DEMO 2: Leather Edge Round Braid (1 thong 4 pass)

A demonstration of how to edge braid a piece of leather. This edge braid resembles a round braid. 1 leather thong is passed around a large scale model 4 times, between each of the passes I show the progress of this round edge braid on a piece of leather. In the end I show what this round edge braid looks like on the edge of a piece of leather. Demonstration 2.
I hope you enjoy the demonstration. Checkout my channel for many more leather braiding techniques including round braids, cover braids, knots, etc.

Thank you for taking the extra mile making this wooden jig to show the weaving with clarity. Appreciated.

[@Hawk74]

Fantastic demonstration. The exaggerated display piece, and a black line to denote the underside it's probably the best demonstration I've ever seen of leather stitching

[@Oldgringo47]

This is the most comprehensive video on lacing. Thank you.

[@johnzzhu]

You're welcome.

[@SDChick]

This was really clear and straightforward. I’m glad you used a big lacing pony instead of fumbling around with something small. I look forward to trying it on my next project.

[@johnzzhu]

Thanks. Hope it goes well for you.

Late to the party, but very appreciative!! Demo was top notch!! Applause !!!

[@INDIOIRLANDES]

beautiful.. i cant find a video so clear... and explained

[@johnsharpe501]

So many youtube videos are produced by people who may be excellent craftsman but fail miserably at teaching and filming. This is a rare exception. I thank you much and will probably use this braid that I might not have considered because of its apparent difficulty. You made it easy.

[@johnzzhu]

Thanks John. It's always my goal to get people to enjoy working with their hands again.

[@gerardoelprofe]

¡Felicitaciones!, Su forma de explicar es digna de un maestro. You are a leather master!

[@johnzzhu]

[@zulfiqarahmad3741]

great, simple and informative.

[@johnzzhu]

Thank you Zulfiqar.

[@pstrickland5671]

Creative way to teach! thank you. How do you estimate the length of leather thong you need? I've heard 7 times the length? What would you suggest for this specific braid? Many thanks

[@myriamdiaz7329]

Thanks, very good video, I really understand how to do it

[@johnzzhu]

Myriam Diaz You're welcome, I am glad you found it useful.

[@texasgigi3684]

Great job you are a good teacher. If you made a horizontal cut through the center of all the holes and hinged it, you could slide your braiding off, when you were done! I don’t know what that would look like-just a thought. Good job!!!

[@johnzzhu]

Thanks. glad it could be of help. I think it would be interesting, especially if the braid was a metal and you burn off the wood.

[@dadmum2910]

Well done sir thank you very much for your knowledge

[@Snowbabyk]

Hey! I’m trying to figure out a way to use leather ropes or bind a sheet of metal 14x 18 with its metal rope trim border. Any ideas

[@johnzzhu]

hmmm, not sure what your describing.

[@juanramiroescobar]

Excellent demos. Great teacher, but I would love to watch all the other ones. I just found demos 2,4 and 6. How are the othera called to have a look to them? I am a follower from Colombia

[@johnzzhu]

Thanks. Presently, I don't have any plans to do more leather demos.

[@jcrt1]

Where would I buy 1/8" WHITE calf lace?

[@KatyaKnightwolf]

How long roughly does the lace need to be? Like how many times the length of the project do you need?

[@johnzzhu]

About 4-6 the length depending most ly on thickness.

[@portia747]

[@hughanderson7285]

Cool if your project has 10 holes.

[@osvaldoanibaljuanin7986]

En mí país se llama costura de borde y se hace con cuero de potro o chivo!!hay distintas pasadas !!

[@Natalie-sp8nr]

Do you think I can do that in a wood stick?

[@johnzzhu]

Yes.

[@mom_im_losing_it]
