Oh. My. God!!!!! Thank you so much!!! I honestly thought I was just going to have to use brown and black thread for everything from now on. I'm grateful to you for sharing this!!
A much easier and way faster method is to etch/mark the holes with the laser, then hand punch them. Zero residue to deal with, and I can have the holes punched in less time than cleaning the holes.
Very true I do that when Im setting up with exact mm spacing. Only if it matches my stitching irons though I need to punch at least 6 at a time Im lazy.
@@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER Unfortunately, at the moment, my multipe punches have removable cutters, which allows them some measure of freeplay. On smaller projects (100 holes or less), I just use my single punch. Of course, I'm not having to produce the volume you are.
I used to laser cut my leather projects. But after all the drawbacks instead of cutting them I just mark the pattern and proceed to cut it manually. Way cleaner and faster if you consider how messy is to clean the charcoal residues.
I think ultimately you can cut the product out but should still punch the stitching. All this clean up absolutely negates the "time savings" of laser cutting the stitching. Edges need some work anyway lol
I get wanting to cut perfect shapes, curves, etc. both consistently and quickly. But I don't really get laser stitching holes. They lose pretty much all the appeal of being hand stitched in my opinion. I think cricut is a better approach if you're not going to hand cut.

Great project, great video, thanks for sharing, one question what settings you are using for your laser?

Another method: pipe cleaners. Been using that since we got a Glowforge a couple of years ago.
What is the name of your leather material and where can I get it from
Thanks for sharing the PDF👏👏👍
Do you sell these wallets? I'm will like to buy one if that's an option
what model is this laser? what is good for leather?
Thanks alot for the tips 🥰
You solved the problem in the first step - just use waxed thread?
What about to blow by high presure air?
Or just use a stitching iron.
😂😂
