Aaron, there must be a million videos that would show the use of one beveler/shader on a line. I think I've watched half of them. The impact of sequentially working the cut line really sets this apart from the rest. It's the nuances of technique that you show that take things to a higher level. Now it's on me to get somewhere slightly better than completely sucking at using a swivel knife.
Tools tips are great. I also noticed your tool racks in the back ground. Hole punches and such. Can you do a video on how you set up your shop and maybe some tips on tool organizations. Keep up the great project and tips video.
Funny that this showed up in my feed. I've been really trying to get into tooling and I'm trying to soak up all the information I can! Thank you for this!
One of the problems I have is a “bunching” of the leather on the opposite side of my bevel tool. So on the opposite side of the cut line I have a bunched up line of leather on the. Cut line edge. I can’t seem to keep the tool from sliding down the cut line as I bevel and crunching that opposite edge. Thoughts?
Thank you! This was very insightful. When trying to get more depth I would find myself hitting a little harder and then having to go back with spoon to smooth out where you could see the backside of the beveler.🤦♂️
So you're placing the flatter side of the beveler against the cut line and moving incrementally. I can't see the placement of the toolhead on the line in order to get started. Sorry, but I'm a beginner.
Question I’m new to all this. Do you wet your leather before stamping and punching or work with it dry? Like in your video here did you have to prep the leather at all? Thanks
