    @deepdiver849 24 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I so appreciate this...just one quick question, would stitching be any different, if we use reverse pricking iron on the other side so the slanted piercing on both sides of the leather be fully aligned, or it doesn't matter when the slanted pricks cross each other like what you showed? I have both obverse and reverse pricking irons...

    • @TeranAtelier
      @TeranAtelier 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Using reverse irons for the back piece would certainly make the holes look a bit nicer. When stitching you should use the first method similar to if you punched through the leather only from the front side. However, this method would add a lot of time compared to the just punching through the glued pieces from the front side and the asthetic benefits on the back side may only barely be noticeable.

  • @kemitchell
    @kemitchell 24 วันที่ผ่านมา

    There are often more kinds of leather in shoes than in bags or small goods, but several of the kinds you show often come from different parts of the same kind of tanned hide. For example, midsoles and heel lifts often come from the same hides. Stiffeners may also come from the bellies or other thinner parts of those same hides, or from upper leather hides. Makers will also choose which parts of hides from which to cut different upper pieces very carefully, considering not just thickness and blemishes but also grain direction and orientation of the pieces, so they stretch in the right directions. With such large pieces to cut, and two at a time, using whole hides becomes more important, even when using precut components like the "bottom stuff" you demonstrated.

    • @TeranAtelier
      @TeranAtelier 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      It is possible to thread the needle back through the punctured area but this can still leave the thread looking damaged. The best way is to incorporate into your stitching sequence, to pull the first thread in the same direction and same time you are passing the second needle through the hole. In this way it is not possible to puncture the thread.

    • @TeranAtelier

      You only need to burnish until you get your desired level of smoothness/shininess. Normally 10-20 seconds is plenty.

      It depends on the quality of the edge paint and the desired level of smoothness. With my edge paint, three times is good enough but I will do a fourth if I want it to look really good.

      Bonded leather reinforcement such as Salamander bonded leather which I use work well as a reinforcement/stiffening layer, there is a 0.4mm thick version that works great. Otherwise you can try gluing two pieces of chrome tan back to back which will improve the stiffness.
