Tanner. You still remain one of the only UA-cam video producers that use clean, clear diagrams to help explain your project process. It makes the entire video more enjoyable and informative. I really appreciate the extra step. Plus, this video had a puppy!!! Cute. Really cute.
@@ClaridgeLeather On another note, Tanner. I want to build myself an art supply bag. Sketchbook, pencils pens and other equipment. My only requirement is that the front of the bag has to open flat so I can see everything. No digging around a messenger bag. But a similar shape. Can you put together a video on how you 'prototype' a project. Non-leather materials you use to mock up the shape. Then how to make patterns? Just a thought for a different kind of video. Feel free to decline. It would be a lot of work on your part. You already teach me cool stuff. I just don't know where to start.
To your credit, very enjoyable to watch. I realize my comment is not focused so much on the collar itself but rather your ability to make me feel like you were indeed speaking directly to me. I lean more towards traditional collar methods but everything has its place.
I've been meaning to make one for our new puppy too, but was going to wait until she got bigger, but you make it look so easy I may just make a temporary one now too! Great video and instruction as always bud!
Hey Tanner, thank you so much for putting together these videos and sharing your knowledge. You never know who you will inspire, but know that you certainly are! Be well. -Marco
Great video! I could watch that puppy all day long and not get tired of it! So precious! He is going to be a big one!!! Going to have to try that collar…I’m not a leather crafter and don’t have any fancy leather tools, but I might try it anyway, and use my XTool D1 to engrave his name on it! My dog deserves a beautiful collar like that! Lol
I know I'm kinda late to the game, but I just came across this video and as much as I love the collar, I'm in love with Griz! I have to know what kind of adorable monster he's gonna be. Bein this video is as old as it is, I can only hope you still might get these comments.
This is all that is good about social media. Started out looking up one thing and now going to make my dog a collar, after I build my own golf clubs, which is after I make my own painting. This is all before I go off grid and have a sheep farm. I kid I kid. Except about the collar and golf clubs.
Love this! I am new to leather craft and I am having a hard time trying to cut those rivets down to size. I ordered cutting pliers but can't seem to cut it down. What type of pliers do you use and thickness of your rivets. I've been ordering #9 brass and copper.
Late reply but thought I’d toss this out there anyway: I currently use 8” Knipex end cutters and they are great, though I’ll be upgrading to the 10” version shortly to give more leverage for cutting the harder brass rivets as production increases.
Nice video, Thanks for sharing. I am curious: where might one acquire one of those typeset devices that holds the letter stamps. I think that is just the ticket for me to be able to stamp names in a straight evenly spaced line. Thanks again.
I really want to make one but I like to buy good tools and with the rivets, tools, leather, etc would provide it cost me $300+. You make some of the best produced and clear lily explained videos. Thanks for posting this.
Thank you! I understand there is a barrier to entry for this hobby, unfortunately. I bet this could be done for under $100 pretty easily, though, depending on the tools you find! I hope to make a video on that subject soon! Thank you for watching!
@@ClaridgeLeather Just adding what you - have to - buy just for this project i´d say sub 50. 25 for a basic rivet set, 15 for the hardware and some leather scraps.
Not sure if you have done this, but can you teach a little bit about working with the leather in ways that take into consideration how it stretches? Thanks
Kind of all over, but I did add some links to some of them in the video description. Hope that’s helpful! Was there something specific you’re wondering about? All the hardware is from Buckle Guy. 👍
Nice tutorial, I would like to ask you for information, if instead of inches I use centimeters (x is the size of the neck) i + 8 "to add to x do I simply have to transform them into centimeters and do the same for the final +3"?
Suggestion: if you make another for your dog put one D ring in the center of the collar. Reason is the weight og the buckel will always be down and with a ring for the leash at the top you dont have to turn the collar arond to clip on the leash.
Made a collar for my dog a couple years ago. Put her name on it and our address since she's an escape artist. It's paid off, she's been brought home a couple times. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, Bruce! I appreciate you saying that- I will continue to strive to do that! I’ll give the pup a scratch for you!

I run a rescue and am dyslexic and this helped me so much. I will be trying this to make collars to raise money. Thank you
Oh my gosh Griz is adorable! I get my pupper in a couple of weeks and I never thought of making a collar but I am now! Thank you for the video.
This is a perfect video start to finish. The informative clear nature, a few jokes, and fluffy pooch are all incredible. Thank you so much!!
Aw, thank you for watching! Have fun!
I've been meaning to make one for our new puppy too, but was going to wait until she got bigger, but you make it look so easy I may just make a temporary one now too! Great video and instruction as always bud!
Thank you, Ethan! You can always reuse the hardware! 😄
@@ClaridgeLeather Great point!
Excellent video, as always Tanner! Thanks for simplifying the pattern and the process. And that puppy!!!

Another great video, and a beautiful collar. Griz is absolutely gorgeous, too! 👍
This was the cutest tutorial ever! Ty so much!

Love this beautiful puppy.
Thanks for sharing, great video. Why the extra 8 inches? what's the reasoning behind that number? why not 6 or why not 10?
Dude. Finally found a fix while waiting for Little King Goods vids. Great work!
Ahh, that’s awesome! I’m a big fan of his videos as well. Ryan is great guy and a good friend. Welcome! Lots more to come! 🙏🏼
Great video and subject Tanner & Griz, thank you!

😂 Going off grid doesn’t sound so bad either! Hope the collar goes great! Thanks for watching!

I got this from www.leatherstampmaker.com It’s a great tool!
What was that letter setting tool, where you put the letters into?
Gorgeous dog what breed is it
Well done!!! Saludos desde España
I just mad my dog one using you pattern, came out fantastic, thank you. Where did you get that letter stamping set???
That’s awesome! So glad to hear it worked for you. I got the letter set here: leatherstampmaker.com/product-category/letter-sets/full-sets/ Cheers!
Do I have to use bridle leather or can I use veg tan leather?
Great work.
Thank you, Josh!
The x + 8 formula is a game changer. Now I just need one for belt sizing...
well done, as always. good work on the videos. .... and Grizz is awesome, you're going to be making collars every week for awhile lol
Ha ha… that’s for sure! His dad is 160 pounds! 😳
@@ClaridgeLeather getting to 160lbs will take you a whole side lol

@@Markus__B what about that skiver? :-)
That might go over budget a little… 😄 There are lots of inexpensive ways to skive as well.
Simple and perfect! 👍🏼
do you prefer this leather to un dyed veg tan raw leather for collars? TIA
Not sure if you have done this, but can you teach a little bit about working with the leather in ways that take into consideration how it stretches? Thanks
Thank you for the video.
You’re sure welcome, Tammy! Thank you for watching!
Incredible!! Thanks for the video :)
Thanks for watching! Have fun!
Beautiful dog!!! Leonberger, right? Thanks for that great tutorial that will benefit my own dog.
Thank you! He’s actually a St. Bernard/Anatolian shepherd mix. Getting big now! Cheers, Hugo!
Really enjoy your videos! Beautiful puppy, is he a Saint?
Thanks! Yes, half Saint and half Anatolian Shepherd.
Good video
Ok…..they are the rivet that I need. Where do I buy them from please? I am sooooo sick of the cheap and nasty cap ones that some suppliers sell.
Where did you get all your supplies?
Kind of all over, but I did add some links to some of them in the video description. Hope that’s helpful! Was there something specific you’re wondering about? All the hardware is from Buckle Guy. 👍

It should work fine if you just convert everything to centimeters (1 inch = 2.54cm). Have fun!
@@ClaridgeLeather 👌
Please tell Grizz I love him!,
Done! 😄🐶
Suggestion: if you make another for your dog put one D ring in the center of the collar. Reason is the weight og the buckel will always be down and with a ring for the leash at the top you dont have to turn the collar arond to clip on the leash.
Yes! Awesome idea- will do that on the next one, as Griz has already outgrown this one!
@@ClaridgeLeather i think you will find it easier on you when putting him on his leash. Take care snd again thanks

🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👀
You bought the dog just so you had an excuse to make dog accessories didn’t you? I’m gonna try that with SB 😆
Ha ha… you know me. Have lots of kids so I can practice making baby shoes… 🤷♂️ I’ll talk to SB about getting you a dog.
Give Griz an extra tummy rub for me!
Done! 😀🐶
I wish I could find a video that doesn't use so many tools
The amount you spend for the tools and accessories to make dog collars you can buy good collars for the life of your dog. Just sayin
Entiendo todo a pesar de no saber hablar en inglés ,gracias!!
