You’re like a cheerful, leather-working Mario 😮
I was just going to say something similar. I noticed that as the video goes on he gets more and more excited. Love it :D
you dont know how hard it is to find a leatherworker on youtube that actually talks. i dont have time to just watch i have to work while i watch so it gets real old searching for leather videos and all of them i swear are ASMR instead of teaching anything. thank you for sharing your wisdom
You're better off looking up a Weaver or Springfield Leather video. This kid is a well-meaning amateur. His process is overly complicated, he doesn't seal the dye, do any sort of sanding, and his edges are uneven and sloppy looking.
@@vorshack8968 you have to be kidding ! Those two sites are like watching 20 year old videos on VHS. Yes this is a little over the top but is great for any beginner watching.
@@johnhenson4054 Have there been great advances in basic leather working in the past 20 years? Old videos are just fine.
Great video.I’m new to leatherwork and I just want to focus on minimal wallets for right now. Thank you for showing me how to get that professional look on the edges.
Love your tips and your entertaining delivery. 😁
V. Useful video, thank u! Regards from Egypt.
I like this guy, solid.
Great channel and personality.
Nice Video! The finger tab arrived today. Thx for the nice letter besides :) Greetz from overseas.
that is so cool!! let me know how it shoots!!
I own A Gnomes Shoe Repair, My Friend✨ I Thank You For The Tips!!!
Can we apply saddle soap before acrylic paint on leather edges?
In your opinion, what color model is better than other colors for natural leather?
Nice
You're going to put to oil on after you "waterproof" it?
Why he looking like super Mario ?
any tips on less expensive ways to dye leather? in the past i have simply use a all in one leather dye but like anybody who wants to sell their products i want to make a quality product as inexpensive as possible sooooo 8 to 12$ for a 4 oz bottle seems insane to me .... any ideas would be greatly appreciated
If you're in the US you can buy fiebings pro dye from weaver leather at $5.50 per 4oz bottle. A 4oz bottle is generally enough for me to do a few dozen coasters
You’re fucked. Hit up the company that produces the product.
JH leather youtub channel. She has a video creating your own edge stain dye with a recipe. ua-cam.com/video/hPJL7311020/v-deo.html
Shoe shine may work to your taste. It works better on dyed leather. I've never tried the white shoe shine.
So I'm still relatively new to leather craft (started about a year ago and slowly been working my way through). I've got my burnishing stick (it's not varnished or anything - should I varnish it or is plain wood still fine?)
I've got most of the process down and now i'm really thinking about my edge finishes.
I use some black stain for my edges to add the colour all round, and then I use gum tragacanth and burnish with my stick. I've ordered some beeswax and edge beveler so will be using those, too. But what's the difference between using saddle soap or gum etc?
Thanks :)
It appears from this video that the more you treat the edge, the better it will treat the user. I can get behind that. BTW, I’ve been doing leather craft for nigh onto 40 years. I hope your journey is as satisfying as mine has been. Peace to you and yours.
Smooth the edges and add an oil. Everything else is just details
Where can I get those roll on dye bottles?
Just found them on eBay: Craft Sha Leathercraft Leather Edge Dye Dressing Black Gloss Lacquer Finish
you can also order empty paint pens from dick blick art supply theyre suoer cost effective
Might want to try some shoe shine as a sealer for the edges. Or for the whole project. It works better on dyed leather. Apply it to the edges, let it dry foe a couple of minutes then apply water and burnish. It looks pretty good.
Can this method be used for chrome tanned leather as well? I did watch your video for chrome tan leather, but I’m thinking this can do very well for chrome tanned just as well?
BTW- Thank you 🙏 I wish you had more time to do more videos.
Pretty much all Chrome tanned leather doesn't burnish, you will have to use an edge paint, though most roll the edge over and stitch a rolled edge.
Wax will go on the edges of chrome tanned leather. The friction heat melts it into the fibers. And I believe it burnishes this type of leather a little bit. Not as well as it does on Veg-leather.
I can't get tokonole in my country, also I don't have edge beveller over here. 😒
that's too bad!! you could use a very sharp knife instead of the beveler!! you can just use water instead of tokonole!
Well you can always get cmc in your country.
Add 3 grams of cmc to 100 ml of warm water.
It basically becomes tokonole without the liquid wax. Then maybe do 70 per cent natural bees wax and 30 per cent paraffin wax on the edges for a sticky free shiny edge.
@@shripudkhemka9144 thank you for the tip
you can make an edge beveller with a screwdriver, a file, and sandpaper.
also. you can use a natural color shoe polish, in place of the tokonale or a simple hand lotion will do the same.
Cute self
Most important step: before you do anything, make sure your cut is clean. If your leather is not cut clean, your burnish wont look good. Oh and use tokonole to burnish
You super cute love this video
Bro looks like Mario
WARNING: This video should not be misconstrued as professional advice. This kid is an amateur who only recently graduated from the Basic Leather Working Tools kit and started buying lower end big boy tools.
Sounds like you make wallets also. I'll bet his wallets are better than yours.
@@minerblue9641 Of course, because if I'm criticizing it must be because I'm envious.
On the other hand, perhaps I take some small issue with every amateur on the planet clogging up youtube with tutorial videos when they are still years away from being in a position to teach.
@@vorshack8968 ...but imah youtube xpert!!😎
@@tughilldog If this were your mother's sex tape, you would be correct.
