I cant quite explain how nice it is to see your face in the videos. Completely changes the vibe and makes it feel more personal, not just a tutorial. Seems like it has opened up a lot of different options in the way you film compared to when you had to set shots up in such a way to not reveal yourself.
Loved that. A wonderful reminder to keep the playfulness when producing and coming up with designs. It is so easy to fall into the trap of what we are used to doing. Always enjoy your videos giving big and or small tips on how to improve. Pat yourself on the back for the impact you make! You deserve it 😊
Howdy from Australia.... thankyou soooooo much for your videos I have been learning a lot and have bought some patterns from you also. Currently I am making a small bag with piping, wow what a workout that was. I have beginner tools and the skiving tool didn't seem to be very sharp or it might just be the way I was using it, practice practice. You make it look so easy but this bag will still look great ( I have dyed it a hot pink)
I just received the new 180 deg convertible hand press from BG. I have not had a hand press before and find the dies a bit confusing. The BG dies are fine, but I had to buy some Tandy dies for rivets and while I can use them on the BG press, it is unclear how to set up the distance between dies with the spring and plastic ring on the Tandy die getting in the way. Build quality on the BG press is very high. I just wish they made more die sets. I also had to get the Tandy set for segma snaps.
I’m looking forward to you getting back to just making things with leather. I appreciate the BG gear info, but that’s not why I subscribed to your channel.
I'd be more comfortable applying that kind of pressure on their higher tier press than the cast one. Seeing how much that press flexed in the video made me cringe because I know what happens when cast parts fatigue over time. I'm glad that they went to a more neutral color as well!
it's solid cast iron, so it'll be fine - the flex was the 2" of 3/4 plywood it was mounted to at the end of the bench there that's unsupported, that's why it was mounted so far back haha
I never understood the lime green on the handle. I’ve been tempted to paint mine. Have you used it for stamping letters or logo on leather? I don’t have a Kingsley or similar machine.
It looks awkward. You are pushing the handle down away from your centre of gravity so you have no leverage, it really looks like you are struggling to get some pressure.

Thanks for sharing.
I like the lime green. It is my favorite color. I just unfortunately don't own a press.
Great ideas. Thanks Ian.
Your content is always interesting.
Great tricks. Thank you. Will you be giving your old Setter away?

Where did you get your die set, the cheaper set from? I really love the look you are getting from them and would love to try it myself.
Love your videos brother.
I ❤ only God and myself. Of course.
You should consider doing a give away on your old press... 😉😉

Yeah, as someone in the UK I can't order from BG so it's all skippable.
So are you saying little wonder dies will work in new BG press? You haven’t answered other comments about this. Thanks.
Hey do you think at some point you may start a discord for community to share and communicate and stuff? I’d love that to happen!
Do the Tandy line 20 and 24 snaps work on the BG dies you show case in this video?

They are both made of cast-iron and bonus not the highest end.

There was nothing wrong with the old ones you have ?
Are you getting rid of the old green one?
Can you use this to set rivets and burs?
So the new convertible press will allow me to use my weaver little wonder press dies so I can set weaver rivets? That's awesome
The casting on the one I received wasn't nearly as nice as that example.
How come youre on your own now?
Unfortunately the press is out of stock
it's brand new so if you sign up for the email alert they'll let you know when they come in :)
Kam press dk93. Good cheap press.
Great press bet limited on dies and no way to set up spacing ruler.
It seems so ergonomically awkward to have the handle situated away from the operator.

just about the work huh...
buckleguy's stuff is about 300% overpriced or more
First
Congratulations.
Return soon.👍.
If the green colour bothered you, why not just paint it? I get sponsorships but keep in mind the wastage.
