I always find it amazing how something that looks super complex and intimidating breaks down into just a series of fairly straightforward steps. Don't get me wrong, leather working in an art and I'm sure getting good results isn't in any way easy it's just cool to see it in an approachable way.

@punishedprops 5 лет назад

Pretty great, right? =D

@bjornsworkshop9288 5 лет назад

110% agreed! Nothing I ever do with leather is magic, it is just years of trial and error coming together to figure out what to do when and how. Leathercraft turned out to be way more approachable than I had realized when I first started.

If you do form to the project, using hot water, you MAY need to re wet the leather to get the project out. This can help for projects that you really want a snug fit, like ejection port or trigger guard detail will really help with retention.

@kbjerke 5 лет назад

I find brown paper yard waste bags work well for making patterns... up to a pretty large size! Also, that "compass" is actually a set of "dividers." A compass has a pen or pencil on one of its legs.

@FearsomeWarrior 5 лет назад

Yeah I also caught that and wondered. Dividers! I use soda pop boxes for templates. I have a lot of Mountain Dew branded templates.

@bjornsworkshop9288 5 лет назад

Hey Karl! One of the challenging things about tools is that over time they tend to gain multiple names in multiple industries. You are absolutely correct that generally speaking a compass has a pen or pencil on one leg, but the purpose of that is simply to be able to draw your circle. in leathercraft, metalworking, and several other fields, a metal point is more functional for scribing the circle and as such the dividers have been given the name compass as well. (See first sentence of the "Divider Caliper" section of the "Calipers" page on wikipedia for reference)

@emilylindstrom724 5 лет назад

Thank you for putting out a video showing the correct way to work with leather. I watch a lot of cosplay and woodworking videos and end up cringing through most of it any time they get out some leather. And yes, there are many different and equally correct ways to do most of the steps, but there are even more incorrect ways to do them. The shafts on those rivets looked way too long but I've never used the ones that are nice domes on both sides and they didn't skew diagonal when you fastened them so I assume they're just different than the single sided ones, or maybe it doesn't matter as much if you have a fancy press, I've always done it the old fashioned way. I agree that the finishing is very important and really sets the piece apart from an amateur job. I like to punch holes in belts and straps before applying the antique/stain so the inside edges of the holes are dark instead of light, looks a little better to my eyes but that's more personal preference.

@emilylindstrom724 5 лет назад

Oh you might want to glue a piece of thin suede/felt/foam over the back of the snaps inside so it doesn't scratch your gun with repeated use. Barge will work fine.

@bjornsworkshop9288 5 лет назад

Thank you for the kind words! The posts on the rivets are definitely left long because of the press. It has a collar on either side that prevents any side to side shift and guarantees a straight crush. If I were using a hand setter I would definitely trim the posts.

Thankyou, Bjorn and Bill, well presented and I learnt a lot, just enough to want to try my hand at leatherwork. p.s. never been on your channel before, will look around a bit too. Next month is our local Steampunk estival so I will have a bit more appreciation of the work theyve done. Chil

Again with the hammer! I'm starting to notice the similarities in body mechanics between fine hammering and the drummer's stroke with his/her stick.

Really nice video on beginning leather working! Adding weighted mags to the other side would keep it from pulling the other side up into the armpit and changing the angle of the gun holster fwiw
