CHOOSING CREASERS (FIXED OR ADJUSTABLE?) 

All of my recommended lists are here: www.amazon.com/shop/leathertoolz

Love your detailed videos, thanks kindly for all the hard work!

Thank you, for sharing! Learned exactly what I needed to know. For your time & labor… thanks, again.

It's so enjoyable to see you using an analog creaser. For the part that you overburnt, it seems that part is very strechy leather.

Why do we crease the edge of the leather? Is it just for decoration or has a specific function?

I haven't tried it myself, but I've seen some people on RU-vid heat their creasers on a electric single-burner hotplate, and that has an advantage of adjustable heat. I've used a micro butane torch, but only heat it for a few seconds. That torch has an intense flame.

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS REALLY HELPED ME AS A BEGINNER

palosanto make left handed creasers if you ask them, as i have a set of them, although they are not cheap. the heads seem to be made out of brass too

2nd : I saw some videos where bevelling before creasing... But in some videos, after creasing... Which is the correct way...?

If anyone could help me with my questions, that would be a great relief please. 1. What is special with an alcohol flame/lamp? I mean is the creaser better heated up on the alcohol flame or is it just a convention? Should I sure buy one of these lamps? 2. I am also on the fence if I should buy an individual creaser as demonstrated in the video, or go ahead and purchase one of those 5 in 1 sets that have creaser plus groover blades in them all together?

Thanks for the tutorial - I was wondering if creasing is done before or after finishing the edges? I see some people crease: - Before the edges are beveled. - After beveling but before sanding/finishing. - After beveling and finishing.

Please tell me how to make it

I already have 2 & 2.5... I am thinking of 1.0mm.... But don't know whether it's useful.... Is it for 1 or 2oz leather or skin? Alcohol lamp is not available here in India... I am using my ZIPPO for heating...

What about ceasing with a wing divider and damp leather ? That's what I have been doing.

I wonder if heating a wing divider would give a similar result.

Where did you get your burner?

I use adjustable creaser and fileteuse. When i heat the adjustable creaser, only 20 seconds and press with gently and then Repeat two or three time for perfect result. How about you jun ?

I just bought some creasers .... here's to not burning my house down with the alcohol lamp

You heat your creasers way more than I do. 10-20 seconds is typically plenty for mine. Maybe it is the type of fluid/gas you are using in your lamp.
