The bag is awesome. love the music. I am curious about the glasses. Just turned 70 and i may need that real soon.
Thank you very much! You can search for "jewelers visor" on amazon and a bunch will come up. Here is a link to the same lighting system I have on mine. www.amazon.com/Quasar-Lighting-System-Optivisors-ELP-558-00/dp/B0058ECQ46 It is not where I got mine but it is the same one. If you get the light make sure you get a visor that it will fit. The light system looks pretty universal but just make sure. Thank you, I hope this helps.

Thanks for the quick answer. After I asked saw how long ago you made this. Thought I might be waiting for awhile
@@takeawalk5416 😀no, I'm here still doing my thing. It is fun having my lil channel and helping people. Enjoy!
That's really nice, I think that would look great grey and black with a dragon on the front, same style. Awesome work!
Thank you Samantha! I agree. Plus, I have never worked with grey on leather. It would be a fun challenge to find the right tone.
That music is INSANELY irritating! I am in love with this bag though so I’m definitely subscribing! ❤
Funny you should say that. I was thinking of this topic just the other day. I have been using less music lately for this same reason. You never know how people are going to like the music. I surely would not listen to these tracks in my spare time. :) Thank you for the interest and sub!
Beautiful work
Thank you Ashley! So truly appreciate your kind words!
What an artist. I want one but I want it Electric bubble gum purple and high viz green.
Thank you very much! I just googled the colors you mentioned and then waited for my eyes to adjust back after looking at viz green. to write you back. Those are some fantastic colors for sure. Purple is my favorite color and now I am aware of a new version. I wonder if there is even dye for leather in those colors. Thank you for the very kind words!😂
@baronleathercraft 😂 was thinking same thing Lol 👀
I'm delighted with your work, congratulations❤
Thank you very much! It truly means a lot to hear that. Thank you!
I'm from Brazil and I really like your work! Congratulations!
Muito obrigado Jorberth! Send my best to Brazil! Beautiful country and the home of Antonio Jobim. 👍
Amazing!!! A lot of beautiful details a lot of work put in to this piece. Appreciate your craftsmanship. 👌👌
Thank you very much Violett! I am enjoying your jewelry making and designs. :)
Wow! So beautiful ❤. Such perfect precision, and attention to detail! Gorgeous design ❤.
Thank you very much! Practice and learning from past mistakes. :) Plus, I am a big fan of "The four agreements" from Toltec Wisdom.
Agreement 4: Always Do Your Best.
"Toltec believes that if one does their best in any given moment, they will be able to avoid self-judgment and regret." so, whenever I take a short cut or become lazy when working on a craft, when I am done I am disappointed in myself knowing that I could of tried harder. That can create an unhappy state. If you try your best and it still does not come out great you know you gave your best effort and you avoid beating yourself up for hours on end. :) Sorry for this long response but your comment made me ponder my motivation and reminded me of the Toltec four agreements and to try to abide by them as much a possible. It helps to create a peaceful state.:) Thank you. :)
Wow! Amazing!
Thank you very much! So much fun to make.
that is absolutely beautiful

Muhteşem olmuş.Arkada deriyi kabarttiktan sonra dolgu malzemesi olarak ne kullandiniz
Çok teşekkür ederim! Deri tozu ve kauçuk çimentoyu karıştırıp kullandım. Deri tozunuz yoksa buradan aldım.

Thank you for the quick response. I'm looking forward to getting to your skill level. I'm working on my first completed project now (messed up a couple of other ideas). I am curious where you picked up that hardware, more specifically the lock. Please and thank you.
Thank you for the kind words. :) Practice is the only way. I get the same feeling looking at the work of the magnificent artist that are on this planet. Very talented people out there. You never stop learning.
They sell those locks at Tandy and Springfield. Here is a link. :

They seem less expansive at Tandy and more choices. Enjoy! Thank youagain!
Thank you.
Nice job. Liki liki like it❤❤❤
Thank you very much!
Bon travail !
Merci beaucoup!
I'm just about half way thru your video, was just wondering what that clay is? Also why you're using it? Please, ty
It is actually leather dust mixed with rubber cement. It makes a great filler. after I push the leather out from the back to make it 3D I fill the space in with the leather dust filler. Then I put interior leather over it. It works great! Thank you for watching the video and feel free to ask anything. :)
What kind/width of leather do you use ? Your knife seems to cut it like butter !
I use Hermann Oak leather for the entire purse. For the front piece with the octopus I use 5-6 oz leather. I would not use anything thicker because it will be hard to do the embossing. 4-5 oz might even be better for this section. For the piece with the male latch just below the octopus I would not use anything less the 8oz because it will fold in from the pressure of the gusset. The gusset is 5-6 oz leather. I hope this helps! :) Thank you for the question.
Beautiful work. I just started tooling leather. What was that you put on the back of the octopus to preserve the embossing? Looked like skived flesh mixed with glue.
Thank you, That was basically correct! It is leather dust mixed with rubber cement. You can get it here:

Have fun with leathercrafting!
@@baronleathercraft Thank you!
Оригинально сделано
Спасибо!
can i ask about the total working time? Thank you!
Thank you for the question. I wish I had a good answer, I kind of loose myself when I am working on projects so I forget to pay attention to the time. I would say 2 or 3 days. Less if you work nonstop and I like to let the antique paste dry over night. Putting in the clasp on the cover can be a lil tricky. make sure you don't cut away to much material because the rivets have to attach to something. :) I hope this helps. :)
Exceptional execution on this project and the video complexity is top notch. Question: I'd never seen the relief you did with the ball-stylus and the body of the octopus before. What is the material you used to fill the back after the relief work was done? It looked like glue or possibly epoxy and maybe sawdust? I'd love to give this technique a shot.
Thank you! I love doing relief! I use rubber cement and leather dust. You can get the leather dust here.

It is very fun. Mix it until it is like peanut butter. Do not use to thick of leather or it will be difficult. Thank you for the comment.
@@baronleathercraft Leather dust, now I see. Thanks!!
Fantastic work and design...may I ask where you sourced those unusual large swivels..can't find on Springfield, Weaver or Tandy? :-)
Thank you very much! Do you mean my swivel Knife? It is a Barry King tool. They have a fatter one. I got the smaller size. Thank you for the question. I hope this helps. :) Or did you mean the clasp. They have it at Springfield and Tandy. tandyleather.com/products/turn-lock-bag-clasps?_pos=2&_sid=e51f3d2a3&_ss=r

I want a leather case for the pencil or pen, where did you buy it? I love this video and great work, congratulations
Thank you! If you mean the leather surrounding the stylus I use to trace patterns, I made it. It is a piece of leather with holes on each side and then I laced them up like a sneakers. First wet the leather, when it dries it gets tighter.

Thank you very much! Спасибо! :)
Хочу такую!!!
Вот что я чувствовал! Большое спасибо!
What did you put on the back of the octopus's body to help keep the shape? I looked like a clay or sand mixture.
Thank you for your question Randy, I used leather dust. I bought it here, www.springfieldleather.com/leather-Dust-1-Pound

Tandy seems cheaper today. I hope this helped! :)
Beatuful but the vidio is too hurry? Make it slow plz
Thank you. I agree but the video is already a half hour long. If I brought it down to real-time the video would be way to long for most people. If you have any questions about what I did feel free to ask. :) Thank you!
@@baronleathercraft thanks I just want to injoy the details.
@@synwannleathercraft8506 Thank you! I am not a fan of the speed motion as well. :) I checked out your crafts very nice! I would love to visit Egypt! Such history!
no pattern ??
The pattern came from: Pattern - Leather Crafters Journal Volume 27, No.5 . Everything but the octopus. Enjoy!
произведение искусства
Большое спасибо! Искренне благодарен! Иногда вещи сходятся. :)
Like what you made .don't like the fast pase of the video.
Thank you for the kind words. I agree about the fast pace. If I did it in real time the video would be way longer then it is now. Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you again!
The speed can be adjusted by then viewer. I watch all videos on x2 speed. If I need it broken down I'll slow it down. Good video
@@ricHard.18 Thank you very much and a good idea! :)
Is it hard to sell it?
Actually I have sold 4 of them. 3 while vending and 1 on etsy. they seem to sell every few months with my limited exposure. I have to make another one as I sold my latest one last month. It has been worth making for me. Thank you for the question.
@@baronleathercraft Thank you for your answer.
@@novizivot3631 Sure thing! Thank you...
@@baronleathercraft the bag is beautiful. I have been thinking myself to start with this. .)
@@novizivot3631 the toughest part for me is mounting the lock housing to the front of the octopurse. I actually drill a hole on the bottom of the clasp in order to secure it better to the purse with rivets. It also has to be molded to the fixture by wetting the leather and embossing around the clasp. If you decide to make one and you want some assistance just let me know. :) Plus if you find a better way to do it I would love to know that as well. :) Thank you.
