Making an Armored Leather Wallet (With STAINLESS STEEL!)
Stainless Steel mesh can be easily combined with leather, sewn in between layers, to make very strong wallet that blocks RFID scanners and also adds strength to the wallet. To make this wallet, we used this stainless steel mesh combined with harness leather to hand sew an RFID blocking front pocket wallet. The wallet is made from Wickett & Craig leather using poly threads. This Stainless Steel and Leather wallet is a super strong due to the stainless mesh, but it is just as comfortable to wear due to the steel being woven into a mesh fabric that is very thin and conforms to the shape of the wallet.
There are a few different places to get stainless steel mesh, so do a quick search for something that works for you if you'd like to try this construction!
Thanks for this, dead simple but shows the process in a way I can digest.
l use a stainless foil that is used for heat treating knives to keep oxidation off the blade. lt's .002 thick and flexible, but much cheaper than the screen. lt cuts with scissors as well. One layer is sufficient to block scanners. lf someone is concerned with scanners they can buy heavy duty aluminum foil and line the cash pocket of their wallet, but it will need to be replaced from time to time. Heavy duty aluminum foil is available at any grocery store and it's all l use for cooking or barbecue as it is thicker and less likely to tear, just FYI.
Mountain Fisher thank you
What is the stainless foil called in the heat treating/knife industry? Thanks.
Shirley, just go to Brownells.com, they have it in small or large amounts. It's not cheap, but much less than stainless mesh.
Thank you.
Just wondering, would those foil emergency blankets work for blocking RFID, or is it not the right material?
Shirley I don't know, it is real thin foil that's been coated with a mylar material.
sigh, so relaxing to watch and as always great to see your craftsmanship.
Not even sure how this ended up on my UA-cam recommendations, but I am happy it did.
It is beautiful and relaxing watching you do art. Thank you.
Good morning!!!
finally a video with original audio and not some crappy music
Watching your videos are so peaceful and calm, the details, its like a therapy for me...
The mesh looks like an industrial S S screen printing material we use for metallization of high temp circuit boards available 80 to 200 stands per inch. more expensive than polyester but more consistent tension. There was always small scraps left over after stretching the frames. Could be a good source for a free supply of small pieces.
Watching this brings me so much peace for whatever reason
Please fix sound recording to playback in stereo. Great videos to watch and appreciate - when the sound comes out of both headphones.
Wow no music very relaxing watching the leather man at his best
Very nice work 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Your videos are just so relaxing and pleasant to watch. Your videos are as well thought out and made as your leather goods.
Это, Руки Мастера!
This is fantastic work! Would anyone happen to know the thickness of the veg tan leather used? Might it be 3oz or 4oz?
soooo a question...
The end result seems to be flat and not folded, usually when i see wallets they are folded without having to "break them in"
how would one make sure the wallet is folded properly without effort and not wanting to stay open by the tension of the leather?
@sada das So there is no play with making the other shell slightly longer to allow for a natural extra material to fold and close?
if i glue two identical pieces of leather rectangles one on top of the other, and try to fold them that is.
or leather will naturally stretch the outer shell to allow for the fold to happen? (ie: broken in)
@sada das That makes a lot of sense, thank you for an honest opinion!
It being folded in your pocket for a few days is more than enough to keep it folded.
Beautiful workmanship! Could you show us how you use the guides on your mat? My mat isn't as nice as yours.
Nice, but personally would like to see more of that inside steel mesh
Awesome work as always!!
I found your vids even relaxing...
And of course inspiring... So finally ordered a basic tool set for leatherwork... My goal is to make a camera case for my canon dslr.
If you have any sugestions or videos related will be very much apreciated...
Keep up the nice work and awesome vids..greetingd from mexico. :)
try something simple first bro..
feel how your tool works and get to know the leather you gonna use..
then move to more complex structure like the case you want to make

I know it's not as sustainable as a mass produced good, but man oh man is there something satisfying about seeing completely handcrafted leatherwork...
it's actually much more sustainable than a factory made product :) We only use one tool that needs electricity, and all of our materials are byproducts of the meat industry which would be waste otherwise
@@Corter Sorry, no of course you're right, this far more environmentally sustainable. I meant in terms of volume production in a business sense. Wasn't a criticism, more a lamentation that only the lucky few will ever get to have something as unique as these pieces. Love your work!
It can be done! Many people say you need to sew with machines to produce enough volume to make a living, but we've been doing it with clicker dies and hand stitching for over 10 years producing plenty to make a living! That's why we don't use sewing machines in our videos, to encourage hand made production...that and we don't know how!
Beautifully done
good job!
Get the kids together!!! on the kids together and get it back to your house! get the kids together for you guys to come over and play with your kids today!!!!!
nice job Carter!!
You are a solid couple, you do this job together.
they are not a couple though, they just work together
My left ear not statisfied! Try to make a mono sound in both channels at least
George Zagraid had the same problem.

Arron Shaw nothing wrong with autism.
l love you so much!!! you are working so hard!
Beautiful!! ❤💕💞
What pricking irons are you using here? I have a set of diamond shaped and DONT like them at all getting into thicker leather as they don’t come out of the material well.
What’s that armor gonna do?
Great video
What kind of leather are you using ? The color of the leather is awesome . Great video very nice work
What is the thread and needle size that you use? Sewing with a heavy thread is such a pain.
YOUR WORK IS JUST SIMPLY AMAZING, THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS FANTASTIC VIDEO, I LOVE IT SO NICE
Great work, and very relaxing to watch.
Off course would be better to have both sides aound working, but the fact the only thing listening is the sound of the work is GREAT.
Just one question. What was the waxlike substance you rub on the edges after the sanding? Thanks in advance
Crear i love your artículo🤩
شكرا مزيد من التقدم انت في القمة 👏👏👏🖒🖒🖒
I always enjoy your videos. Well done, relaxing and shows off your skill.
Nice work.
Que original y muy bonita billetera y me fascinó el modelo el trabajo tan finó lo Félisto
Really great work 👍
Awesome 👍👍👍
what are those holes for?
Fantastic craftsmanship
What kind of leather? Thickness? Thanks
how does he get veg tan leather like that tone/finish? anything i buy is usually softer and paler, less shiny
Very nice hand work! I wanted to ask you, what kind and size of thread you use to hand sewing leather? Thanks
Комментарии бы к видео, что за Кожа, чем торец обрабатываете, и что за материал приклеиваете между слоями кожи?
Это же краст. Торец токоноле. А материал - металлическая сетка с мелкой ячейкой(такие используют как фильтры для мелких частиц)
молодец,спасибо и привет из России!
Did you use canvas for burnish?
Hola, que tipo de cuero usas y de que calibre?? Grácias
Great work as always
I have watched tons of your videos hahaha
Now i want to learn some
Can you please give us the list of the tools you used? 😊
Great video instruction to learn from
Can watch your video for whole day, so nice and relaxing
Your tool very good I like tool
I love your videos! I went to your website, but I couldn't find a trifold wallet. Do you make them?
I need the website or what place to buy the leather. I want to try make a wallet by myself. Help me please
I like your work excellent
Put it on the website so I can buy it!!
Sehr gut!
Una pregunta qué es esa crema que le pones a los cantos Saludos..... respuesta
Hi, love your videos, I was wandering, is that rubber cement you’re using? Thanks
It's probably rubber cement
@@lanneydon-ell9970 Contact Cement, when starting out weldwood brand gets the job done but most leatherworkers tend to use Barge.
Hola buen día que tipo de cuero utilizas y su espesor????
Awesome 👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
good job
Very good yaar
Great project. Elegant wallet. I wonder if other material could be used (alu foul??) when will there be ab instruction on your handstitching???? Pretty please ??
No. You can't use aluminum foil. It will work harden as it flexes in your halter and start to crumble. Just spend the couple bucks and buy the stainless mesh. It's VERY cheap on eBay and alibaba/Aliexpress. (It is often sold as vaping wick.) You can get different hole spacing and different grades of stainless.
Maybe it will save somebody's life. 😜
Hermoso trabajo
The metal mesh can be a antenna for something like gprs tracking?
Very good job, thank you for showing you this. God bless you.
Nice, but I wouldn't call it 'armoured' though. What is the 'armour' protecting against? It seems to just be to add a bit of decorative contrast via the holes you punched in.
Michael Rhys rfid skimmers
Andre Chiesa Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh
I would have used copper mesh to make it like a Faraday cage to block rfid scanners though I think the stainless will do the trick.
Any good conductive metal would work, but i'd also use copper because even stainless steel will rust over time.
@@turtle79070, both copper and stainless will oxidize, but I believe the stainless will hold up better to the constant flexing of the wallet. 💜🌞🌵
wow, we would really have to say upper than awesome awesome.
because it is upper than awesome.
"Whatever you all think about it, but I really accepted it is awesome upper than awesome.
Wow really........
skill of the making this wallet makes me Really crazy .
Where do you get the stainless steel?
What weight of leather did you use?
It feels like I’m deaf in my left ear
nada a ver
What was the oz of leather that was used?
Great job, as usual. But, in time, that steel mesh will not tear the stiches apart?
The mesh doesn't go all the way to the stitches. It wouldn't tear the stitches apart if it did anyway because the stitch keeps the pieces from moving. The thread used in leather goods is extremely strong.
It's glued in place in the first minutes of the video so it's not likely to move
Either way, no, the mesh won't tear the stitches.

what spacing is your KS blades?
I wish I worked there
Hola muy buen trabajo, en mis ratos libres me justa hacer cosas,xfavor me pedirías brindar las medidas. Gracia.
Is there messenger bags?
This is going to sound really stupid but you actually appeared to use the guide makings on your cutting mat, I had not considered them accurate enough, maybe they are! 🤔
I've done that for my whole career! They're usually plenty accurate for this type of work :)
Where do you get your tools.
I personally wouldn't use screen and don't have a scanner to test this, so reaseach is in order, but I believe that as long as the screen covers both sides of the chip, you are safe. Open this wallet and you probably lose all your protection anyway. It would be smarter to line the pockets, then the cards would be protected until actually removed from the wallet. Because he glues the screen to both pieces of leather, once cracked, I doubt the screen can separate very much and might not affect it's performance. Too bad the new chips aren't affected by RFDI. To know if you have the chip that needs this armour look for the symbol that looks something like )))) but with small to large kinda like 🔊 but with no speaker. If none of your cards have this symbol, you don't need the armour. I haven't seen a machine where you tap or can wave your card over it, so I'm not sure there are any out there anymore. With love 💜 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵.
Almost all credit card machines allow you to tap your RFID card on them. LOL. Living under a rock? I used NFC/RFID payment methods with a credit card and/or my cell phone at every store I go to. Screen is a far better material than sheet/foil stock, to use in this application. It won't work harden nearly as fast as something in sheet/foil form. The few seconds you open your wallet, is not the time you need to worry about. The time your wallet is open only accounts for 0.05% of the time you have your wallet in public. It's closed in your pocket most of the time.) None of this matters because rfid theft/scanning/slimming/fraud is a non issue.
what's the purpose of that
Can I ask what is the white liquid you put it on the edges?

Nice! The name of the glue? Tell me please.
That looks like DAP Weldwood contact cement. They sell it at Home Depot.
Привет! Только если честно при просмотре тебя вспомнил))) Легкий ты на помине))) Вспомнил как ты не любишь клеить и потом пробивать)

How is a thin metal screen armor...?
What do you do with the excess pieces of leather? Like the ones you can’t really make anything of
sound doesnt work properly with headphones ? anybody else ?
No love for my left ear 😢
How thick is the leather that you use? In mm if possible😁
This is split to 3oz, not sure what that is in mm
1,2 mm
Serenity thank you sir
مصري ررروعه 😍
có bán ko vậy nhỉ
Where to buy your design?
Hell yeah. Ain’t nobody stealing my lunch money now.
my left ear is lonely
Sir, How can I buy one of your wallets?
Armored against what? That stuff won't stop much. I'm not understanding
how many stitches per inch is your sewing
Use your eyes and estimation skills. Around 6-7.
