Thank you very much for your kind words! A lot of the stamps have been gifts from friends and family. They are aware of my love for leathercrafting so when it comes to holidays and birthdays I am an easy person to gift. Thank you again!
Thank you so much Mario! I just got home from vending only to find my very first Super Thanks! So awesome! Really truly means a lot to me. Really, thank you so much! I hope the best for you always! Thx!
Thank you very much! That background stamp is made by Sergey Neskromniy from Bulgaria. www.etsy.com/listing/779964394/tools-for-leather-crafts-stamp-368-kit-3?transaction_id=2255858074
Thank you very much! Certainly! What I use are what is called dotting tools. they are mostly made to make dots with paint but they are perfect for embossing. They are metal rods with a metal ball on top and they come in all different sizes. Do a search for 10Pcs Dotting Tools on amazon but anything you find around the house that is shaped the same might work. Enjoy!
Ficou muito top meu amigo estou começando na arte de trabalhar cm couros sou iniciante vou tentar fazer cm bainha para facas esse estilo de desenhos também muito top mesmo vc está de parabéns continue postando mais vídeos faz cm bainhas para facas também vai ficar lindos também
¡Muchos gracias! Me encanta este tipo de diseño. Solo he hecho unas cuantas fundas para cuchillos pero son muy divertidas. Me gusta hacer el estilo panqueque. Los hago para personas que tienen cuchillos y quieren una funda personalizada. Sigue practicando y diviértete. Eso es lo que hago. ¡Gracias!
Thank you for the question. The wallet in the video is a bit complicated but if you are going to make a standard wallet it will be much simpler. Like anything practice makes perfect so your first wallet might not come out the best but it will be a good start to understand how they are made. I think you would have a lot of fun making it. The simple answer is that they are not hard to make, The hard part is in the details like keeping your stitching straight, making sure all your edges and corners are burnished and done correctly. These are all things you refine and you enjoy leather crafting. A wallet is a great place to start and there are plenty of free patterns for wallets o line and even on youtube. Enjoy!
Thank you for the question. That is leather dust. It makes for a great filler when you emboss. After pushing out the leather from the back, I use the filler.
Wow I had no idea this much labor went into something like this. I'm glad your channel popped up, I just love to learn how things are made and learn other trades. Great work, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. Is that stuff you mixed with rubber cement, leather shavings. If so that'd a great idea for a filler. This way you can say it's 100% leather. Very cool, I can't wait to binge watch all of your videos now lol
Thank you very much! Yes, it is leather dust that I mix with rubber cement. Thank you for such a great comment! I am also a fan of watching the creation of of things and how they are made. I am uploading a new video right now. I call it the octopurse. :)

Thank you for the question. I love the leather I use for the interior of this wallet. I use it for plenty other projects as well. It has a real rustic appeal. It is called LAREDO CRAZY HORSE SIDE. It is not made out of horse. :) I actually get it from Tandy. Here is a link: tandyleather.com/products/laredo-crazy-horse?_pos=1&_sid=fabbc76ef&_ss=r

I'm just now learning about leather work. I saw you trace the skull. How is the image transferring from the paper to the leather? It looks like a pencil outline?... special paper or just a pressed imprint? Thanks
Thank you for the question, I make sure that the pattern has tape on both sides so it does not get wet because you will be wetting the leather. What I use to trace the image is a some what pointy stylus. It indents the leather as you trace the pattern. Then you carve out the pattern with your swivel knife.
Thank you. Actually I have just my cardboard cutout. I should make a copy before I destroy it. The pattern is made up 3 pieces. Pocket 5 1/2in by 3 1/8th inches. main body 5 1/2 by 6 inches. Inside pocket is 5 1/2 by 6 7/8th in. hope this helps. You really can make it any size then follow the video.
¡Gracias! Acabo de vender esta billetera ayer y estoy a punto de hacer una nueva pronto. Las medidas son: 6 pulgadas con billetera abierta. ancho es de 5 1/2 pulgadas.
One tricky part is to know if you are going to stick to it. When I started I bought a bunch of starter tools only to have to replace them when my knowledge and understanding of leathercrafting grew. So when it comes to knives and chisels don't buy the cheapest. Practice stamping straight patterns. Keep your swivel knife sharp and practice with it. There is so much to learn on TH-cam. Like any craft, musician, etc...there is no end to learning. Enjoy!
Thank you very much for your interest! Love to do it. Just send me an email with the info and we will discuss the details. My email should be in the about section of my youtube channel. If you have any trouble let me know. Thank you.
Thank you very much! It is a technique I love to use. The dye applicator is just a piece of a T-shirt. I will apply the dye to the shirt just by holding the bottle up to the shirt and then turning it upside down and back quickly. Then I will wipe off any excess dye left on the shirt on to a news paper. When I feel the t-shirt is dry enough I will start applying the dye and applying pressure wherever I want the dye to be darker. Actually I have a video explaining this very technique. th-cam.com/video/rfLVUZK8GmY/w-d-xo.html . Thank you for the question. I hope this helps!
Dude i know fk all about working with leather but you have an amazing skill 😁👍 can i ask when you raised the skull was it just water you used to soften the leather ? 😁😁🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
yes, leather when soaked will become very soft and moldable. The key when embossing is to wet only specific areas of the leather and mold each section at a time. I hope this helped. Thank you.
Hi Chad, Thank you for the kind and inspiring comment!. I find I get so absorbed in what I am doing I do not pay to much attention to the time but I will take a shot at how long. The most time consuming aspect of making this wallet is the hand sewing. cutting out the leather and tracing the pattern and tooling it does not take to long. Dying like this take maybe 30-40 minutes. When I wet the leather and apply the embossing dust I have to wait for the leather to dry. I guess a day and a half. Maybe less maybe longer. I wish I had a better answer. I'll pay more attention next time I make one. Whenever I try to time my projects I end up forgetting that I am trying to keep track. :) Thank you!
I used 4-5 oz on the cover and 3 oz for the pockets. Sometimes when you emboss you are stretching the leather and the dimensions of the leather shrink as far as height and width. Make sure after you complete the cover to be sure your pockets are at the same width as the cover. If the pockets are to big (long) at that point understand that at some point you will have to make them match the cover. You do not want to sew everything together and realize that you have to adjust the edges so much that the sew lines on the pockets meet the actual end of the edge of the wallet. You don't want to sand the edges to the point where you are actually leaving no space between the sew line and the edge of the wallet. Maybe more info then you asked for but it can save you from doing this error which I learned from experience. :)
I used 4-5oz for the cover, closer to 4oz. I don't really like to tool on leather less then 4oz but I will tool on 3oz if necessary. You don't want to go to thick with the cover because of the embossing. I used 2-3oz leather for the pockets. Hope this helped. :)
@@doaknife9161 Thank you very much. I sell them on ETSY but I sold the one that is in the video. I am about to start another one. It is priced well for the amount of work that is put into it but it won't cost an arm and a leg. That would be millions. :)
Grazie per le tue belle parole e per esserti iscritto! Per l'impasto sto usando la polvere di pelle che ho comprato da www.springfieldleather.com/leather-Dust-1-Pound . Puoi creare la tua polvere ma potrebbe essere un sacco di lavoro. Forse puoi trovare una fonte di polvere nel bellissimo paese d'Italia, ammesso che sia lì che ti trovi. :) L'unico altro ingrediente è il cemento di gomma. Non ho una formula esatta ma sto cercando di ottenere una consistenza che si spalmerà come il burro di arachidi. Se deve asciugarsi non si stende bene. Inoltre non bagnarlo troppo. Una volta che hai gli ingredienti, sarai in grado di trovare la consistenza che funziona meglio per te. Spero che questo aiuti! Fammi sapere se hai altre domande o se hai bisogno che io sia più dettagliato in alcun modo. Grazie:) English: Thank you for your kind words and for subscribing! For the dough I am using leather dust that I bought from www.springfieldleather.com/leather-Dust-1-Pound . You can make your own dust but that might be a lot of work. Maybe you can find a source of the dust in the beautiful country of Italy, assuming that is where you are. :) The only other ingredient is rubber cement. I have no exact formula but I am trying to get a consistency that will spread like peanut butter. If it is to dry it does not spread well. Plus don't over wet it. Once you have the ingredients you will be able to find the consistency that works best for you. I hope this helps!

@@ferrarirod1 Forse c'è un'azienda italiana che utilizza questa macchina e potrebbe semplicemente buttare via la polvere di cui hai bisogno. Non fa male a guardare. Capisco anche che in Europa vendono un "riempitivo per goffratura già pronto per la lavorazione della pelle", ma potrebbe essere costoso. English: I noticed on the springfield webpage they say "The dust created by working with leather machinery (such as a splitter)" Maybe there is a Italian company that uses this machine and they might be just throwing out the very dust you need. Can't hurt to look. I also understand that in Europe they do sell a ready made "embossing filler for leathercraft" but it might be expensive. Hope this helps. :)

На мой взгляд рисунок черепа какой то нелепый получился и не уместный для портмоне . Это равносильно как для коровы седло сделать )) Если это рокерская или байкерская тема ,то надо было на рисунке кроме черепа добавить либо гитару или мотоцикл .Ну типа скелет на байке или с гитарой в руках . Ну а если хотелось сьюморить ,то хотя бы надпись под черепом надо было написать типа : Не Влезай ,Убью ! 😁
Спасибо за ваш комментарий и за то, что поделились своим мнением! Очень приятно услышать разные взгляды на дизайн. Когда я выбрал(а) череп для портмоне, моя цель была создать что-то с легким оттенком дерзости и индивидуальности, но при этом не привязываться строго к какой-то одной теме, например, к рокерской или байкерской культуре. Хотелось, чтобы этот рисунок мог понравиться разным людям и легко интерпретировался по-разному. Мне понравились ваши идеи - скелет с гитарой или надпись добавили бы веселую изюминку! Ваше мнение для меня ценно, и я обязательно буду его учитывать для будущих проектов. Спасибо еще раз, что оценили мою работу и поделились своими идеями!
This is crime.... come on man 22 min grannn grannn grannnn.... omg my head!!! i cant see 2 min of this video!!! stop the music and this music on your video! its too hard to the people focus in your job with that music........ little backround soft music is ok... with the sounds of tools!
Thank you for the advice. I have been trying different things. Of course not everyone is going to like the same thing, In some of my videos I have jazz running through the video. Not everybody can handle the jazz. :) I figured the Metal would be good for the skull wallet. As for the sound of the tools, I have a window mounted AC which the microphone picks up all to well. Maybe just lower the volume for this video. :) I plan on trying lots of different ideas. Thanks for the suggestion.
That is a cool trick to get the skull to pop.
Thank you! I think I got the idea from the leather crafters journal magazine years back. I use the technique often because I like the effect as well.
What and awesome wallet. You are very skilled and talented.

I have no exact formula but I am trying to get a consistency that will spread like peanut butter. If it is to dry it does not spread well. Plus don't over wet it. Once you have the ingredients you will be able to find the consistency that works best for you. I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions or if you need me to be more detailed in any way. Thank you:)

@@ferrarirod1Grazie! Fammi sapere i tuoi progressi. Il piano della scrivania del mio computer è un'immagine di Vernazza, Italia. Quanta bellezza in Italia. :) Per non parlare del cibo. :) Divertiti

Thank you! Let me know your progress. My computer desk top is an image of Vernazza, Italy. So much beauty in Italy. :) Not to mention the food. :) Enjoy!
@@baronleathercraft come immaginavo !! in Italia non trovo questa polvere , e farla arrivare dal link che mi hai inviato è praticamente impossibile sia per i costi che per la sicurezza dato che non possono inviare materiale infiammabile , dovrò ricavare il tutto raschiando pezzi di scarto 😒😒😒
@@ferrarirod1 Forse c'è un'azienda italiana che utilizza questa macchina e potrebbe semplicemente buttare via la polvere di cui hai bisogno. Non fa male a guardare. Capisco anche che in Europa vendono un "riempitivo per goffratura già pronto per la lavorazione della pelle", ma potrebbe essere costoso.

I noticed on the springfield webpage they say "The dust created by working with leather machinery (such as a splitter)"
Maybe there is a Italian company that uses this machine and they might be just throwing out the very dust you need. Can't hurt to look. I also understand that in Europe they do sell a ready made "embossing filler for leathercraft" but it might be expensive. Hope this helps. :)
Where can I buy one?
Thank you very much for your interest! I make them and I sell them. My email is on my channel about page. Contact me. Here is a link: th-cam.com/channels/im9LMjdhWVwA-sNbgCq-Xw.htmlabout
На мой взгляд рисунок черепа какой то нелепый получился и не уместный для портмоне . Это равносильно как для коровы седло сделать )) Если это рокерская или байкерская тема ,то надо было на рисунке кроме черепа добавить либо гитару или мотоцикл .Ну типа скелет на байке или с гитарой в руках . Ну а если хотелось сьюморить ,то хотя бы надпись под черепом надо было написать типа : Не Влезай ,Убью ! 😁
Спасибо за ваш комментарий и за то, что поделились своим мнением! Очень приятно услышать разные взгляды на дизайн. Когда я выбрал(а) череп для портмоне, моя цель была создать что-то с легким оттенком дерзости и индивидуальности, но при этом не привязываться строго к какой-то одной теме, например, к рокерской или байкерской культуре. Хотелось, чтобы этот рисунок мог понравиться разным людям и легко интерпретировался по-разному.
Мне понравились ваши идеи - скелет с гитарой или надпись добавили бы веселую изюминку! Ваше мнение для меня ценно, и я обязательно буду его учитывать для будущих проектов. Спасибо еще раз, что оценили мою работу и поделились своими идеями!
This is crime.... come on man 22 min grannn grannn grannnn.... omg my head!!! i cant see 2 min of this video!!! stop the music and this music on your video! its too hard to the people focus in your job with that music........ little backround soft music is ok... with the sounds of tools!
Thank you for the advice. I have been trying different things. Of course not everyone is going to like the same thing, In some of my videos I have jazz running through the video. Not everybody can handle the jazz. :) I figured the Metal would be good for the skull wallet. As for the sound of the tools, I have a window mounted AC which the microphone picks up all to well. Maybe just lower the volume for this video. :) I plan on trying lots of different ideas. Thanks for the suggestion.
