Making a HANDMADE LEATHER BELT with LEATHER CARVING

- In this video I go over the process of how to make a leather belt. It's fairly simple, and though I add some embellishments to it, the way I'd make a simple leather belt without the serpent carving is much the same. Obviously I have a lot of viking inspired art and style in my projects, but it goes without saying to make it your own. I released a version of this video as an experiement as an "ASMR" no talking version with mixed reviews and always planned on doing one with a voice over so here it is.

Almost at 100,000 subscribers, thanks everyone. Having a bit of a panic trying to figure out what to do for it. Not much time.
How about a tour of your workshop?
Maybe get some cuticle oil and vitamin E lotion? I worry about your hands sometimes, they look so cracked in a lot of your videos. Not taking care of your hands can lead to your skin splitting, painful callouses, and awful hangnails. We want you to be able to do this a long time!
@@adorableagoraphobe Honestly my fingers are always a mess from work, but lately they've started getting crazy dry. I' m moisturing more in the last month than I have in my entire life.
Dark Horse Workshop Making sure you’re washing your hands with a gentle soap can also help! If you use alcohol-based sanitizers, do so sparingly or switch to a alcohol-free option. Be sure to lotion your hands after washing them to ensure the best moisture retention and to keep them from drying out from the soap.
I know when I was working as a nurse, I used O’Keeffe’s Working Hands a lot because washing my hands a million times a day really dried them out. It saved my poor little hands so much pain!
You get satisfactory for that - very brutal and not neat work.
I love how you're a professional and you still say stuff like, "i don't know wtf I was thinking here..."
Another great video. I like your work and your production and editing skills, as well as your naration, are excellent.
I was making celtic carved leather belts from 2008 to 2012. I learned a cool technique, when carving the whole belt. Instead of using tracing film, you make your own stamp with a carved veg tan leather hardened with wood varnish. You Then stamp the belt with it to trace the pattern. It goes Much faster than tracing it with a Stylus when carving the whole lenght. I'm into industrial music too,. Front Line assembly's m'y favorite band. :)
Love this setup and project, I'll definitely be doing something similar, this helped me a ton with ideas and good bits of information to have, especially regarding beveler sizes. Personally I'd run a modeling spoon through the entire background design and do a double stitch groove, as my personal preference but nonetheless this was terrific, thank you for the inspiration!
Thank you again for showing your knowledge that was very fascinated
One day, you'll use the right amount of antiquing gel, but that is not this day 😂
So good.
I have a hard time finding a belt that I like, so I’m just going to make my own! Thanks so much for this tutorial!
Really like your teaching style and quality of video, with music, if nessasary, in the backround, where it should be. 5 stars from me.
The serpent looked like it was painted on with gold from the thumbnail :D
Nicely done, this is almost enough to inspire me to pull out and finish some of my leather projects,
Very impressive, you are too humble...... Outstanding work!
Super nice video! Thanks very much!
Would you also make of watches, bands of fur. and then for example cow's fur or sheep's fur? Please let me know.
Great tutorial
I'm loving your videos, and haven't worked really with veg-tan leather much (I've been making shoes). I'm interested in which products you use for resists/finishes and dyes, if you have a suggestion for the best products. I see you use another something along the edges, and a little beeswax.
thanks for making videos.
Acrylic resolene with fiebings dyes usually
Loved it! Thank you very much Sir! Greetings! Brian
Wow ! That is one Goodlooking Belt my Freind thanks for the tips and Video
Nice man 👍🇧🇻
Thanks! 😃
Muy buen trabajo que pones de producto aparte del antike?
Para que quede más claro vendes herramientas o productos?
Nice work, 👍
Nice work!
Great looking belt, I like the criss cross pattern, I want to try it out. Keep up the good work sir! #bcproud
I made myself a belt! Not as good as yours but cool for me. Thanks!
Hi, i bought a belt that's carved but it is cracking, may I know how to restore it?
For someone who has the tools and knows what they're doing, what would be total elapsed time from "cut the belt off the hide" to "finished"?
The longer answer: There are many factors that go into time taken on a belt. One of the biggest factors is intricacy of pattern and speed of tooling. A decently finished belt can be knocked out quickly while something covered end to end in intricate tooling could take many hours. The greatest amount of time is often spent waiting for dyes, finishes, antiques etc to dry fully between steps. Other factors like lining the belt, hand stitching vs machine stitching, how crazy you want to get with edge burnishing, and how many layers of color you end up applying.
The quicker answer: a couple of hours +/- depending on complexity and level of finish.
Красота!!! Отличная вещь.
What color brown dye? Dark or medium?
Круто!!
I might be interested in commissioning something from you
Manticore Armor with Armor 3
Hmmmm...
I noticed that around the gnarly serpent design the dye is lighter. How would one go about a more even dye when you have fine carving detail like that?
When you bevel a tooled design, the compression of the leather often causes some of the natural oils in the skin to be forced to the surface. these natural oils can act as a resist to dyes that will reduce dye penetration and can cause a narrow "halo" of lighter less dyed area. This is present in a LOT of leather projects and can be a great indicator that the product you are looking at has been tooled and dyed by hand. If you aren't a fan of the look, you can always go back through with a paint brush and apply another coat of dye or apply antique to cover up the areas affected. As is true with all things in leathercraft, the extent you go to regarding fit and finish of your projects is up to you! Some people spend dozens of hours painstakingly detail every tiny detail and really focus on perfection while others are perfectly happy with a little more "hand crafted" rough and tumble look that takes a fraction of the time.
@@bjornsworkshop9288 Thanks a bunch for the detailed reply! Much appreciated.
it wasnt in the video but what did you do to the backside...great video too
Totally fucked it up with antique. Should have antiqued and put a finish or maybe bench skived it after just a bit to clean it up. Or done some masking tape would also have been smart .
nice work, how long did it take to do this belt?
step 1: yell at dad
step 2: wait for dad to get the belt
step 3:???
step 4: get the belt
step 5: you now have a belt
step 6: profit
How strong is the veg leather as a belt?
Very
I think you should find a " MANICURIST" to donate that Belt to . Your skills are awesome , Let's see theirs .
Sorry bro but your lover is too expensive
