In this week's episode of The Leather Element, Chuck is explaining some of the features and benefits of the Mighty Wonder 4 Ton Clicker. This machine does not require any electricity and can easily be transported if you're going to shows, etc. Handcrafted right here in Mt Hope, Ohio at our facility, this machine was designed to boost efficiency and save time.

Would love to see Chuck give us a side by side comparison of the 4 and 8 ton clickers, using different size dies and leather weights. Planning on getting one of these, but undecided on which to purchase.
We couldn't live without our Mighty Wonder or it's brother the Little Wonder. They make our lives WAY more easy. We also use our laser cutter to test designs created in Illustrator before sending them off to be made into clicker dies. Best of all worlds.
Thank you so much, we appreciate you trusting our products for your leatherwork, E.J.!
I want a clicker press. Seeing how the dies cost so much, you should make a video on care, maintenance, and storage of the die cutters. Maybe even on organization tips since I assume a die collection can get pretty big for people in business.
chuck is great for these videos he is very easy to listen to because he is passionate about what he does :)
I love Chuck's videos! :-)
If my craft ever jumps to a job I would absolutely go for these kinds of tools
Thanks Chuck you open my mind to new things every time I got to think about it and see if I can put it in my budget that's awesome cool to have
Thanks for another great video Chuck. I'd love to see a "part 2" though where you talk about how to have the dies made. I'm not as worried about laying out the cash for the clicker as I am about what it entails to have the dies made. How do I order a die? How much do they cost? What if I need to modify/update/correct a die later on? Do I need any special skills or equipment to create a die?
Hi there! To create a die we just need either a drawing on paper with the exact size dimensions listed or you can go as far as creating a cad drawing for us. The price depends on the complexity of the die but we will get you a price quote before we actually make it. Once the design and price are finalized it usually takes our die shop 6 business days to create it and send it out. If you click the link below it will show you the contact information to send any inquiries to, Reagan will be happy to help you with any questions you may have!

This is definitely on my wish list. Can't wait to get one and put it to good use! Thank you Weaver AND Thank you Chuck!!
Thank you, Choya!
Chuck could you maybe do a video on making a simple leather quiver. All the videos I see on youtube on leather quivers are either very decorative or people use very interesting methods to create one. Would like to see you try one.
I want one SO bad! Thanks Chuck for another great video.
Thank you, Ken!
I love this machine, but I can help but wonder: given that it can only cut pieces of a limited size, how many low price small items would I have to sell just to cover the cost of the machine and each die.
Don’t think of it as low price items. You can cut precise components from cordovan leather for wallets that sell for 300 to 400 dollars! Small component pieces for bags that take up time can be easily cut with this as well.
I specialize in small accessories and hand bags too. Do you design dies that also punch hole too? Specifically for my wallets and handbags. Thanks, great tutorials. Keep up the good work.
Hi there,
Yes, we do custom clicker dies and we can put the punching holes right in the die for you! If you would like a quote you can email your drawing to Reaganm@weaverleather.com
How does this work with softer leather? I use mostly 2.5-3 oz deerskin. I had dies made years ago and have always used a clicker service. Would love to click in house. Thanks!
I would like one of these very much, but as a small business It is completely out of my prices range. Unless you guys do lay -a-way or have a payment program.
Chuck what do you use to soften leather? Best regards, Richard
Hi Chuck. Love the video and this machine. Could you use a hydraulic press with your dies?
Hi Cheryl,
Yes, you can use our dies in a hydraulic press. They are 1-1/4" high if that helps
@@WeaverLeatherSupply- I did see this on your site. I have a 12 ton hydraulic press. I will be ordering some clickers. Thanks
Thanks Chuck!!! Great explanation.. Is this available to cut the fabric with die shape which I want? I want to make brooches to sell it as my side job.
Hi there! It will cut through some fabric, but we would recommend testing it first. We would be happy to test it out for you if you want to send us a small sample of the fabric you will be using.
How thick leather? Saddle leather small parts? Conchos, horn wraps, etc?
The 4 ton clicker can go up about 10 oz. comfortably. You can certainly go heavier but it's going to take a little more effort.
I have a leather stamp that is made for making a 2.5" impression. It's only 1/4" high, what do I need to do to is to make it usable with this machine?
You can either add a wood board underneath the cutting pad to bring it up high enough or purchase an additional cutting pad and use one on top of the other.
Thanks awesome I need one too 💖
Ola desde Colombia me gustaría fabricarla algunos consejos para su fabricación
Curious if you have made moccasins
Can it be bought and shipped to the U.K.?
Yes, we do ship worldwide! If you'd like a shipping quote send us an email with your shipping address info@weaverleather.com
Weaver Leathercraft, That’s great!, I’ll do that, and I do have an account with you.
How does this machine work on 9-10oz leather,like holster size?
Hi there,
If you get the linear inch of the pattern you are looking at and multiply that x 400 it will give you the amount of pressure needed to click out the die. Holsters vary in size a lot so I can't say for sure. As an example, if you have a die that is 10 linear inches, it would take approximately 2 tons of pressure. Hope that helps!
@@WeaverLeatherSupply That was a great question and answer. Now I have an idea what size I need. Thanks
Will it click 10 oz leather? If so, will it do a dye with cuts and holes?
Hello,
Yes, it can click 10 oz. leather with this kind of die. As long as it fits within the cutting area of the clicker. We also have a larger 8 ton for large die cuts.
@@WeaverLeatherSupply thank you.
definitely want one.......definitely won't be able to afford one......

How about using it to wet mold leather?
Hi there, If you have a mold then yes, you could probably use it for that. Just keep in mind that it couldn't be too thick because the max height that can fit between the clicker board and the head is 1-7/8". Hope that helps!
Thanks
How much

Para Perú pueden mandar una así como el vídeo
With this machine I can cut vegetable leather soles for sandals 8/9 oz 34 to 40
This machine is sweet for sure but in my opinion it's significantly over priced considering the amount of material used and simple construction. If it was marked down 75% this struggling leather crafter could maybe make it happen and purchase one. Any raffles on one?
By the way I'm a subscriber/follower/lover of all your expertise. Keep the vids coming.
Look around even the cheap Chinese hand presses go for $8-900 and those are usually fixed head. For a four ton swing head made in the US $1500 is a very reasonable price for a such specialized tool.
Wondering why you need a 4 ton press when a half ton press does the job with no effort.
