- Whether crafting a belt or slim wallet, you need to take special consideration into the leather thickness you use for your projects. MM and ounce measurements can be confusing, but this video will help you demystify the thickness process.
*QUICK TIP*
Remember that 1 Oz. = 0.4 mm. So to calculate your leather thickness in mm simply multiply your leather weight by 0.4.

This is exactly how all videos should be made. You covered all the information without a lot of editing. I don't like the latest gimmicks like ASMR for entertainment because I want to learn how to get better at working leather. Thank you.
Silly US. I'm from the US and I automatically assumed it should've been measured in millimeters. Great video! Thanks for the helpful info!
Congratulations.
Your explanations is very important.
Thank you for the conversion information - it is helpful! I’ve started making things with leather, like bags and wallets, and I’m having fun with it, but having trouble finding leather to purchase. (Im in the middle of the US, in a small town). When you showed (cut into!) the folio, I remembered that I had a similar one that I found in a t(rift store for $1. It never occurred to me that it might be leather, but it is! It has the right feel, and even the smell. I’ve enjoyed using it, but will now appreciate it even more.
great information thanks a lot tanner
Poor portfolio 😭 i need one like that and I cannot find a quality one
Thank you very much for a very informative and interesting video 👏👍, it has answered a few questions for me.
Thank you again
Sam
Amazing information. Thank you
Very very helpful but it hurt to see you cut that beautiful portfolio for the sake of showing us🥺. Thank you
Amazing information, thank you so much! What thickness would I be looking for when deciding on leather for the sleeves of a varsity jacket? Best regards, Levi 😊
This was awesome
Thanks for the tips! I have been trial-and-erroring a standard bifold wallet. Finally, I am happy with the dimensions and the leather thickness. Trouble is, now I want to try and make it out of better leather, but the one I want is softer than what I have been practicing with. Should I order the softer leather a bit thicker, to account for the lost stiffness of the wallet, or does slickness come first? My goal is a product that will last at least a decade.
He cut beautiful portfolio😱😱😱
Thank you so much.
What is the ideal thickness of the upper made of cow leather for the slipper/sandal?
I'm having a ton of trouble finding the 1mm leather you mention at the end when you show the blue interior wallet. Any Advice?
Is there a technic or an agent to add stiffness to my leather without adding another layer?
👏
Respect for slashing that porfolio for the sake of quality helpfull video
Why don’t you make videos reviewing your own products (Pegai), because I really want to show my support but I can’t find any real videos of anyone reviewing them.. peace and blessing
