- Learn tips, tricks, & techniques to achieve smooth beautiful tooling.
The foundation of tooling starts with your swivel knife, beveling, and shading.
This video will simplify these tools and get you well on your way to improving your tooling.

OLD Leather Smith here, great video 4 beginners, nice explanations but you forgot 1 thing, telling your audience 2 put a few drops of liquid dish soap in the water 4 smother movement of your tools, even in inexpensive, snd thinner leather. GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃
It seems I have been trying to learn tooling on leather that is too thin. I think I finally figured out why your cuts look so different from mine. The leather you are using is like twice the thickness of what I have been struggling with. Also, the finger being right down on the surface, controlling the swivel better. Thank you, sir!!
If forced to tool thinner leather for whatever reason, get a roll of that white, closed cell high density foam. I think they call it EVA Foam, Craft foam, or Cosplay foam. It lets the leather stretch further, beyond the level of the surface it's sitting in, giving you deeper impressions with your stamping tools.
Mr. Joe! Thank you very much for your work in creating, editing & posting this wonderful video. I appreciate it greatly.
Excellent training, After my 45 year break from tooling Iam starting all over again, You are definitly helping me get it better this time Thank you
Great presentation! Probably the best I've seen. Thanks Joe!
Hey Joe, you got some good tips in there. Nice video!
great instruction, these are the basis of leather work, so important !!!!!!
I’m new to the craft and my biggest thing with tilting my punch’s and bevels is looking at where I was rather then where I’m going I try to tip it and see how it hit ranther then take a second and look to see if I like the way it came out
I watched several of your videos, they're all great and very thorough - thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Fantastic video, especially for us newbies. Thank you !
Outstanding explanations and filming
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and techniques! I've watched this video several times and I'm still finding things to improve my skills. Thank you again!
Very nice video . I am learning from you.thanks
Thank you so much for making this video. I really appreciate it!!
Good teacher
Thank you so much! I was getting frustrated yesterday with my choppy beveling. I will give it another try with these tips! Is there a way to repair choppy beveling or is it best to just start over?
Outstanding 👏
I want to learn how to shade initials...
It was hard to see the results of the beveling, because the leather was flat... You picked it up on some occasion...
Nevertheless, you did an outstanding job of explaining everything...
Wonderful job 👏👏
Thank you 🙏
Thank you, this is really helpful.
Another awesome video full of great tips. And incredibly well explained. Thank you Joe. As an aside, is there any idea of an approx timeline as to when your beginner deluxe stamping tool kit might be available for purchase again?
Hello! Thank you so much for the channel and the techniques and way of working you show on it. If possible I would like to ask you to make a video of engraving a diamond on a belt, Because today I tried to do it but nothing rece. Thank you in advance, My you be alive and well and I wish you a lot of health, luck and success.
Great work, great instructional video, Joe...
One day I hope my choppy bevels, look as consistent as yours...lol
My memory is effected by my disability. With that said, I may write multiple and separate comments. 1st) You haven't said it yet, but as a beginner I have noticed that the tilt of the beveler, you have made a resemblance of a cattail weed and if you turn the beveler around and do the same thing, you've created a silhouette of a cattail... lol. I know that wasn't the point just saying. 2) you haven't mentioned it yet at least about stopping the swivel knife and not completing the lines but stopping before the joining of the lines. That shows me that you have done this for a while. I have heard it from other vid posters. Just an observation.
Your writing was fine, and solid points made.
This is a great very educational video! Thanks!
Also I’m sure you’ve heard this before, but you sound exactly like woody harrelson!!
Love your vids and ty for being such a Gud teacher. 😊
Excellent content as always!
Just as an observation. Where you showed the choppiness of the bevel on the longer curves. It seems like that would be a technique to enhance the look of certain pieces. Possibly the beginning of a leaf vein. And a Question. Are there designs where you would choose not to bevel? The petals you did without beveling seem to have gained definition from the shader.
Great video!
Would you be so kind as to do a video on FL type stuff...such as Palm Trees, palmettos, fish etc....? Thanks PS - also I've noticed that when I get some of these tools (Most of em) they're really small - much smaller than I expected. Great video - helped a lot. Thanks
Eres el mejor 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Haven’t stared the craft yet waiting for my tools been watching a lot of videos. No one explains what side of the line to bevel. How do you know what side of the line to bevel?
Would a flat not checkered bevel look better or are the checkered patterns there for a reason
I’ve learned a lot from your lessons... thanks... after you remove the tape from the back of the leather.. what do you do to finish it?
How many oz maul for Tooling? Thank you
Hi Joe Meling, I watch your videos a lot, I've learned a lot, one question, do you ship to Mexico, I would like to get the sock package?
Gracias 👍
Nice tutorial thanks, but a few words would be enough instead of a hundred and we would understand anyway, it's difficult to follow this way to the end
what swivel knife do you use
When doing leather tooling can I do sections at a time? I’m fairly new to it but was unsure about it. I also noticed in your videos that you wet the whole leather and not just the section your working on. Reason why for that?
Can u tell me where I can get those 3 tools that I just figured out that I now need. Lol
my acrylic paint domt stick to my projects when i antiuqe it, what leather is best for tooling?
Where can I get the deluxe beginner's kit??
to case leather you need to wet both sides of the leather. If you tape one side, you're not casing.
Always a great video to learn and enjoy, thanks!
Could you do a video of which swivel blades you prefer, and which ones you would suggest for various projects?
I thought CASING took much longer this is just wetting the leather
You have a knack for teaching. I hope you have kids
I did not know you could rotate your workpiece as well as the tool.
Heck ya, no rules😀
