting started and loved seeing that. thank you so much & very nice family you have, i like it & keep them happy every time. thanks again.
Rough out is swell, both in function and in classiness 👍 love the videos, I'm really grateful for the info you're sharing!
Hey Parker, I'm just getting into leather work and am finding these videos an amazing resource. Thanks for sharing, your work is inspiring!
Really appreciate your cheerful and helpful tutorials! I've made leather checkbook covers with rough side out, but found they get dirty easily.
I like the rough out look . And as it wears going in and out of your pocket it will get smoother. And your correct the roughness of the wallet clings to the fabric of your pants. Good video thanks for sharing.
Nice job. Thanks for putting your whole process out there. I'm just getting started and loved seeing that. I love the leather how-to videos. Keep them coming. Also you can't go wrong with any minimalistic wallet design. The days of over-inflated bricks in our pockets as a wallet are over.
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback
Thanks for doing this. You and your videos inspired me to make my own wallet. I glued my paper pattern to cerial box cardboard. I do need to remake it because the stitching didn't turn out as good as I'd like and the card pockets where just a bit to small. But in the end, I learned from my mistakes. Thanks guys, keep up the good work..
I would like it with your changes. Good job. Best regards, Richard
Great looking wallet. Love your channel - very inspiring and informative. Thanks for sharing
Great to find a fellow creative southpaw. Awesome wallet you put together. Rough out looks great. As a minimalist, the only change I would think of trying would be deleting the snap and it’s tab. Looking forward to checking out more of your videos.
Love tuning into this show 👌🏻⚒
Your videos are the best, keep up the good work. All the very best.
Love the channel, the wallet looks fantastic. I am not a fan of rough out either, but that looks really sharp! I like the button tounge(?) shape. I have been dabbling in leather working for about a year now. I have made a handful of minimalist wallets, some magazine holsters, and just the other day a rifle butt cuff with round holder. So far everything is for family and friends, I am impressed by your work ethic and your ability to make our hobby/craft work for you and your family. You are an insperation.

love your channel! thank you for sharing. also really happy to find a channel with goooood music!! keep it up!!
Loved watching the process of creating a new pattern. Its a nice wallet! I like that you admit you make
mistakes and then proceed to make it work. Bravo!! I also make a tester first. Always learn when I watch your vids. Thanks
Thanks Suzan!
Perfect to me. Looks like a rancher would have that, especially wirh the rough out. Great design
The rough out seems to really work well for that design. I like the design quite about it
Loved watching your process. It seems like trial and error is sometimes the best and only way to make the perfect template. I’ve measured and measured only to find the wallet too small once I stitched it together.
Still very awesome. I like the wallet. Great job. Keep up the videos
Very nice wallet. Rough out looks good on it tbh! Great work
Amazing work! So nice!
Love the rough out I would be happy with the tester great
Work
I love the design!
Angle the button flap like you typically do your card pockets. It will make it easier to finish and will carry a theme across both designs.
The rough outside looks really good with the finished interior. The only thing I’d say is to reduce the depth of the inner carder holder or the hidden pocket so the cards are easier to grab when you get 2-3 cards in it
Wallet looks great!
I like it the way it is, the locking tab looks good even though it doesn't fit your burnishing wheel.
we prefer rough out! love the style!
Your videos are fantastic, and very helpful for someone like me who is new to leathercraft and just starting my first projects. Also please cancel those cards if they're active because you can see the embossed numbers through the back!
Love the style and size
Very nice, I like the rough!
Thanks for posting the boo-boo. Glad to know I ain’t the only one.
I would leave it the way it is. Very nice
Love the wallet
the rough side out looks good for another option
I think if you bring that button a bit lower off the edge and a bit closer to the center, it will secure the wallet better. Another neat thing, you can cut the inner-right side of the pocket (for the cash) diagonally so that grabbing and taking the bills out gets easier.
Nice work. I watch your videos all the time.
Awesome idea!! I love the snap and the minimal pockets. I’d be careful making the snap piece any bigger or further across though because you might creep into pocket book territory which obviously isn’t the look you’re going for here. I could see making it longer so it might be less awkward to sit on? But over all, I’d totally buy it even as is 😊
I think it look great
Beautiful design
Forgot to flip the pattern? I've NEVER done that. Like never. Except those 500 times. So yeah, never. Especially when doing commission work...and realizing after spending a couple hours on it. Nope, never done it.
Good Really I was making my turn shoes back in a while, and that was when this happened, I ended up with two right soles. *palmface*
I agree, it never happens until you’ve done at least 1000x... 🤔
I think rough out looks great and turned out well. $45 good price!
I just started making my own wallet not for sale just like keeping myself busy sometimes and this looking pretty nice.
It's awesome
Brilliant wallet!!
Thank you Neriya!
Attractive design. Rough-out is nice for a knock-about/work wallet.
Thank you John!
Thanks for sharing the process. Thought i was the only one getting frustrated at this stage. By the way, the bottle you use to apply the contact cement was a big take away for me. Cheers bro!
I like it looks good
i LOVE IT!
I like it and the changes you spoke of were great improvements. I think you could stamp your logo on the outside of the wallet in it’s folded position. Also if you can slot another tiered card slot in it would be beneficial.
Darin Andrews From Hippie Guru Clothing in Australia thinks you are doing well with your videos
I'm learning a lot from your channel as well as others
I think you can't have too many ideas cheers Darin
I really enjoy your vídeos!! 👍
Mike M thank you Mike!
Muy lindo trabajo maestro un abrazo desde Argentina! !!!
I would only use one layer of leather for the snap to keep it thinner. Also. I did like the idea of having flesh side out. It would make it harder for a pick pocket. Thanks for sharing your process!
Great video tutorial.
Thats legit bro, i like it...
really like this style
Good to hear, love the feedback. Thanks John!
I like your idea of the snap flap being a little larger and a better curve on it. I also like that the cash gets folded. I like a big/small wallet - if that makes any sense. I want it to fit into my purse but not take it over, lol! For a more girly wallet like this I would make a wavy pattern from the snap keeping the snap dominant over the wavyness. Thanks for sharing, your creativeness is amazing. One day I will get some of the tools required to do this type of craft. Can you make videos for beginners with no 'real' leathercraft tools?
nice job man good luck i interested first time leather hand made
Great process video! I like how you emphasize efficiency in the production process. Time is $$. I would promote smooth and rough exterior.
Thank you!
The rough out looks great! I would definitely buy this. Also, next time cover up that card # with tape. Just my 2 cents
I agree it will be easier to burnish the edges of the flap if it's a more gradual slope, though that might have some structural drawbacks (added bulk through the length of the wallet). Great design though and excited to see what changes you make before production!
Thank you Jes! We'll see how it goes;)
I like the rough out. Brand “SBCO” into the rough side.
I like it the way it is 👌.
I like it!
Thank you!
Rough out looks good. I know I’ve recently been trying rough out as well mixed with the finished side
Looks pretty good even with the rough out.
I think you have some additional wiggle room to make the wallet lower in height maybe 3-5 mm and consider a version without the snap, too. Maybe that one (snapless) could be thinner leather to give it more minimalist and flexible for pockets?! 👍 Great work, products and videos btw. Love your channel mate.
Thanks for sharing!
Looks great ....
Good work. Inner surface also look good at the exterior
Thank you Kadir!
I like the size, but I agree with you on making the flap bigger. It’s a cool wallet!
Thanks Brendon! I appreciate the feedback:)
Like it and like ur channel.
On the wallet, wouldn’t do a double layer of leather for the button/snap ear
Agree, especially if you're going to increase that inside radius = increased length of of the leather ear to fold-over.
I see what you are saying. Would burnishing that cut edge keep it from wearing? Or, because that edge is 'inside' it wouldn't frey?
I've always thought about but never looked into flat snap options for the cap. If you're hiding it anyways, having it not bump out might be nice.
Hello. The wallet looks great. I am going to start Leather Working soon. Aaron Ionta
Nice wallet looks different god job
A longer flap might keep it from catching on pockets, etc. A shallower curve helps on burnishing so it’s more of a positive aesthetic than function. The size overall is good. I don’t prefer roughout but that’s not strong so make some for those who do. Good video and thanks.
Great work
Thanks Calvin!
Hello from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 💪🏼
I print sewing patters out, cut them then laminate twice. Gives a good base for a template.
aweseome idea:)
I like the bigger flap and rounded edge idea but would also like to see an id slot with a hole or a plastic cover on the money flap
I like it
Muito bonito esse projeto de carteira. Ficou ótimo. Tenho desejo de seguir os seus passos e trabalhar com couro aqui no Brasil.
Rough out looks surprisingly good. I agree with another comment that the snap will hurt the credit card, so I would suggest that you reverse the card and cash sides. Great job
I love the music on this, very relaxing!!
I love your videos, I'm from Brazil
Thank you! Glad to have you
Nice!!!
What size thread are you using on the top and bottom bobbin and is it nylon or polyester? Love the videos. Keep em coming. Thanks
Good job
I have big hands so it's too small for me. I need a debit card, license, cash and insurance card most days. I like a spring loaded money clip for cash.
Do you sell patterns?
The proportions are perfect in my opinion. But I do agree the inside radius of the snap tab needs to match your burnishing wheel.
Thank you!
I’m not a fan of folding my cash, but I like this design. I would change these things for my taste:
1. I would want more of the top parts of the cash showing for easier access, although the loose flap partially accomplishes this.
2. With a little thinner leather I would like the snap flap eliminated for easier access, a thinner overall design and and a smoother presentation.
Tried looking up "Tina Blade" on google. Got some very different results to what I was expecting! XD I'll go straight to the rocky mountain website i think. Thanks for your vids!
yeah.. did the same.. lol
Love your videos have you ever thought of putting smooth feed dog on your Juki, most leather setups have them so they don't mark up the leather.
I love your videos. I just bought Illustrator to stay making my own patterns. I can't seem to find any videos to teach how to draw like yours. Can you point me toward the info i need and/or make a pattern making video for your loyal subscribers? Thanks for the inspiration.
Really like the wallet and I know it is a minimalist wallet. But where do you put Drivers license, conceal carry permit, insurance, health, vehicle Ext. I keep trying to make the smallest wallet but when I'm done it dose not hold all of this stuff. Your wallet is really cool, flesh side out is nice. Really enjoy your channel.
The Snap may be a hindrance due to it catching on your pocket for jean wearers. I'm just saying. :)
like the size , button flap bigger other than that perfect
Nice video.. new subs here, filipino from saudi arabia... Nice wallet... Like it
Thanks Dennis!
