Making a Stitching Pony for Leatherwork
Spm el psicologo q pesado
Cheers
Really well crafted and good looking just as a piece of high end wood working. The one issue with ponies that have large knobs on the side, however, is that your thread loop sometimes gets snagged on the knobs while you're stitching. If they could be made tapered and flush (or slightly inset) knobs to avoid this, it would be perfection.
Thanks Steve for your great comments and my wife is constantly using the stitching pony. I like your ideas about the knobs cheers
Wow! Beautiful work. I’ve seen a lot of these made, but yours earns 1st place by a good margin 👍 Subscription earned.
Thanks so much really glad you liked it and thanks for subscribing
Looks great! What is the material for the drawers at 13:55?
Thanks so much I 3D printed the drawers in PLA
Really enjoyed this Steve! Creating and expressing yourself gives so much fulfillment, and you can do it in so many ways.
Thanks so much Christian being creative is part of me and all of us cheers
Love it! Looks awesome, and i like how you use different tools and techniques for the different parts. And who does not want a Shaper now!! 🤩 Took a while for me to watch it. Sorry! -but was saving it for the big tv, and not just on my phone one the bus to work 😛. And it was worth it 🔥
Thanks so much Thor glad you liked it. Cheers man
0:39 May you share where you got this work table from?
Hi there the bench is a Black and Decker Workmate they have been around for years and are still available thanks for watching
Is there a place where a workshop would allow me to use there machines like you’ve done and bring my own wood?
Of course
Thats a beautiful tool box, Steve. such clever design ideas with the little trays for each process. I'm sure Sally will love using it.
Thanks Andrew glad you like and yes Sally loves it !!!
🗣 grovemade doesnt cost that much 🗣
It does if you get it sent to the uk !
Really enjoyed this! I’ve lost my ‘mojo’ of late and this has helped me feel a inspired!
Thanks for watching glad you’ve got some inspiration back
Beautiful! The project and your message!
Thanks so much Melody

I tried to send you a pic of the table I built like yours but I could not figure out how to so I had to make a short video 😂 pretty work as always 💪❤️
@danielmoore7039 thanks Daniel send the table pic / video to stevebellcreates@gmail.com I’d love to see it
@danielmoore7039 hi Daniel send the pic video
@danielmoore7039 hi Daniel send the pic / video to stevebellcreates@gmail,com I’d love to see it
Great build Steve. It came out really nice. Loved the designs and those little bits to cover up the voids and knot holes.
Thanks so much I’m really pleased with how it turned out
What a beautiful toolbox for your lovely wife. I always appreciate how you use reclaimed wood for most of your projects and make something beautiful out of them. I've been listening to the back catalogue of The Three Northern Makers podcast and just got to the episode where you and Pierre talk about what your second channels would be about if you had them. I think you've done a great job of weaving in your mental health advice into your woodworking videos and it really makes them something special and more interesting than "I've made this project today". Keep up the great work!
Oh thanks so much Ben I’m really glad you enjoyed the video. Yes I love to reuse old wood that otherwise would be sent to the tip. I did really think about starting a new channel all about life and mental wellbeing but decided to sneek some of that into my videos I hope to do more of that kind of thing as us men don’t really look after our mental health that well. Anyway thanks so much for watching and listening cheers Ben
Love it Steve, when you making me one??
Thanks John we can make one together this weekend!!
Mate that’s incredible I love the end result and I bet your wife loved it too. You’ve got some nice kit there I especially like the shaper origin. I’ve had my eye on one of those for a few years now but just a bit out of my budget. Great video fella 👍🏻
Thanks so much your very kind. Yes the shaper is such a cool tool it’s a pity they are pricey but thanks again
Very nice! But you'll have to build a bigger one soon. As tool junkies go we never have enough. LOL. Love the podcast as well.
Thanks so much your probably right I might need to build an extension soon 😂 glad your enjoying the podcast cheers
Thank You from Ethiopia
Thanks so much
Love the design and being honest about the total cost. Please do more!
Thanks so much what else would you like me to make ?
@@SteveBellCreates I was thinking and looking at the shelf, the lower shelf level is kind of thin. Could you put a brace on the lower center area for more support? I was going to say a desk would be nice, but I actually like the layout and desk that you have. Maybe a nice arm rest for your keyboard made from different types of wood. I made a few our of scrap wood that people give me.
@sbfotome yeh it is perhaps 2-3 mm too thing and yes you could put a brace under the shelf
@sbfotome yeh an armrest it interesting
@@SteveBellCreates I use 1x4 (american standard) My keyboard has a 1inch lip on the front so it really helps. Most gaming keyboards are about the same.
This is the first time for me to see one of your videos, and I liked the simplicity and the way your table came out. Well done 👏
Thank you so much I’m glad you enjoyed it
Excelente utilidade
Thank you so much ☺️
Just beautiful. Never believe pallet wood can look so good. Much applause 👏 👏👏👏
Thanks so much cheers
Great video! I'm going to use this same method to build a stovetop cover for a family member. A little tip to prevent your workpieces from sticking to your clamps is to add some painters tape to the bars of the clamps. Then you won't have any future potential head injuries haha.
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the safety tips 😂
@@SteveBellCreatesjust looking out for my fellow woodworking friends 😃.
Great looking table! I am unsure if you ever tried, but an impact driver works far better for driving screws, than a drill. A drill is best for making holes. An impact gun installs screws. Though it makes a bit of a racket, it is far easier to run the screw in without marring the head. Also, because the torque isn't constant and instead alternates rapidly, it is less likely to break/shear the screw.
Thanks Jason yes I have an impact driver but I find this small Festool drill the best for assembling fine furniture the same as Keith Johnson @keithjonsoncustomwoodworking
great video and table!
Thank you so much
Quick tip from a pro, make yourself a router table. It is guaranteed 100% fun making it, it will save lots of time and if the router is powerful enough, you wouldn't even need a spindle moulder.
Hi thanks I have an old router table which is past its best and your right I need to build another one
Like you, I watched every video I could find regarding DIY stitching ponies. Yours is the best one and I'm going to use yours as a guide. Thanks for a great job. Well done!
Thank you so much I’m glad you liked the design my wife is still using it all the time
What’s that tool you use to break the pallets up?
Hi funnily enough it’s called a pallet buster www.screwfix.com/p/roughneck-pallet-buster-demolition-bar-43-/6765x?ref=SFAppShare
Beautiful, the work, the message, everything. I love working with reclaimed wood too, making the discarded Beautiful. Recently I made a palletwood work top for a campervan conversion. Subscriber gained
Thanks so much Robert I’m really glad you enjoyed it. It’s a really nice feeling to use recycled materials
I came to watch a bit of woodworking and got a fucking philosophy lesson.
Woodworking video with deep thoughts, great combination. Keep up this theme, it's unique, and that's the key to a great channel. You've got another follower in me.
Thanks so much I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I wanted to try something different something more me I’m glad you liked this style and thanks for following me have a great weekend
Inspirational video. Love how you relate the wood to life events and a lovely design of table too. Good job.
Thanks so much Neil I’m really glad you enjoyed the video
I enjoyed that. thank you.
Thank you so much for watching
the mirka sanding discs are excellent, well worth the extra cost than sandpaper
Your so right the Abranet sandpaper was the best I’ve used and I really need to get some more
I built a manual version of the nail remover, using a steel tube and a cutoff nail. Works like a charm. I think I need to upload it as a video. 🙂
Oh man that sounds like a video that needs to be made
This is the best DIY desk shelf I’ve seen. Well done mate. Defo looks as good as those expensive American ones. However I must admit if you spent £30 on just glue and that small second shelf plywood. I think overall if you’re having to buy everything it probably won’t be that cheap to make. And grovemade do use premium materials I’ll give them that. Plus the labour as this does take some craftsmanship and mustn’t forget taxes. As well as other costs I’ve not mentioned I think it can start to add up. Although still I’m not buying one nor am I advocating others to buy, I can understand why they’re expensive now.
Thanks so much I’m glad you liked it . I only spent £13 on the glue I had the veneer for free but you could buy self adhesive veneer. The thing that bugged me was the cost of postage from grovemade to the Uk was so much. It for me it was worth my while to make my own. Once again thanks so much wor watching and your great comments
Well done Steve, big fan of your videos and the craftsmanship you involve each time. 10/10
Thanks so much cheers
That is art! I'm a pallet hustler and I have built some things like bird boxes but this is inspiring!
Oh thanks so much that’s inspiring for me to hear
This is crazy how much it looks like the real thing. How much were materials?
Hi the wood was just scraps in the workshop and I was given the veneer for free the only thing I bought was the contact adhesive which cost me £10 and the filament used was about £8
Where is the plant from? Looks great!!!
I got it from a shop in the UK called B&M it was only £4 bargain!!! Thanks for watching
Love the video! The story telling is great and makes me think about my own life, - and what might need "adjustment". Its relaxing watching you build and listening to the story while i note all the smart "woodworking stuf" you do. doublesided tape for templates, nails for drying painted parts, rough cut with band saw or jig saw and flush trim with router etc etc. Also a lot of things to note in my "smart things to know when doing woodworking" book in your previous video. Please keep 'em coming Steve! <3
Thanks so much Thor for your great comments. I’m so glad you enjoy the video and that it struck a chi with you. I hope your well and thanks again
Aw man my heart was in my mouth there for a while. Such a fabulous build. Beautiful table. Well done.

Nice work mate. I never would have of those colors for a table but they work well 👍
