I'm really digging the hybrid talking/sped-up video format! I've missed the old sped-up style vid, and this one allows for explanation as well as high entertainment value. Thanks and cheers!
Incredibly informative and easy to follow with great editing and humour. I have searched and watched countless leather craft videos but for some reason the algorithm just wasn't surfacing your channel. Now that I have found it however you've quickly become my favourite leathercraft channel. Thank you!
Let’s see where to start;! My name is Doug , Ironworker Doug! lol. Ah well, the wife and I have been watching your videos since you started! I have been leather crafting for 20 years now. I make tool holder’s for Ironworkers’s. That stitching pony you use, I took some pictures of it drew, sketched out what I thought looked good, and preceded to trace and cut, traced and cut a bunch of wood pieces, glued them up 🆙 and made one . One of my first wood glue projects ever! The box I mounted it on has drawers on each side, to keep the sowing stuff in um . I can’t believe how cool 😎 it turned out! Thanks
I have been playing around with leather since I retired 6 years ago. I have watched a lot of videos but never ran across any of yours until today. I love how you flip the leather around and the jigs and straight edges while your cutting. Your expaination of your tools and leather is excellent and easy to follow. Also enjoyed the bits of your personal life you shared with us. You can be sure I'll be watching more.
Would love to see a video of all the different leathers you have and what shapes you like to purchase (shoulders, bellies, backs), favorite ounces to work with etc… thanks for the great content
Thank you for this video. Its the best instfuction video I have watched so far. Im at the watch and learn phase so far in my journey to becoming a leather craftsman.
Where have you been all my life?? ...well, the past 2 years I've been making leather crafts anyway? Very informative, educational, & appealing! I had fun!! Thanks!!
Thanks for that! If it helps any, this video took 7 days (84 hours) to film, edit, and “make a wallet”. So it’s not always as easy as it appears. Thanks for watching!!!
@@MasconLeather oh I believe you! I made my first phone wallet and it took me a week to complete it. Now, to make another one and fix the mistakes I made in the first one :) I want some of those 15 hole punch chisels! Who made them for you? Or, I could go fire up grandpa's old coal forge and see how much I remember lol
I'm machinist by trade of 30 plus years. I dreamed of leather working as a child. I had belts that were stamped out. Even leather bracelets with little Devils for me. I'd love to spend time with you and maybe go so far as saddles.
I haven't watched for a while, and this is the first time that I've heard your voice!! Threw me for a loop. I had to check to make sure I was on the right channel! Regardless, I enjoyed the video. Thank you!
One of the best channels on UA-cam. Should have 5x as many subscribers. Some of the best tips out there. Looking forward to you sharing your edge coat/back side dressing formula some day if you happen to do so...
I have always been a big fan of leather since my teens. I remember there was a Tandy shop close by where I lived. I would always wander around looking at all the tools, and smelling the leather. I never knew where to start so instead I purchased leather goods. My trusty old dry folding knife leather sheath belt loop has a tare. I couldn't find a replacement, it has a unique design, so instead after studying the pattern I have decided to attempt to reconstruct it. I stumbled across your video. I like your style, your craft and your video editing skills. I also love your paw tattoo, I get it. You won me as a New subber. I'm here for the ride. Thank you for taking the "Time" to share with all of us. Angel from The Bay (Caliboy)
You have a great channel. It's always an Education. Thanks for all the hard work. I'm just starting out, having learnt so much from you, and a few other UA-cam leather workers.
Watching your videos is making me up my game in wallets and other leather goods along with my knife making. Have never seen the bump jigs used till I watched you. Will definitely give some a try. Beautiful items you make for sure. Keep up the good work.
You know the guy's good when he can invite competition! Nothing to worry about thought, because what you can't give to others, is your talent Sir. Sorry for your loss, I know what it's like.
Artie I am a HUGE fan of your work, and really enjoy your videos. They provide me with instruction as well as inspiration. Like you told me once... just make it yours! Your love of animals touches my heart. So cool you honor your fur babies with some ink. Kudos to you sir !
@@MasconLeather I am an old subscriber, learned many things from you. Just hobby leather crafter. Also, you need to know that people are watching you from the whole world, for example, I am from the Republic of Georgia :)
As said before by me, by far the best leather crafting videos on UA-cam. I’ve learned so much and have been inspired to do more than I ever expected - thank you! Quick question: why do you do the stitch line on the inside instead of the outside? I’m sure you have a good reason - learn me 😉
Awe !!!! Thanks!!! I’m assuming you’re asking why I punch from inside to out ? The “in” side of stitching looks SLIGHTLY better to me. Most won’t notice from one side to the other. But…. I know most will be looking at the inside of tie wallets 90% more often than the outside (after the first month of use). So, slight prettier inside. Where you see more
@@MasconLeather a lot easier to make sure you land nice on the pockets as well. i have done the outside punch like most videos show, and a couple of times landed ugly on my pocket and it ruined my stitch line. inside is definitely better for me.
I'm very new to the craft, love your content. I see a lot of your videos that initially I think I would love to make that, then when you are done I'm so overwhelmed I think I'll never be able to get there. Of course being a disabled vet with nothing but time on my hands hopefully I pick it up quickly
As many have and continue to say, thank you for what you do. The videos have gone way beyond helping me get better and understand more. As for the dogs. Man, if folks aren’t dog people it really is hard to understand. I’m in a career where I see humans in all forms of disasters and it was the sudden loss of both my Labs, Miw at 13 and Rej at 10, within three months of each other that stopped my world. To find joy in things again was a relief and delving into leatherwork about 8 months ago was just that for me.
Amazing as usual. You've basically made a 15min video summarising the knowledge I got from you over the years of me pausing, rewinding and replaying your earlier ones. :)
First time landing on your video. Love it. You did a great job showing stuff quickly and providing tool guidance. You cut stuff out and use cereal boxes like I do. Thanks for great video!
Thought sure Chloe had absconded Olivia and had hidden her behind the woodshed! Great video. Watched it more for your incredible craftsmanship than education. Thanks for. taking the time. Cheers.😁
Awe !!! Thanks! I always like when people notice the video editing. Wallets take 4-5 hours Editing and filming takes 50 - 75 hours 😆 Thanks for watching !!
I don't know if you read these but I love your videos you do. Awesome work and I've learned alot. I use beeswax on my stitching chisels and my other cutting punches. You should try it they slide right out without a bone folder. Thanks again for sharing you knowledge its improved my game alot.
Merci pour cette vidéo :) j'adore vous voir travailler ! j'aime votre style et ça me donne toujours des idées pour travailler les cadeaux pour ma famille 🥰🥰
English translation -Thanks for this video :) I love to see you work! I love your style and it always gives me ideas to work on gifts for my family Thanks!!!
What product are you using to finish the rough side of the leather? Great video by the way, the explanations are super helpful for beginner enthusiasts. I love seeing your tips and tricks for simplifying and speeding up processes.
That Olivia is one intelectual cookie. I really like your teaching style. Simple yet great design. I may try my hand at this one. Is the pattern available?
Olivia is a master !!! Thanks for watching! And no, I don’t sell my designs. But I’m doing a video soon on how to design. So keep an eye out. And be sure to subscribe. 🤘
your work is awesome. i love the special tools you use, i am thinking about getting those bump jigs. where did you get the horween stamp? great video. thanks for sharing
I won't lie for a split second I thought when you mentioned the tattoo of Chloe's pawprint for the empty spot by the end of the video I thought you were delivering some bad news. Then I realized that I misunderstood what you were saying. Whew! She runs around like a spry young pup! She's awesome!
I just discovered your awesome videos and am binge watching them all. When I heard your comment about Chloe my heart dropped to my stomach, I thought you meant she was sick. I’m overjoyed to hear she’s ok. I lost my Chloe last year, she was 12 and I know that deep,cutting pain. Peace!!! 🐶
Hi, I'm loving the content! Please tell me, why do you treat the leather with something before getting started? We don't have that here so what can I use? Thanks 😊
Hey Artie, thanks for all of the knowledge you give out. I haven't been in leather working long (just a hobbier), but I have learned so much in a short time just by watching your videos. Question: I saw on the website that you have a minimal edition of the Santiago without the front pocket. How would you do a card stop on the inside pocket since you wouldn't have an outside pocket to cover the stitching? Would you use glue only? Thanks again.
hi i love your work. can you tell me what that paste is that you spread on your leather? Also , how do i get rid of the fuzz on wrong side of my leather? thamk you so much.
@@MasconLeather I like the format and the attitude is spot on. Something rubs me weird and I can’t tell what. Will definitely keep watching. The first thing I am going to make in my new leather crafting hobby is a wallet. Right now I am rocking a 25 year old Kohl’s special. I am going with a royal blue dye just for some extra personality.
Greetings Artie, I see you use Amy Roke's leather tweezers a lot. I ask you for advice when sewing the leather parts for the handles... Do you recommend me to first sew the section that goes from the beginning of the handles to the spring and cut the thread to then sew the part that goes from the spring to the end of the handle? That is, the seam goes in 2 times or only one? I appreciate it if you help me thank you.
Amazing content for a newb like me! The corner punchers from Amazon, are you using the arc-shaped or the half moon versions? Thank you so much for the high quality content! You now got yourself a swedish fan!
Hi. I am a big fan of your style. Thanx for sharing all these tricks and making nice picture with great sense of humor. I spent some time to find an answer to my question in comments, not to borther you, but I could not find it anyway. So I would be glad if you answer me: what do you use for edge finishing? What ts that black marker - is that just standart paint marker? What is that black solution for polising - is it Tokonole? Thanx in advance!
Man, in my opinion you are by far the most interesting wallet maker out there. I started making my wallets a few weeks ago just before Christmas and getting closer to my perfect personal wallet. Just curious to find out where you get your leather. I've been practicing with veg tanned and I believe I'm ready for the main event. Thanks for all you do...and AWESOME videos!!!!
@@MasconLeather do you have a Horween distributor or do you get it directly from the Horween Tannery? Also, can you recommend a place to get smaller pre-cut Horween ETD since I can’t afford the big stuff I’ve seen for sale.
Thanks for tips👍🏽🙏🏽. Ordered Arc Punches... 7 sizes... Water based adhesive won't go with Horween? Smell of Barge😥😥😥 Waiting for Burnishing cream video...
Probably THE most unique and entertaining leatherworking content I have ever seen. Plus you learn alot. It's like a more entertaining PBS kids.
Your whole bump jig thing changed my leatherworking. Thank you
Thank YOU! And…. Get ready. More new tools coming out soon. That’ll change it more ! 😉
I'm really digging the hybrid talking/sped-up video format! I've missed the old sped-up style vid, and this one allows for explanation as well as high entertainment value. Thanks and cheers!
Thanks!!! It’s a lot of work for the hybrid, but helps to cut a 6 hour video down to 20 minutes
100% agreed

Brother I love your style. You so make me want to try my hand at leather working. Your products are amazing
You should! and thanks!
The cutting procedure using the 'bump jigs' method alone made this a a must see video! Many thanks. 👍
Thanks!
I really like this kind of color of leather.
Where have you been all my life?? ...well, the past 2 years I've been making leather crafts anyway? Very informative, educational, & appealing! I had fun!! Thanks!!

You do some awesome work with Leather. Love it all. By the way, you have a very pleasant voice. You should do radio...
😆
Thank you!
I’m not used to speaking aloud at all
I like the old one. Your sample or ready made. Like the kind of patina and the size of it.
Everything is made to order. One at a time.
I think the way you work is spectacular. Congratulations!

Conflicted over your video style, but you earned a subscription. I’ll let you know when I figure out if I like it or not lol.
Thanks!! Yeah…. The video editing takes roughly 40 - 50 hours. For a 10 minute video. It’s an art that’s enjoyable
@@MasconLeather I like the format and the attitude is spot on. Something rubs me weird and I can’t tell what. Will definitely keep watching. The first thing I am going to make in my new leather crafting hobby is a wallet. Right now I am rocking a 25 year old Kohl’s special. I am going with a royal blue dye just for some extra personality.
👍
Ilove this one! Very Good craftsmanship. How to buy or have one?

Greetings Artie, I see you use Amy Roke's leather tweezers a lot.
I ask you for advice when sewing the leather parts for the handles...
Do you recommend me to first sew the section that goes from the beginning of the handles to the spring and cut the thread to then sew the part that goes from the spring to the end of the handle?
That is, the seam goes in 2 times or only one?
I appreciate it if you help me thank you.
Amazing content for a newb like me! The corner punchers from Amazon, are you using the arc-shaped or the half moon versions? Thank you so much for the high quality content! You now got yourself a swedish fan!
Hi. I am a big fan of your style. Thanx for sharing all these tricks and making nice picture with great sense of humor. I spent some time to find an answer to my question in comments, not to borther you, but I could not find it anyway. So I would be glad if you answer me: what do you use for edge finishing? What ts that black marker - is that just standart paint marker? What is that black solution for polising - is it Tokonole? Thanx in advance!
No paint. No kote. Nothing synthetic. It’s dye. Then burnished. I’ll do a video soon on the whole process
Man, in my opinion you are by far the most interesting wallet maker out there. I started making my wallets a few weeks ago just before Christmas and getting closer to my perfect personal wallet. Just curious to find out where you get your leather. I've been practicing with veg tanned and I believe I'm ready for the main event. Thanks for all you do...and AWESOME videos!!!!
Thanks, frank!! I use Horween leather 99%
@@MasconLeather do you have a Horween distributor or do you get it directly from the Horween Tannery? Also, can you recommend a place to get smaller pre-cut Horween ETD since I can’t afford the big stuff I’ve seen for sale.
