Excellent video. What I enjoyed most was; 1) you didn't waste time with showing me how to do the trivial things and 2) the techniques you used with the Cobra 26. I've been doing leather work as a hobby for the past two years while we RV around the country full-time. I plan to get a 26 when we return to Florida in December.
Enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing the process. The zipper process was helpful. That olive color is amazing. I think I’ve encountered that problem with bag shapes, too. Clever idea, designing to the machine capabilities (cylinder vs postbed). 👏👏
Shows that the Cobra Class 26 is a pretty awesome machine to have! The bag looked very nice, curious though as to how long it actually took for the complete cut-to-build and completion. Also, what weight leather were you using?
They are called wire binder clips, they are a little expensive but we like them because you can see through them unlike to regular black plastic binder clips
wickett and craig leather. Bag weight is usually anywhere between 3.5-6 oz and you can get it straight from the tannery or through their vendors like Buckleguy
Excellent top quality film! Really inspiring...Biiiig Thanks👌😉

The rinky-dink background music made my skin crawl.
lol
Beautiful bag
Thank you
This is all very first-rate. I am impressed by the double-row of stitches you laid down via the means at-hand.
Inspirational stuff here. I thank you!

At 11:53 are you adjusting bobbin tension?
@@lukedorny yep! It goes briefly from two layers of leather to three. 👍
I love your bags! I can’t find many people showing how to put a zipper in a tote
Happy to help
What kind of veg-tan do you use it is look like 2 sides finish inside no lining but it is so beautiful bag I ever seen!
This is a bridle leather

probably about 8-10 hours in total. 4.5/5oz leather is what we use for most bags
Love the olive color! Beautiful work👏👏👏👏 Non-leather related question...really LIKE your cap🧢. Where is it from?
Thanks!
The hat is from a company called Rad River👍
What clips are you using? I have never seen ones like those before.
They are called wire binder clips, they are a little expensive but we like them because you can see through them unlike to regular black plastic binder clips
Another question???
I just bought a Kwikprint 86 exactly like yours. What temp do find works for foil on leather?
Thanks
we do about 250 for gold foil. Everyone we know uses a different temp, lol. Try a few and see what works for you
Thank you so much. I experimented w it today and kinda concluded the same temp seemed to be working well.
What is the name and weight of the leather you used and where did you purchase?
Thank you

Great video! Thanks. What glue are you using? How long to dry? Is it just for holding while sewing or meant or be permanent?
It's Beacon: Fabri-Tac. We use it to glue pieces together before sewing. If we aren't sewing over it we use Barge rubber cement. Hope that helps
@@hemlockandhyde Thank you for the follow up.
Where do you find your leather?
we buy from the Tannery and through their approved vendors
