    So much hard work, dedication, and skills involved in the making of a watch strap. I can't thank you enough for showing the whole process. And after all that hard work you put that gem of a strap on a fossil. The strap deserves a better watch my friend.

    Chris, I just found your UA-cam channel, and I love it. I am mostly a woodworker, but I've been really interested in leatherworking for a while. Your videos are such high quality, and the stuff you make looks fantastic! I hope you stick with it. I really enjoy the beautiful things you create!

    Good video always. although not hi end strap, but nice instruction and without any templates. I like your glue(UHL of Germany), which is not found in the shops anymore, but I saw online, but expensive with shipping cost. I have one, which i bought many be 6-10 years ago. this glue doesn't make messy , but It has toxic smells. also I know and observed you are professional craftsman. but use cheap tools(Chisels).

    I notice in your video you use two different types of contact glue. could you let us know what they are. also what brand of slicking fluid do you use?

    • @FischerWorkshopsTaiwan
      @FischerWorkshopsTaiwan  7 років тому +1

      I use KS bond contact cement when I need a really strong adhesive. I use UHU for less demanding jobs because it's easier to apply and applies cleaner. I used edge magic by Bob Park for the edges slicking.

    • @FischerWorkshopsTaiwan
      @FischerWorkshopsTaiwan  7 років тому +1

      alessandro c. Hi, some watch spring bars have a open n close handle on them for easier attachment to the watch. the hole on the tabs was for that handle. Although I rarely see this type of springbar, but this watch happened to have one...

      Depends on where you live? It's best to find a local supplier. If you are in the States you can google leather supply stores. If you are outside the US I would inquire from facebook leathercrafting groups. These groups have friends in the industry from all over the world that I'm sure can help you with suggestions.
