Making a Leather Sporran
Вставка

- In this highly requested tutorial, Chuck demonstrates how to create a leather sporran. A sporran is a traditional pouch that is worn in front of the kilt as part of the Scottish Highland dress. It can be as simple or elaborate as you make it, and adds a bit of functionality to your traditional kilt. It's also versatile enough to serve as a stylish purse or bag!

Hell ya! Glad you left it the full length at 50 mins! Cant get enough of chucks project videos 😅
This guy is the Bob Ross of leather and I love it.
Very nice work 😊thanks for sharing 😊
OLD Leather Smith here, Great Job as always Chuck. Suggestions, i teach my students 2 strop ALL blades, I am frugal that way you don't have 2 change blades ss often. I made some 4 a 4 group at a gathering since I only do bespoke they gave me the designs and I embellished them.
1 thing the fasting on the back is a strip of leather with the rings on each end sliding through a belt loop I use 2 loops sewn 2 the back.
I teach the use of cotton swabs easier getting into corners and edges,slso more reasonable 2 purchase than daubers.
Just some of the things I teach snd use in my shop.
Sorry 4 so loooong.
GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃
Great tip regarding the packing foam. Holy moly I was making this a lot harder before this.
👏👍Love watching your show. My daddy did leather work and I used to watch him create beautiful things. He passed over the rainbow many years ago and I do have a couple things that he made way back in the 1960s and 70s. Anytime I see anyone doing leather work it reminds me of him. Thank you for sharing your wonderful expertise with the world!
❤️
Man this is super helpful. I just made one a while ago with no instruction, and I'm glad there's a tutorial now.
love your work chuck!
Great work Chuck!
You do an amazing video Chuck, most enjoyable to watch and learn. I love how you show every step.
Great project
Epic project, exquisitely clear. Nobody could ask for more. Thank you!
Love it. Thanks Chuck.
Great job
Loving it !!!!!!! Thank YOU .
I genuinely laughed out loud over your comment regarding getting dye on our skin and just top coating it and moving on. 😆
@Chuck. Love the inspiration... going to use the outline/techniques with a pre-colored & pre-printed leather, so I will just have to color the gusset.
A bit more complex but really nice to see this one, looks amazing.
LOL , I love the tip to use some top coat if we get some dye on ourselves
Awesome ! 👌🏻👍🏻
"If you get a little dye on you, hit it with a top coat. You'll look great." 😂 seal it in so there's no rub off.
Thank you😊
I’d love to see a fur on sporran like a dress or semi dress. I’ve never worked with fur on
I have been trying to do a filigree wallet for weeks now and it keeps looking like something the dog chewed up. 😂
Thanks for the tips Chuck. I've been using my carpenters knife. It never dawned on me to use my exacto knife. I'll try it again. Thank you sir.
Hope that works out for you!
Great thanks
I'm looking for a small crossbody bag, just big enough for I'd, iPhone and glasses. This can work with an over the shoulder strap.
Just put some top coat on it!.....lol
I'm not going to forget that one...
full length is awesome! no way to cut this down. ❤
12:48 Perfect landing lol
Loving your channel. I've learned so much about leathercraft. This is my standard go to for reference. Is there any chance you could post the free patterns in A4? Your standard page format is not commonly used in Europe.
We will check into it!
Very cool kilt !
Where did you get it ?
Great idea for a gift and video. At 6:30 time mark, would you recommend placing the straight edge on the other side of the cut line thereby should the cutting blade drift it would not damage the working piece of the leather? Another thought, would there be any benefit to adding the floral spots prior to cementing the swede to the leather to hide the tabs? One final thought, is it traditional for this style of bag to not burnish the edges of the project? Loved the tip at the 41:10 time mark. Thanks for sharing.
Hi there,
You are correct, cutting on the other side of the straight edge would be ideal to avoid the chance of cutting into the hide. On the spots, it's up to preference, the reason Chuck did it this way is to help with keeping the suede attached to the front piece since there is no stitch line but you could attach the spots first and then glue the piece to the suede.
On the edges, suede does not burnish because it's chrome-tanned so we chose to just dye the edges to bring the whole thing together but if you prefer a different method that is perfectly fine!
@@WeaverLeatherSupply Excellent point, I did not consider the floral spots aid in holding the suede to the leather. You saved me a knock from the school of hard knocks. My head thanks you. Thanks for sharing.
👍
the only thing disappointing about this video was that Chuck didn't model the sporran for us at the end...ha ha
that's a very shallow sporran.
This could be turned into a woman's cosmetic purse
