    Just a heads up! In the video I said that we would be making dragon scale bracers next week. Just because of the way production worked out, it wont be next week, but definitely in the next 2-4 weeks.

    I stored dye in a random plastic container once and it completely dissolved the container overnight. I’d recommend testing the container, and /or storing it in a larger glass container.

    This is a really different style of dying leather. You gave me a fantastic idea for a costume...instead of a leather armor I'll start with a breast plate dye it a light green then use a darker green dye for the bubble process. Tool the breast plate as if I have Arnold Schwarzenegger abba. The back plate will have fins and tooled like scales. This will be a major project. Thanks for the idea and sharing.

      Sounds like a fantastic project! Just make sure to test the dye combo on scrap first.

    Daniel, let me (belatedly) welcome you to the Weaver Video Family. You bring a whole new and different level to the table. I love your ideas and you make it all seem so effortless. I get that many were hesitant about your offerings seeing them as competition for Chuck. I don’t see you guys or the other members of the team as competitors but rather as complementary. Good job. Keep it up.

    • @DanielReachCreations
      @DanielReachCreations Рік тому +2

      Thank you!!!! When I came on board the goal was to compliment what Chuck was already doing. He is an amazing wealth of knowledge (how do you compete with that even if you wanted to?) and is fantastic at what he does. We came into leather from two different sides. He came in building things (have you seen his armor?!) and added art to it. I came in from the art side and started building things. It gives us each our own unique perspectives on leathercraft. I'm very thankful for the opportunity with Weaver and look forward to a very long relationship with them. 🙂

    QUESTION
    (Order of Operations)
    Should the leather be dyed first, then the bubbles applied?
    Should resist be applied over the bubbles and then the background dye applied?
    Can't wait to see the results when applied to the southwest type look.
    IMPORTANT TIP:
    Do not suck on the straw.

    • @DanielReachCreations
      @DanielReachCreations Рік тому

      Good question! You can dye the leather first, then do the bubbles, or you can dye over the top of it. As always, test it first...very important. The sealer should be applied after you're done with all the dye. And this will be fantastic for a southwest style project!
      And sucking on the straw would be bad....like really bad. Like...black teeth bad. 😆

    Love the idea here; tried it out today for use in a Christmas gift.
    Question though: Used the same ratio, alcohol-based dye, but noticed chunks (for lack of a better word) of dye sitting on the bubbles. Once dry, most were able to be shaken off without issue, though a few stubborn chunks are still adhered. Have you had this happen? Any idea what may have caused it (or what could be done to avoid it next time)?
    Awesome video, thanks!!

    • @DanielReachCreations
      @DanielReachCreations Рік тому +1

      I have had that happen. Basically you have to let it dry throughly, then gently lift them off with a paper towel. That was the "schmutz" I was taking about in the video.

      @DanielReachCreations Рік тому +2

      The ones I'm working with are 7oz. And just a little insight into the upcoming video. I'll be referencing the video that Chuck did a few years ago on how to make the pattern. He did a great video on how to fit them to your arm, so no need to replicate that portion.

      Hi there, if you watch around 1:09 Daniel goes over the ratio he uses. 1/4 cup of water, and equal parts dye and dish soap (approx. 2 tablespoons of each). Hope that help!

    • @DanielReachCreations

      I get it. It's not the typical "snake" type scales but there is a real life president for them to look similar to this. Look at the "skin" of a Komodo dragon...especially the muzzle.
