- In this ep, we learn how to make a wizard hat out of leather!
What up, Fam?!? Today we are going to use another template from Dieselpunk to make a truly magical hat! Seriously, the arcane energy generated by this hat will 100% transform you into a powerful wizard!*
*This product will most likely not imbue the wearer with any kind of powers magical or otherwise... because the power is in you already. It was love the whole time.

Real sick hat. These projects make me want to attempt the leathercraft, but I am worried I will buy all the materials, do half a project, then wander off like I always seem to do. *Looks over at table covered in clay supplies and half done wooden boat*
I'm somewhat new to Leatherwork, but I have friends with way more experience. The dremel trick was something they didn't know either, even the ridiculously talented leather carver. I did a similar play on mine, with things I like as opposed to "magical" symbols, and then antiqued it for a richer look. Thanks for the tips!
A quick tip: if you’re using a stiff veg tan leather hide, wet leather to help flip the crown pieces right side out and also the edge of the brim!
Tony's patterns are awesome. The corset hat was my first Dieselpunk pattern.
hells yes! now you gotta grow beard to a wizard beard!!!!
It's already turning grey with power. At least I tell myself that's why it's changing😬
only logical answer I can think of
Actually, in discworld (making money I think) Moist Von Lipwig and Adorabelle come to Unseen University to consult a wizard about a niche linguistic query. They meet a junior wizard before hand and notice his beard is a false one. He informs them that beards in fact are not compulsory
@@SkillTree love the salt and pepper look, it looks great
I made a wizard costume out of stuff I had and stuff I bought for it I have a hood instead of a wizard hat and it was so much fun it made me feel like power wizard
You should share your costume with us on the discord!
The wizard hat that I want to make will be the part of my outfit. I’d love to make that hat.
Interesting. So much hand stitching!
I need to make one of those in deep black for everyday use at summer.
LOVE THIS HAT... NEED LEATHER HERE IN CANADA.. OUFF.. BUT LOVE IT AND VERY NICE STICH WORK.. WOW... VERY NICE..!
Purple is, actually, more of a magical color. Purple is an uncommon color in nature, and when it is produced it's usually alongside blues and greens. Purple itself is historically associated with royalty and power. Good on you and your brain.
So very cool, reminds me of Terry Pratchett's book Colour of Magic 👍 😁
Haven't read it. I will have to pick up a copy!
His books might be aimed at the younger audience but are full of fun
@@Everythings_Adjustable a good book is a good book, no matter the intended audience 😁
@@Everythings_Adjustable actually only the Tiffany Aching books, and The Amazing Maurice are YA. Discworld os largely for a bit older of an audience. Think Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but fantasy. Not too explicitly for kids though I would say
I love the super chill style. I also love the dremel trick! Gonna give that a shot!
This is perfect for my D&D Satyr sorcerer cosplay! You have such amazing projects ♡＿♡
Thank you for watching!
As ever amazing tutorial to level up leather working! Keep it up! :)
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed the project.
The wizards of Unseen University would approve.
I see, a fellow of culture and taste
Looks amazing! I bet if you added another line of holes parrallel to each connnector you could cross stitch. Cross stitches look really witchcrafty.
I like how you are unafraid, courageous and well acquainted with the spirit of adventure. (Glad you survived school)
I've made this hat. Love dieselpunk.ro. Made mine of some leftover chrome tanned, it's serviceable but hindsight being 20/20, I'll use the recommended 4oz. vegetable tanned leather
How was the flexibility of the chrome? The one issue I have with mine so gar is that the veg tan can be a little stiff. I am sure it will ease up a bit as I wear it in but still.
@@SkillTree *had to try it on again to get a feel* the cone part will not stand up and stay with the chrome tanned leather I used. That said, it droops behind my head like what I would assume a worn, owned, hat would eventually do. That and you can't really tool chrome tan so I'd likely do the veg tan and wear it and apply plenty of neatsfoot or mink oil to soften it
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Tony over at Diesel Punk has the best patterns on the interwebs. Awesome idea using the rotary tool for tooling. My tooling sucks but my dremel skills are tight. And yes, I took advantage of Tandy's black Friday deals too.
Thanks! Burning it looks like a viable option too. Maybe something to try next time. And I agree, Tony is the freaking man!
@@SkillTree I've got some pieces from Cuba that are burnt, they look great, I've used sharpies before. The are actually very colorfast.
Should add a metal cap or ferrule to the end of the cap, would look great.
Good thought! I will look for or make something that works. Thanks for the thought and for watching!
Needs to be brass
@@lpm67 bronze.
In Discworld Mustrum Ridcully has an amazing wizard hat filled with pockets/drawers for pipe, tobacco and a wee bottle of hot sauce and a holster for a mini crossbow on the hatband (he's an opportunistic hunter you could say), but in the tip resides a little flask. For emergencies
I keep looking at the breaks on the layers and thinking if you topped it off at just the first "ring" and bent the brim just right it would make a pretty close approximation of the hats typically worn by red mages (a.k.a. "battle mages" as they possess proficiency in melee combat as well as magic) in the Final Fantasy games. So that's something I need to look into if/when I can get my hands on sufficient quantities of leather to try this myself.
I like the way you put your personality into your videos and crafts. Keep it up, you.🧙♂
if you wanted a cool skyrim build you could build iron dagger or the iron arrow or use your etching skills and the the steel war axe
Nice hat!!!
Now I have to try the dremel on leather!
Let me know how it comes out!
Love your channel !
Super cool dude!
👍👍👍nicely done, good tips, Tony sent me...subbed
Thanks for watching and for the sub! Welcome to the family!😁👍
A couple years late to the party, but I totally would have used a silver leather paint to highlight the lines you engraved. Just to make them stand out more. Plus purple and silver look sweet together.
I can totally see where you are going with that and it would look pretty sick, but I also support the way he went with it. I love the dark look with that color. A practical wizard might not want his symbols to be super easy to see from a distance, lest his enchantments be known to his enemies.
@@loveless131 I do not disagree, his version looked sweet too. I’m just a fan of purple and silver and that would have been my route.
@@ZanarCrestrider For sure. I just like to throw in character considerations too. Wizards are complex creatures haha.
I just noticed thats Caught In a Bad Romance in the background 😂❤
Love the finished hat! 🪄🎓
This was a cool video to watch. I especially liked the engraving you did on the leather which gave me an idea for if I make my own wizards hat. One thing I've noticed when it comes to wizards and sorcerers is that they have a strong connection to astrology, so for the top part of the wizards hat, I'll probably carve in the eight phases of the moon in an alchemical circle while on the bottom part have the alignment of the night planets in our solar system.
Imagine if you had used the glow in the dark resin on the symbols.
love the video ... i just bought this pattern today
Awesome! Let me know how it comes out. It's a really fun project. Thank you for watching!
Love the video you should try making a wizard costume like the staff or wand a spellbook and a fake beard.
Rest assured, my friend. Objects of power will be on the way!
@@SkillTree just remains to be saved I almost died texting a spell for my bud Jizago
@@Scalesthelizardwizard "Oh, yes. J'zargo hopes to find things that will make him a more powerful mage here. Hopefully small things that fit inside pockets, and will not be noticed if they are missing." Love that Khajiit.
@@SkillTree yup lot's fun stories with him plus his a willing lab cat
Please do more wizardry videos
Excellent video!
Looks like a battlemage hat ...
Oh my gods
All those holes
... with a _rotary punch?_ Have you yet been able to form a proper fist since that day?
It was terrible but the experience.... it changed me... I now need to be careful not to crush doorknobs or break drinking glasses as I hold them. I shook my coworker's hand.... they say he will be out of the hospital soon and the prosthetic is top of the line but I still feel bad about it.😣
I did the same. It's easier on my hands than mallet and punch, surprisingly.
Sir, there are never more than 20 holes in Tony's patterns. IYKYK
Having just subscribed, you know I had to backtrack. Lol
Awesome video, that hat is cool as hell. Did you ever put a metal bit on the top?
Wow
Hopefully it's a good wow! Thank you for watching!
@@SkillTree omg yes it's a great wow
Skills Indeed !! With all the leather skill you will certainly have to make sheaths for any edged weaponry you create in the future.
Thanks for watching! Yeah, I need to do a sheath episode soon. Plenty of random sharp things lying around the shop 😂
That's such a bad ass build. I don't think you mentioned anything about sizing the hat. Can you make the middle wider or smaller depending on if you have a melon head or a peanut head?
Thanks! When you go to buy the pattern, there is a sizing chart. If going with veg tanned as I did, I would size up one size as it stretches a little less than the chrome tanned leather does.
That came out awesome!
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching!
you and tony from deiselpunk NEED to do a collab.
you should make video about getting into D&D
That sounds like a super fun episode! Will do!
would you make the dieselpunk pirate hat at one point?
Bit late to the party and no idea if you react to older video's, or anyone reading this. Could you replace the leather for something cheaper? Like foam for example?
Foam I guess would be a little flimsy because of its softness. If you don't want to use leather try using worbla. It is cheaper and it is durable too. And it is easier to work with.
You should antique the hat so the symbols pop.
Hi! What does antique mean here?
Just be you!
I think it would be cool if all the symbols would lightly glow in the dark
Hell yeah!
Pure awesomeness 😎
Put fur on it. Pimp it out. Kidding aside Looks great.
Awesome video!
I wonder if the pattern would work with felt?
Make some elf boots
Curly toes for the win
Pratchett sold me on that too
Trying to follow the build, not sure if I should use the large or x-large template?
So, I used the large and it IS a bit tighter than I would prefer. I may just have a massive dome tho lol.
@@SkillTree Haha yeah me too. I think i will try x-large, thanks!
I have a lot of hair because of my dreads. XXL is a bit snug always, and XXXL is a hard find in hat sizes
Now all you need is a staff or a wand.
Have you seen my "WAND OF FLAMES!" Vid yet? Check it out and let me know what you think😁
Ahem a staff And a wand!
I should've known you would have this video lol I'm making a wizard hat in honor of hogwarts legacy and I needed some template ideas cx
The seams are upside-down as it is it will let water in over time
What size hole punch did you use?
It came out awesome!
Did you use a #125 Dremel accessory?
Thank you! Yes, #125 attachment. I tried a few others but liked the control that gave me the best.
@@SkillTree I've got to try that out! 😁
@@ordnaelshideout if you do, be sure to share it on the discord! I would love to see what you come up with.
Surely the color of magic is Octarine
3 YEARS LATER....for the seam in the rear; you could pound it down over an anvil, along with any other seams..just adding two cents -worth. Have a great day.
A horn shaped goblet made of leather
how about a wand? like a cool ollivanders wand? 'o -
Hey, Heavy Rain! Long time no hear!😁 Love it. What do you think would be a good replacement for Phoenix feather in the core? Maybe I could get my hands on some monkey hair🤔
@@SkillTree i think some monkey hair will fit u better for your magical journey
p.s cant believe u remembered *- *
@@defdevecioglu I guess it's time to start calling local zoos and asking wierd questions 🤣.
I laways remember the cool people 😁
Sick hat, but come one, stylized dog paw? I can''t be the only one that sees a turd with cartoonish stink lines?
Pirate hat
Make a robin hood style hat
What wire did you use?
Just 14 gauge steel wire 😁
Hmm, are you cheap, or are you economical?
Ya look less like a wizard more like a red cap..
For the seams the stick out inside the hat that poke into your noggin, I would modify the pattern slightly to have those sections have a flat stitch (like with the Plague Doctor's beak) with those pieces butting flat next to each other, or over-lay and sew them that way. Stiff leather shouldn't be sewn sandwich style. It leaves those annoying tabs that are bulky and stick into you. 😕
