[@farhadfadayi7389]

love this video. this is my biggest weakpoint in making bag. thanks for sharing

[@TheLupulalb]

when I use the glazed paper when sanding, I use a single polishing direction, the fibers grind much better in one direction

[@michaelpcooksey5096]

Nice presentation. Thank You.

[@brycew5663]

Heaps of info & easy to follow. Great work. Question about painting edges, I find the paint will sometimes rub onto clothing, any advice for that? Do you rub it down with the canvas a few times over?

[@thaokathy3067]

Thank you so much for the video. It's very helpful. I just wondered whether these methods and products can be used on faux leather or lambskin leather? Thanks for your advice

[@loisgibbs-reid6400]

Thank you!!!

[@themonkeymanofStockbridge]

You 're doing great! Thanks a lot!
I'll check if you have any videos on making a proper corner... In the words of colonel Kurtz: "it's my dream... it's my nightmare"

[@SpringfieldLeather]

Like a rounded corner? We have an acrylic template for that. Search Swiss Corner Card on our site.

Here is a Burnisher that would be great to speed up your processes and make the Yankee Wax part a bit easier.

Hi. May I ask on what kind of leather did you use?

[@u.turnnrg911]

[@SpringfieldLeather]

Here you are. We call it an edge roller pen.

[@hounamao7140]

What finish would you use for bag leather straps ? which one is more durable ?

[@SpringfieldLeather]

It depends on what the leather is. But either will hold up well. Even the paint...you just need to prep your edge properly so it adheres good.

[@miragesiberians]

Will the Sanding and gum trag work on faux leather?

[@RayOnRae95]

lol

[@Wooster77]

Hi, you mention that these methods are for veg tan and oil tan leathers. I have a wallet that has an aniline dyed and waxed finish. Would gum trag be suitable to use on its rough edges? Thanks.

[@SpringfieldLeather]

Possibly tokonole would be more suitable.

[@bananapotatonaaa]

Don't you need some kind of top coat for the paint? Acrylic leather paint pretty much dissolves easily when gotten wet. Looking for something of a little bit water resistance for edges of a chrome tanned bag.

[@SpringfieldLeather]

Got a new edge product from Italy. Top of the line stuff. Will release very soon,

[@KnifeCrazzzzy]

That intro 😂😂😂

[@kerryyockey8150]

[@jonnyphenomenon]

[@kittykat999a]

[@MohammedSaeedAwad]

Excuse me , may you write the name of the white material in minute 15 in english? (Code) or what?

[@SkyNerdStudios]

gum tragacanth

[@michaelpcooksey5096]

Gum Trag is a sort of clear whitish jell. The lighter edge paint from Angelus is different.

[@tandago7281]

Is gum trag the same as gum trgacanth?

[@SpringfieldLeather]

Yes it is

50 ways to edge your leather…. There’s a certain ring to that…

[@DLSWV]

👍😉

[@spikerdude39]

Killer chihuahua! LMAO!!!

[@jamesthe-doctor8981]

This is not meant as a criticism, or to be negative in any way, but simply my personal observation. I had never heard “tragacanth” pronounced with a soft “g” until leather crafting videos on TH-cam became popular. Around here it’s spoken with a hard “g” which sounds like a “j.” Spelling phonetically, or it as it sounds, is like starting with the word, “tragic,” and adding “canth.” Or- “tragic-canth.” When somebody says “tragga-canth” it sounds funny to me because of how I learned it so long ago. “Gum trag” sounds familiar, though. 😃

[@SpringfieldLeather]

We will just stick to Gum Trag then. :)

[@jamesthe-doctor8981]

Springfield Leather fair enough :)
