UP CYCLE: Making a Wallet from a Hamburger Wrapper

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ก.ย. 2024
  • A couple of months ago I made myself a quick leather wallet. I think it turned out pretty nice so I thought I’d make another one. This time I’ll show you how to make one too!
    The design is pretty simple and could be adapted to lots of other materials.

    Took me awhile to solve the riddle of the wrapper. LOL. Great looking piece.

      +Greg's Garage Thanks! While I was working with the leather I was day dreaming about all of the picnics and cookouts that single cow might have been to...

      Brian Oltrogge here I was thinking it was a click bait title. Well done.

      Berkeley Jones Hamburger is usually beef. Beef is cow. The leather he used is cowhide.

      Brian Oltrogge any possible way you sell one like this, I have one almost exactly like this but it doesn’t have the bill fold. Which I fell in love with. Please please in anyway could I buy this wallet from you.

      Bit late on the reply to this as I just saw the video, but he was completely honest with his title. He did use a piece of burger wrapper for making a wallet. Natural burger wrapper. After all, doesn't the skin wrap around what will one day become said burger? ;)

  • @seamusrobertson8875
    @seamusrobertson8875 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I made a very similar wallet myself based on your design. It's been an amazing wallet for personal use, I added in an extra flap for a windowed ID slot and I made the card slot shorter on the 4 1/2" side so it was more of a cover than a full slot because I had some trouble making mine easily accessible. All in all a great piece you designed, thanks for the video!

    Hey, sorry for the late comment! That wallet looks great. I’m not a big fan of that particular design for a wallet, but the craftsmanship is amazing.

    beautiful wallet! the rounded edges are a nice touch. for my personal taste I liked the raw chunkiness of the square edge to show off the thickness of that full grain leather. i would guess most viewers probably like the finished look. the great thing about making your own is making it your way! great video! thanks!

    @wika1984 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Out of curiosity, who downvotes videos like these? This is very good. Last week, I bought paracord to make myself a bracelet because I wasn't happy with the bracelets I've been seeing, so I learned to make one myself. And I did and it's better than the paracord bracelets I've been searching for at camping stores, amazing and sport stores.
    Now I'm looking for a minimalist wallet that fits my criteria. I can't find one. I have to make one. Thanks. This will be my next project.
    Can you answer me one thing though: how much money is a project like this? On paracord I spent $20 (100ft 550 and 32ft 325 for trial and error before perfecting my bracelet...and a lighter). I'm patient when it comes to funding.
