The Easiest Way to Wet Mold Leather EVER!
It's finally here! We've been obsessively making these wet molded leather trays for months now, and thanks to our new partnership with Buckleguy we've made a full length tutorial on how to make your own beautifully DIY wet molded leather trays in the easiest way possible. Using these three part leather wet molds made from Baltic Birch, you're able to combine any two leathers you'd like to make absolutely stunning, luxurious valet trays in many different styles. We take you through the whole process, from setting up the wet mold itself to molding the leather, gluing it together, and sewig it up using a saddle stitch -- It's seriously one of my favorite leather crafting projects of all time!
You guys sold out most of Buckleguy's wet molds in under 4 hours 😎 THANK YOU for supporting the folks who support us! They're made locally, so just sign up for the email list to enter the giveaway or hit the "notify me" button on the mold you want, they'll be back in stock in a week or so - 100% worth the wait
Do they ship to the UK??
@@deanbriggs5058 they ship to Australia so I’m going to say yes. Quality products and I’ve had zero issues.
@@bradleywhite4902 excellent news, thanks for letting me know, I can spend some money now lol
how do you sign up for the contest?
you can do protection cases for mobile and tablets or custom computers ... I say many do I yourself computer with raspberry pi computers into bad cases. This is a good idea.
I just started and made a catch all, valet tray last night using your pattern. Thank you. I'm a disabled vet with PTSD and this really just gives me a few hours a day that none of that stuff bugs me. This goes way beyond patterns and videos. This is making me feel like me again. Thank you. These are really neat, I'll get one someday hopefully.
That's awesome! I also deal with PTSD...well CPTSD specifically for me... and leather craft provides the same for me :) it's a wonderful craft!
Thank you for your service. 🙂👍🇺🇲
Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service sir
Have you tried fly fishing? And in addition... fly tying? Both provide hours of peace, tranquility, and nature to ones life! Plus it can go hand in hand with leather work, and wood working. All hands on work, that provide creativity.
That was very kind of you for the shout out. I appreciate you guys. Awesome trays.
Awesome. Love the Buckle Guy! Great job
Take a drink every time you hear Buckle Guy. That's right. Drink!
I’ve been buying leather and tools from Buckle Guy for ages but had no idea they did wet moulds. Fantastic.
Same. I guess I should have ordered the catalog that pops up when you visit the site. 🤷♂️
Good of you to share this. I'm an 83 yearold hillbilly Lather crafter AND wood worker, i have been making wooden molds a long time. Holsters, knife sheaths etc.
Oh boy, I don't need another craft in my life...oh maybe, okay yes I do!! My husband loves leather so he would totally be okay with me buying everything lol.
Love these trays. The two-tone looks stunning!
Crazy beautiful, and thank you for being so clear about the leathers you're using, threads sizes, chisel sizes, etc. OMG! That is soooo helpful to newbies like me. Thank you! Awesome and exciting stuff.
I really enjoyed this video. Love the simplicity of the mold... and the classic professional outcome is Awesome!!!
They are so beautiful and the process seems to be something that maybe I can do. Thank you for sharing 😊
Love hearing your excitement, Eric! I’m sure this partnership will bring great things ahead!!
Thanks for this excellent demo on the molds. The trays look fantastic!
Thank you for your teaching videos! I’ve wondered how to mold leather for a while :) good things to come from this❤️
Great tips and love the attention to details in your process. Keep'em coming.
Hammertime! Let's continue!
I’ve been eyeing these for months and am so glad to see the process start to finish! Thank you!
Same. I've been eyeing these molds for awhile, but I wasn't 100% sure if I wanted to spend the money to try them until now.
I have been using buckle guy off and on for a few years, but really dug through their site after seeing your video. I had no idea they had so much stuff! Definitely will be using those guys a lot now ! As for this video, those molds are AWESOME ! I do a very simplistic tray, but I will be getting me some molds, this will sure up my game ! They look so easy to use, and do such a fantastic job forming the leather. Great video, and thank you for explaining so much. You guys are awesome helping us with info and instruction!
Buckle Guy is great for hard-to-find hardware. Never wanted to do leather trays before; now I do!
These came out so beautiful. Thanks for sharing this video.
I'm new to leather crafting and am super impressed with your detailed videos. Thank you for your time and for sharing your talents.
Love your videos and beautiful work. You make it look so easy and fun. Leather work just might have to be added to my hobby list.
Been watching your videos a couple days now. Ive been making leather bracelets and want to get into larger projects. Your videos are so thorough and easy to understand, you could easily be a teacher. I just Liked AND Subscribed👍
I'm so excited for you guys! I will check them out. Love the trays! 🔥🔥
A couple of cool tips: You can resurface old punching blocks to restore the original surface, and you can make really nice handbags from these molds also by splitting the dies with the leather halfway (along the width), leaving the top open.
The trays look really nice. Plus, it's really practical to have these around the house, they keep the lil things organized.
I have been planning to make a leather tray for some time, but your video has given me some extra inspiration. Very high quality appearance to the finished product 👍
I absolutely love this technique. I've been craving the chance to dive into something like this and your video has put me over the edge! Thanks for this great video!
Great stuff and I am glad to find new sources for leather.
Buckleguy is the best! I love that they carry leather with the back side finished. It makes everything look so clean. I recently learned to use a sewing machine and want to get one of their Dude’s Who Sew T-shirts 🤣
Those are beautiful trays. Really nice work.
I've been making this type of mould for about 10 years now. My advice is to fix the mould to the base by screwing from under the base. This way nothing marks the leather.
That's how I have done mine I always use stainless steel screws anyway and coat with a bit of wax to put them in so when removing they come out easily.
Yes, and I always cut a few darts in the leather on the curves which gets rid of any wrinkles. I use a straight cut router bit to cut the mould shape from the top clamp part then line the positive and negative cut edges of the wood with leather for a super smooth finish. A 5mm bit does the job then you can decide how thick to line the cuts depending on the leather you are going to work with. Happy moulding!
I've been doing this for a couple of years. I'm using 8 oz veg tan. I'll get it molded and let set until it is not completely dry, just slightly damp. Set your oven at 200. Once to temp turn the oven off and place your mold/leather assembly in the oven and let cool in the oven to room temperature. I have found that the oven hardens the leather more than just air dry. You may want to try it to see if there is a difference in results. Weaver Leather has a good video making leather armor which is the same process.
Buckleguy are great. Been using them for 2/3 years and have no complaints. They ship to me here in Ireland no problem and in great time. Now they just have to open a European branch so I dont have to pay import tax.
Love the Speed Hammer :} Thank You so much for teaching this.
Things is getting great video and the Buckle Guy wet molds are incredible!!!
Wow, that's beautiful!
Those are awesome ❤️‼️thank you for showing how to do beautiful things ‼️
I’m excited about your collab with BuckleGuy! These bowls are so nice and would make wonderful gifts! I’m definitely getting some molds for my son and I to use. :-)
I love buckleguy hardware! Always high quality and so durable. It’s the only stuff I use for dog gear
Sooooo cuuuute!!!!! Many thx for sharing your skills!!
I love buckleguy! I've wondered about the molds so it's nice to see the them in use, just ordered one of the big pill shaped. Take care and love your videos!
Thanks for sharing, I absolutely loved this video!
I am so excited that you are partnered with Buckleguy, love shopping there. I love that all of their panels are finished on the bottom.
We are too, their material selection is almost overwhelming - we've got 3 months of videos planned out already just from having access to their warehouse to look around for 2 hours haha!
@@Corter love your channel, your doing a great job, made a few of your zip wallets, Great pattern
These are so neat. Anxious to try!
Like the concept! Especially for deeper trays.
Those molds make this kind of project look so much easier. I've been a Buckle Guy customer for about a year now, and I'll be using them a lot in the future. And buying patterns from Corter Leather. ;)
Thank you so much for this lesson! X
Nice job. I made my wife and I leather tooled trays. Love them. I wish I would have thought of useing 2 pices looks very nice.
👍🏻Beautiful trays. I think I found my next project.
Boy that came out nice! Great job!
Looks wonderful 😍
Great job! I Love BuckleGuy!!!!
Nice leather work, for those who put their hopes in their own hands. Please send those molds to me. I need them most.
Getting my shop work area set up as a new leather worker. This will be fun to do!!
Hope they get more in stock soon. I’m getting my Christmas ideas locked in soon 😁
We just started doing leather work and would love the molds.
Love the videos, love the watch! Thanks.
Awesome tutorial!! Thank you!!!
I am a newer member to your channel...I have to say I am HOOKED. I have not made anything as of yet..I came across your site as I was looking to learn about the craft. Your site is my favorite by far. You explain everything in detail! It's great 👍. I can't believe that 90% of the molds are sold out already..hopefully I win a set & they get stock made available soon. Thanks for all you do!
Great looking trays.
Love that you mentioned Bedos. Dude is a legend!!!
Nicely done! I will give one a try!
Great video! You’re my favorite UA-cam channel for leather work! 😃🙏🤘🎸👍🏻 🐄

Great video ,never really thought about wet moulds until now,glad to see that buckleguy does international shipping,as here in the UK leather crafting shops are few on the ground,cheers ,look forward to more of your videos.
Awesome video, thank you!
beautiful work brother! thank u
Colonial tan is my favorite color of Ritza. It goes so well with leather of any color.
it's so good! First time seeing it, absolutely love it
Trabalho Maravilhoso! Parabéns!Adorei!
I’ve been buying Buckleguy for a long time.
Can't wait to try
I love when my UA-cam worlds collide - I'm a big fan of Steve @ Bedo's. Thanks for a cool/interesting video!
Amazing as usual and I have some awesome gift ideas for these if I win. Plus just more working in the craft. Thanx so much!!!
I have been making and using molds like this for many years. WAX your molds with 3 to 4 coats of a clear wax, buffing it clean after each coat. This will keep the molds good for many many years and glue will never stick. I have done carbon fiber and glass the same way.
Very nice I like the three piece design
I have wet moulded up to 5" deep. I found that is about the limit.
If you're using unbacked leather, you can use PVA glue at the molding stage and it will come out already as one piece. I also used to dry them in a 50 degC hotbox, which really sets the collagen in the leather.
Excellent
Wow! Is amazing!
Stunning 😍
Oooh so nice!
Great project!
I do A lot of wet molding but really like this mold.
Darrell

Beautiful. Those would make great mens’ gifts for Christmas. My guys need a place to put there keys and stuff that comes out of there pockets. Love to make that!
Women enjoy the trays just as much, jewelry, keys, etc.
Those are really cool… they look like they would make great pencil or marker holders for school tables…

I love the look of these trays and have been wanting to pick up a few of these molds for awhile now so you have me sold on them. I'll have to wait until they get them back in stock so I can start to beef up my stock for the coming craft market year. Also looking forward to when those Corter Pounders hit the market
