    Denny, you're great! I started carving and tioling leather as a teenager, almost 50 years ago, but life got in the way, and I put all my tiols away. Now that I'm retired, I thought I'd get back unto it. So this is a refresher course for me, but I'm still learning a lot, you're ysing some techniques U hadn't thought of (like spritzing the learher, I always used a spinge.) I was.maunky trying to remember the order for using the tiils, as I haven't picked up a swivel knife in close to 40 years, and have forgotten a lot, but not how much I enjoyed doing it. I'm looking forward to enjoying this great hobby again! Thanks for doing these videos, my friend!

    This has to be the best video I've seen on how to start leather crafting
    It's weird watching other left handed people do stuff, but this is amazing

    Thank you so much for taking the time to show this. I am wanting to learn the skills as I am starting an upholstery shop for motorcycle seats. I have alway been intrigued by leather working even as a kid. So I’m hoping with my artistic talent and quilting talent I can now explore putting it all together and doing it on leather. Again thank you for showing me the basics….

      Carving is the hardest thing to capture right and we wish some things were better. But we were happy with this outcome!

    Great tutorial! Maybe use masking tape to tape your paper down then tape tracing paper to original paper then it won’t move.

    This is a great video! I am just getting into this hobby. There aren't any classes available in my area. Great info. I do have a question/request; can you show a detailed picture of the leveling tool and tell us the size? I think I understand the principle of hoe it moves but I can't tell if this is one of the tools I have or not.

    Thank you for this! I don't have veg leather - quite expensive here :( But I do have thinner-type scraps. Some came off of an old leather couch & some from a leather store that makes guitar straps. Could I thicken them up by glueing 2 together maybe with thin cardboard or plastic insert? Do you also know how to incorporate 2 types of leather in one piece? Ex: The centre flower being a different leather than the rest. The main question is how would I make this look seamless?

    Rather then letting that paper crawl...tape the corners with masking tape.

  • @j.m.england6828
    @j.m.england6828 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hi there, I saw you put what I thought was a plain piece of trace paper onto a floral design & traced it,, but once done, you put that same piece of what you traced onto the leather, but i'm confused how this worked, because when you went to lay that paper onto the leather, I couldn't see any design on that tracing paper, how is this possible, I don't get it?

    • @rachelgower4427
      @rachelgower4427 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Melody England the tracing paper he used looked pretty thin and could probably see the drawing through it

    • @Null_Vampyrr
      @Null_Vampyrr 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The design is there. The overhead camera just doesn't show it.

    sir what is the suitable thickness and leather colour for carving ?

    • @SpringfieldLeather
      @SpringfieldLeather  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually you can use almost any weight of leather that you want. Thicker leather will allow you to attain greater relief. The leather has to be veg tanned with no finish. I like 2.4-2.8 for some things and will use up to about 3.6 for others. The Leather should not be colored and be natural in appearance

  • @sheri4673
    @sheri4673 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can you tell me how many mils thick is the leather that is used in this video? I'm working with a piece that is 2.6 mils thick and I'm just not getting the depth and dimension with my beveling that you're getting here. Trying to figure out how much of the problem is my beginner technique and how much is that a thicker piece of leather gives a more lush finished piece.

    • @SpringfieldLeather
      @SpringfieldLeather  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This piece is around 8 oz which is 3.2 mm.
      Proper moisture content also plays into how the edges darken as you bevel.

  • @TheMNBlackBear
    @TheMNBlackBear ปีที่แล้ว

    All my cuts with the knife are always too deep, cutting through the flesh, exposing the bottom. Then the tooling, beveling, etc. really brings out the exposed bottom and it looks terrible.
    I've been trying to carve and tool leather off and on for a year. I've made a few good pieces, but for the most part, I suck! I'm the worst leather carver on the planet! Getting ready to throw in the towel.
    Oh, well, at least I can make some decent enough products for my own use.
