Made me wonder what you will use for the inside :) P.S. I'm wondering if perhaps throwing it into a pot of hot water and then leaving out to dry wouldn't help in getting that really hard, tight surface?
I started making these and I always wondered about this. But I use exotics so I’m afraid of messing them up. What I do is modify each pattern for each exotic hide. Each hide has its tendency to stretch more or less than others. Beautiful work! This actually inspired me to do it.
We've tossed it around a bunch, haven't cracked it with a bat though. I think it would hold up pretty well, but maybe a great idea or a follow up video
I though that making a video of us cutting watch straps, coasters, mouse pads, keychains, dog collars, bracelets, guitar pick holders, camera straps, swatch samples or tote bag handles wasn't relevant in this video. But what do I know? 🤷
Dude its like a vintage baseball and i really love baseball
Yes! That's what we were going for :

We did end up soaking the ball after and heating with a heat gun. Did just that!

Will these be sold on the website or are they just for the competition?
We have no plans to sell these, just offering a free template for people to make them at home
@Popov Leather what thread do you use for the baseballs?
we use tiger thread (braided, waxed polyester thread)
@@popovleather much appreciated!
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Would buy instantly.
Hey, I'm curious what size hole punch is that? And where did you get it from
Sinabroks sells these, 1.5mm hole size
Awesome !!!
Being a baseball pitcher, this was extremely satisfying. Those seams looked jacked up to break off a nice curve. Have you played catch with it?

Popov Leather haha! Most definitely! btw, I came by you guys from Dave (Figboot). I’m a huge fountain pen aficionado. Have a great day!
Very cool! Dave's a great guy!
Why did you waste so much leather?
we don't just throw the remainder away 😂
