WOW! You need to model more often, Mr. Nick! 😉😉😉😉
Shawna Fernandez haha thanks 🤗🤗👍🏽
I second that notion! His wife might get jealous, though. I know I would! Lol!
lol ..
I agree! I was looking forward to some modeling stills at the end!😉
Yes that was one Fine looking body......I, um....mean belt, yes Belt....lol
You totally need to make a shaped, large, thick block that is mounted on the buckle piece. Take that block and send it to Bobby Duke to carve the face into... That would be awesome as well!
Love this rather different project from you!
Keep up the awesome
YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
Kool
I already though you looked great, but now... wow
Looking jaw-dropping in that belt...but of course im here for the tasty craftsmanship.:-))
hehe .. Thank you x
Me too lol
I don't think any of us expect you to turn every time you make a video. I think it's awesome that you want to try new things now and again....besides, it's your shop and you're the boss, heehee. I thought the belt and buckles be were great. Keep up the good work. Everyone have a great Easter weekend.
Great project. just a thought maybe try and fill your brand with enamel paint? Black for your glasses. Maybe help bring out some details. Love the channel.
Fantastic buckles! As a 2nd generation leatherworker, you did great on your first attempt at belt making. Ive only ever made a hand-tooled, leather covered belt buckle. Keep working and wear the belt and rotate the buckles out. Be proud of ALL your projects! Thank you for your use of Tandy products. They are the best and only supplier many leatherworkers use.
Wouldn’t mind a peak at the car in the garage. Great project as always!!
gavin merrigan haha I’ll add something up on my other channel soon 👍🏽
It is nice to see you start from the beginning in a new area and how you progress in learning and skills. So keep this coming!
Watching you play with the kinetic sand and the fascinated look on your face was just utterly adorable. I love that you just genuinely enjoy experimenting and sort of mucking about with different materials and techniques and projects. It's absolutely delightful to watch.
As the phrase goes "like a child in a candy store who's parents just said go get what you want" that joyful and amazed look all in one.
Good result, yes always best use separate buffing wheels for metal. I could probably redress those buffing wheels for you next time I come over. Cheers, Jim
Nick, I hope that was not one of the Mrs's good frying pans. Try using the pewter,wood & resin together to make a project.
Thank you for sharing all of your creative pursuits. You should wear it, the belt and buckles look great!
Thanks for choosing the latter and sharing your fun experiment. It looks good Nick.
Is there no end to your talents?
Can't wait for the chainsaw ice carving!! 😊
smilertiler1 haha brilliant
Nick make what ever you want on your channel. When you make something it always makes my day a little more pleasant. Keep up the great videos
The lighting was much, much better with the special lighting. You don't have dark eyes now! loved the video; it was a nice change.
I liked that video, you are forgiven for not doing a turning project. Keep experimenting and keep up the good work.
Nick's crazy ideas :).
I like people without stereotypical thinking, we would still be on the trees :).
Love watching you experiment with new things, your attitude is inspiring, thanks for sharing Nick.
Who knew you looked so good in your britches? I was already crushing on your personality and wee bit of nerdy ways! Love to the misses!
love it Nick i did some casting a few years back and i found out that using plarster was the best for getting good detail in the finished item
cheers ian
The lights look great! Makes all the difference
Love it when you experiment - it's how we humans learn. I experiment with making Greeting Cards etc, and not everything works. Even so, it helps a local hospital cancer charity, so it's not all bad.
Love that you are trying new things.
Love the belt buckles and the belts. I love watching your videos. Keep up the great work.
Fun project! Thanks for sharing with us. One tip, do not use glue when you fold the leather over and attach to the buckle. If you ever need to change it you won't be able to now 😉
We made pewter belt buckles in Shop/Industrial arts in high school. We did sand casting with fine play sand for detail. It was lots of fun! My favorite class was shop cuz I'm a tom-boy. Lol 😉
I do have to agree with other ladies... You should do more modeling for us. To see your projects of course. 😎
I like how you try different things and experiment different ways of doing it. 💖👍 keep up the good work!
I don't know why but something about his videos always help me go to sleep lol it's so weird because I really wanna see the end but I just never really make it there
I find it's easy to fall asleep to too, it's probably his calm demeanor.
Woah hunni dem guns tho 💪... love your tattoos you need to take your jacket off more often. 😏🤭lol
We have a Tandy Leather store here in Tulsa, Oklahoma. I Love Tandy Leather. Whenever I need to make a new belt for the Renaissance Fair in Muskogee, Oklahoma I go to Tandy to get the materials. The staff are Super friendly and will help in any way they can. They even let me use their punches, awls and hammers to build the belts right there. I can't say enough good things about Tandy. They even have pelts that you can make bags out of! They are AWESOME!!!
I used to do leather tooling as a youngster. It’s fun. Made wallets, and such.
Yessiree, love that belt buckle modeling. Very cool process to making a belt and buckle. Great job! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love binge watching your videos.
Always enjoy your videos and this one was no different. Nice change of pace. I would love to see a wood and pewter project!
I'm not entirely sure how I even got through my day-to-day life before I discovered your channel. Thank you, Nick, for restoring meaning to my erstwhile empty and meaningless existence.
Like the fact that you try loads of different things and for a first try it looks OK.
Might have been a little better if you dont polish the face at all just the surrounding metal.
Love the Mustang in the back ground and I will ask again if you could do a video on your different forms of transport even the old scooter.............Please
Pretty please
The lighting is much better! Shadows are greatly reduced. Please keep experimenting with new project ideas. Your willingness to try new stuff and not be afraid to go to plan B or C in the process (and sharing that with us) is one of the things I love about this channel! And yes please share more about the car. I have a '72 Nova myself so muscle always attracts my eye LOL.
Mind? i LOVE the different things you do. "Maker". it's the creativity and curiousness that is fascinating to me. as an actor, i keep the sense of creativity active by studying and watching other creators, not other actors. this is what a coach told me to do..he even recommended i read about Jung. hahaha
The lighting brings out your gorgeous eye color😀
Oh and for those playing along at home Tandy leather and Tandy TRS-80 computers and Radio Shack are very much connected. Tandy Leather bought Radio Shack in 1962.
Yeah, you can use a buffing wheel and a compound with metal, just use different ones next time than your one that you use for wood working. I've done some copper and silver work in the past, but I have not done any work on pewter. With the leather clips you were talking about, I've never seen anyone like them since they tend to fall out over time too.
Video quality was on point! Love the little ASMR you through in too. Nice to see a different type of project. Keep up the awesomeness!
I liked this project! Now I want to play around with pewter.
For for lighting, I'm no expert but I believe you want 3 lights for the best look. One on your background, one diffused at an angle to your subject (you or your projects), and another at the opposite angle to cancel out any shadows.
The new lighting makes the difference! Where it is great. The project was cool!
WOW! melted down pewter looks like liquid silver its awesome! and its good to mix things up it stops things from getting stale but I like whatever vids you make anyway.
That warm really metallic pewter smell will always stay with me after a school project back in the day
Tandy Leather ROCKS!!!! I have several leather stamping tools from them!!!
I love when people taking become diverse on their channels. I actually think the belt came out really good. Thumbs up to you.
The peeling of the plastic! So satisfying. :3
Gorgeous little experiment! Love it! And thank you SO much for savoring the peelies on that stencil!
Nice project Nick turned out well enough, I"m trying not to stick to one subject in my shop also. I did find I was trying to move you over with my mouse to get a look at the car behind you, 68 69 Camaro I believe hard to tell, good god man that car, KIT and not to Mention a Wraith I've seen in that garage, We might need a tour of that car collection someday ! maybe try putting that lighting behind your camera pointing at you to maybe defuse some of the shadows. Waiting on you next Project.
I loved this. I like how you are not afraid or ashamed to try just about anything. The belt looked good. Cute figure on the model. HAH
Hi. Nice buckle. I think you are on the boarder of an ‘oddly satisfying video’ with this one. Thank you
Kiki Sakelaropoulos thats what i was thinking! Oddly satisfying. It had me wanting to get some. Pewter to melt and blue sand to play with
Cool project. It's cool to see you branching out more. Keep up the good work.
Nick, you so totally missed an opportunity when re-melting the last bit with your face on it... Think The Wizard of Oz. "I'm melting".
The buckle turned out quite decent. If you do this again, try making a mold where the stamp will form negative space, like it's embossed. That would let you give it a high shine without destroying the details.
A new male model in the making 😁. Love the way you try different things and a big thumbs up for that and a pretty cool belt
Im obsessed with lighting...i do crazy cool photography.
If you want to mold Pewter you should try "Mold Max 60" It's a high heat resistance 2 part silicone. You can use it up to 560F/294C. It really picks up detail well.
I was hoping the second one was going to be your circular logo - think that would look great too. I love that you aren't afraid to try things -
Great video! Learning, humour and craftsmanship all jam-packed into one awesome video! Keep up the great work Nick!
You look like a Calvin Klein model! Belt turned out great, and I would love to see more of these unusual projects. Keep on trying the odd stuff.
They look great and look amazing on you! Awesome!
Ive learnt so much nick thank you. I like you changing it about although i watch every one anyway. You have really done great Nick watched from when you were starting out and wow look at you now. Will be watching sunday on MI and look forward to meeting you at MC. Thanks Nick for everything your doing for the community :-)
I ENJOY WATCHING YOU DO ANYTHING....
Good video showing the learning process. Keep it up you are a true renaissance man, learning as you go.
You’re a brave man for chucking a frying pan behind you where the Camaro was sat
Connecticut sand
There are buffing wheels and brush wheels made for metal and buffing compounds too. I know your in the UK, but if you can get your hands on some knife making tools and compounds, they work great.
That's cool Nick. Learning a new skill is challenging but so rewarding. Glad you shared with us. Hope to see more metal works in your stuff.
Love watching you experiment!
I kept waiting for you to melt your can of Yorky Grit...........
As always was great to watch
It's alway good to try out something different. Glad you showed the mistakes you made along the way.... We all can learn from them. Great video Nick. Thanks Mate 👍👍
Use a buffing wheel rake to clean up your buffing wheel. Or a saw blade. Do it all the time when I clean up my brass for my knives.🤘
Daaaaaamn you look good! Stumbled across your videos and have been binge watching for a few days now.
Casting things is really fun, def do more if you enjoy it! Can make so many things and learn how to make different kind of molds, try using casting sand and styrofoam, I forget what channel it was but they made brass knuckle paper weights with that technique
Great job with everything! Very nice video quality and love that your trying new things!!
You can get cheap buffing wheels for a bench grinder or arbor at most well stocked auto supply store. Also, heating the buckle before bonding with the pewter might yield better results, like heating copper pipes before applying solder. Lastly, the edges of the belt should be waxed and burnished with a wooden tool to make it last.
Extremely clear video and lighting quality. Good job!!!
I love it when you jump out of the box . Grommets ? The silver bits in the holes . Keep the camera above the belt, Nick , or you might be in trouble at home . lol
Love the buckles! I like how you aren't afraid to try new things. As for the modeling at the end....well...💥very nice work💥 I have to say the tattoos peeking from under your shirt makes me wonder what they are. Love watching your videos 💙
The new things are the best the buckle is great try the pewter with some wood turning projects that would be amazing 😉
I just found out my daughter is also subscribed! Small world! Love your art!
a camping stove and a frying pan. i love it
brandon navarre lol 🤪
It worked!
After seeing you model that belt I cannot look at you the same way Mr. Z WOW 😍😍 Mrs. Z is one lucky gal.
hahaha thanks Arlene. Im blushing right now lol . take care x
@@nickzammeti You as well and Happy Holidays 🎄keep up with the funky videos ❤
Damnnnn!!! Someone's got a body on em!!!! It's not often I'm impressed but you're quite a catch! Who knew that what the chest down looked like lol...
I would use it every day I love them both. You can sell them now to all your crazy fans. Lol I love you nick.
And where you glued and riveted the belt to the buckle, you can put a couple of press studs about where you put the rivet, that way you can change the buckles anytime.
I’m so glad I stumbled upon your channel. Your work is great and you’re nice on the eyes😂
Good job. It is always good to try other things so that you will not get burned out on the same stuff. Keep it coming
Looks really good when wearing it.
Holy belt buckle buffing, Batman!
Great video Nick, I loved seeing you branch out and do a bit of metal work. Loved the wish machine too! As a metal worker, I always like to see that incorporated into what you do :) Well done!
Great build Nick. Like the catalog pose haha 👍
Great video Nick! I love watching your experiments and your waffling. Keeping doing what you do.
That model shot..wow!
Seriously talented , looks fab
This is a cool idea mate
